Hlipovec - Komen

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. The ascending road leads us higher to the hamlet of individual farms, and we follow it in the direction of the partisan hospital and Komno (on the Kamen signs). The road, which has since become macadam, leads us higher to a crossroads, where a road closed to traffic branches off to the sharp right, leading to the Hlipovec saddle. Park in a suitable place near the crossroads.

Path description:
From the starting point, continue along the road closed to traffic, which soon turns off to the left onto Travnik. We continue straight ahead and follow the road for about 10 minutes, when it leads us to the Hlipovec saddle.
From the saddle, turn slightly right in the direction of the home at Smrekovec, Komna (Kamen). The initial part of the path leads us along cart track, which soon leads to a crossroads, where we continue upwards to the left. Cart track soon turns into a footpath which starts to climb steeply. The path continues to climb steeply upwards, mostly through the forest. After half an hour's walk from Hlipovec, you come out of the forest and see a wooden chapel (dedicated to St Cyril and Methodius) at which there is a crossroads. Bear left up towards the summit of Komno, which is reached in a few minutes' walk along the panoramic top slope of the mountain.
