Access to the starting point:
Leave the Štajerska motorway at exit Domžale, then follow the signs for Krumperk Castle. The road then leads past the SSK Sam Ihan ski jumps and continues along the high-voltage power line. There is some ascent, and then you reach a small prevala, where you cross the marked Domžale - Murovica trail. Park here in a suitable place by a wooden sign. Park in front of Krumperk Castle and Gorjuša.
Path description:
Near the sign, you will see markings directing you to a dirt track that begins to climb southwards. The moderately steep path leads us mainly through the forest, but higher up we are joined by a few more unmarked paths from nearby starting points. Follow this trail, with few signs at the crossroads, all the way to Veliki vrh, where there is a signing-in box with a signing-in book.
From Veliki vrh, continue straight ahead along the path, which begins to descend gently, and at the crossroads follow the few signs. A little lower, you come out of the forest and climb gently across the meadow to the macadam road, where there is a marked crossroads.
The marked path continues towards Sv. Trinity, and we follow the dirt road for a minute or two to the Church of St. Kunigunda.
From the church, we return to the last crossroads and then continue in the direction of Okleg and St Trinity. After leaving the forest for a few minutes, cross the route of the high-voltage power lines and then reach the Brdo pri Ihan Equestrian Centre, where you get onto the asphalt road. Follow the asphalt road downhill a little to the crossroads where the chapel is located, and then climb up the road that continues to the left of the chapel.
The way ahead is along the asphalt road towards the village Dobovlje. When we reach Dobovlje, an unmarked path branches off to the right towards the church of St Nicholas and towards Oklem, and we continue straight ahead, first slightly downhill, then along a gently sloping road that passes a few houses and through a meadow into the forest. In the forest, at a crossroads, continue straight ahead (right Oklo nad Ihanom), slightly ahead, and at the next crossroads, slightly right, onto a road with yellow and white markings. Before the road becomes asphalted, we join a path on the right that leads past Okleg, and we start to climb past the houses in Žeje. Here, go left at the first crossroads, and when you reach the main road, go right in the direction of Sv. Trojice.
The way forward leads us along the main road, where we walk past the fire station, the sports ground, and then we arrive in the village of Sveta Trojica. We continue along the road, following the signs of the Stations of the Cross, and when the road is laid, we continue to the left towards the Church of St Trinity, which is only a 2-minute walk away. If you continue straight at the last crossroads, after a further minute's walk you will arrive at the Zavrh Café. Starting point - Veliki vrh 20 minutes, Veliki vrh - Tabor 15 minutes, Tabor - Sv. Trojica 1:15.
