Path description:
There is a marked crossroads near the starting point, from where you take the lower road in the route Dom na Farbanci (slightly left Čreta via Tajna). The route initially takes you alongside the sports ground, where you continue straight ahead or slightly left at an unmarked crossroads. On the other side of ŠRC Laze, the road turns into cart track, which turns into a forest. Follow the wide cart track in the direction of the markings at a few forks, then at the point where cart track turns right and crosses the stream, continue left on the steep path. The track quickly becomes level, and then at the crossroads follow the markings again. A little further on, the climb ends and there is a descent to a nearby asphalt road, which is followed to the right, and after passing two houses, you quickly reach the mountain direction signs, where you continue left over a wooden bridge, onto a footpath in the direction of Doma na Farbanci. Then climb through the forest, first following the cart track, and higher up the well-maintained footpath, which leads past the Light Well. Above the well, cross another cart track, and then the relatively steep path slopes down a little and becomes an undistinguished valley. From the valley, soon turn slightly to the right, then first join the cart track, and a few steps higher still, a dirt road, which quickly leads to the Dom mountaineers na Farbanca (The House of the Mountaineers on Farbanca).
