Access to the starting point:
From the Ljubljana - Maribor motorway, take the Šentrupert exit and follow the road towards Logarska dolina. In the village Ljubno ob Savinji, the sign for Smrekovec points to the right. The road then takes you through the centre of the village, where you turn left again after the Smrekovec sign. The road then leads to Ljubenske Rastke, where you turn left at the crossroads near the church. Follow this road to a sharp right turn, in the middle of which a macadam road splits off straight ahead, which you follow to the mountain signs for Žep, Robnik and Lovsko hut. Park in one of the smaller parking areas along the road (a more suitable space is slightly higher up).
Path description:
First, cross the Žep stream with the help of a wooden bridge, and then the mountain signs direct you to the initially quite overgrown and steep footpath. The path quickly passes into a dense spruce forest, where it continues to climb steeply. Soon we emerge from the forest onto grassy slopes, where the path disappears. Here, a little higher up, you will notice a marking on a tree that directs you straight up the slope. After a short climb, cross cart track and the path will lead you to the ruins of a former farm.
Continue along the poorly visible but marked path, which climbs parallel to a slightly wider track. Higher up, the path joins the cart track, which immediately splits. Continue sharp left along the slightly steeper cart track, which turns into a footpath higher up, and soon leads to a forest road, which you follow to the right. After a few minutes' walk along the road, we emerge from the forest, where we see the vast Počka mountain pasture in front of us.
