Access to the starting point:
a) From the motorway Ljubljana - Koper, take the exit Brezovica, then continue along the parallel old road towards Vrhnika. After 4. 5 km of driving, from the point where you have entered the old road, turn right at the traffic lights towards the centre of Dragomera. When the lines in the middle end, turn slightly right and immediately straight uphill. Follow it to the crossroads, where you continue right (signposted) and follow a fairly steep road to the parking lot in front of Sveti Lovrenec.
b) From the motorway Koper - Ljubljana, take the exit Vrhnika, then continue along the parallel old road towards Ljubljana. After 8. 5 km of driving, from the town, when you have left the old road, turn left onto the local road, which continues between meadows and fields. After a few 100 m you reach a hamlet of a few houses, where you turn left at a crossroads and the road turns right a few metres further on. Continue mostly straight ahead, then turn right at a junction with rubbish containers. There is a steep climb and a bend to a crossroads, where you continue left and follow a fairly steep road to a parking lot in front of Sveti Lovrenec.
Path description:
From the parking lot, follow the path to the water reservoir, passing it on the left, and as soon as you arrive in the forest, continue right on the path. After a short climb, you come back to logging trail, which you cross and continue along a wide path that leads you to an undistinguished ridge. Continue on the most sloping path, which mostly follows the ridge. With a few short ascents and descents over two small hills, the path finally leads to logging trail. Continue along it to the main ridge of Fat Hill, where there is a crossroads. Continue left towards Ferjanka, right towards Vrh. The gently sloping path leads us in 3 minutes to the foot of Vrhovčev grič, where we turn right onto a lesser path and in 2 minutes we are on Vrhovcevemu hill. You can also climb up from the west by following logging trail.
