Access to the starting point:
a) First drive to Logatec, then continue driving towards Idrija. When the most winding part of the road towards Idrija ends, you will reach the hamlet of Podroteja, where you leave the main road and continue driving to the left in the direction of Divje jezero and Idrijska Bela. Follow the road for another 100 m, then park in the parking lot next to the information boards for the nearby Divje jezero.
b) From Most na Soči or Podbrdo, drive to Bača near Modre, then continue towards Idrija and on to Logatec. At the end of Idrija, at the hamlet of Podroteja, leave the main road and turn right in the direction of Divje jezero and Idrijska Bela. Follow the road for another 100 m, then park in the parking lot next to the information signs for the nearby Divje jezero.
Path description:
From the parking lot at Divje jezero we continue along the road, we walk along it for only a few 10 m, and then the signs for the path by the Raka direct us to the right to the footbridge, over which we walk to the other side of the Idrijka. On the other side of the Idrijka you reach a footpath, and we follow it to the left (Idrija on the right). We continue along the gently sloping path, which continues along the canal through which the water flows. The canal was built to serve the needs of a mine pump. The canal ends at the dam, which is reached after a few minutes, and we continue along a wide path that continues along the Idrijca River. We continue along a rather steep slope, but as the path is wide enough it does not cause us any problems on land. A little further on, we arrive at a marked crossroads where the path to the right branches off towards the Struga summit, and we continue in the same direction. Just a little further on, a second path joins us from the left from the road along which we parked below (this path is part of the ICPP and leads on towards Zadlog - access along this path is blocked due to a closed footbridge (March 2012)), and we continue straight on here and follow the cross path to a nearby bench, along which there are direction signs.
Here we continue to the right and start climbing, first moderately and then steeply, through the forest. Higher up, the path bends to the left, where it continues along a scrambly path surrounded by sparse scrub (the area called Modrasovše). We continue the cross-climb to the left and the path leads us to a beautiful viewpoint on Prižnica (so the inscription on the rock, the real Prižnica should be a little higher and a little off the mountain path), which opens up a beautiful view of the Zgornja Idrijca Landscape Park and the Idrijca River deep below.
Continue past the bench and continue along the path, which gradually begins to descend crosswise. After a short, steep descent, you reach cart track, where the markings point sharply to the right. The ascent continues along cart track, which continues to climb moderately through the forest, and higher up it approaches a rock edge, which is slightly off the path (if you have the will, you can walk to the edge of the "Prižnica", which offers a beautiful and precipitous view). Higher up, the marked trail passes the nearby hay fields on the right, and then climbs up to the Zagrebenc farm. From the farm, continue slightly to the right and cross the meadow to the 763 m high Zagrebenc (also Čekovnik on maps).
