Briše - Polhograjska Gora (Sveti Lovrenc) (gentle path)

Access to the starting point:
From Horjul or Dobrova, drive to Polhov Gradec, then continue to Gorenjska vas. Just after Polhovi Gradec, at the end of the village of Briše, you will see the Church of the Holy Three Kings by the roadside and just a few metres before it, signs for the Briše Spa, which will direct you left onto a macadam road, which you will then follow for about 100 metres to the parking lot in front of the Briše Spa natural baths.

Path description:
From the parking lot, return to the main road and from there continue right towards Polhov Gradec. After a few minutes' walk along the main road, we reach the bus stop in Briše, where signs for Praproče and Polhograjska Gora direct us left onto the ascending asphalt road. Continue along the narrow and ascending road for some time and then reach a small hamlet where the road from Polhov Gradec joins from the right.
Just a few metres after the crossroads, which many people overlook, the asphalt road turns left and crosses a small ravine. At this point, the signs for St. Lawrence point us right to cart track, which begins to climb along the torrential ravine. After a short climb, at a small crossroads, continue left and start climbing steeply up the sometimes slightly muddier cart track. The higher cart track makes some serpentines and then joins the forest road from Prapročy. When you reach this road, continue to the right and walk along it to a nearby crossroads, where another road from Praproci joins from the left.
Here, continue past a bench, which is quickly followed by a ramp.
Continue towards St. Lovrenc (left up St. Lovrenc "difficult path") on the road over which there is a lock. The road then starts to climb steeply and after a few minutes of further walking leads to a large rocky peak (especially after rain or at the end of winter there is a danger of falling rocks). Here the road briefly lays down and then passes into the forest where it starts to climb steeply. The steepness subsides at Logar, where the road ends. Here we get a nice view towards the Karawanks part, and we continue slightly left and continue the climb past the chapel on the path that goes into the forest. There is a moderate climb through the forest and the path leads us to a ridge with a beautiful view to the west. Here, continue left and after a few steps of further walking, you will reach the top of Polhograjska Gora.
