Access to the starting point:
a) From Medvode or Škofja Loka, take the old road to Kranj, then go downhill to the roundabout where the main road takes the first exit to the right and then over the bridge over the Sava River, and we take the second exit in the direction of Besnice and Šmarjetna gora. We pass through an underpass and take a sharp right turn, then at a nearby junction we take a sharp left in the direction of Šmarjetna gora. The road then climbs steeply, then at the next junction we turn right, again in the direction of Šmarjetna gora, and then park in a suitable place on the roadside.
b) From the motorway Ljubljana - Jesenice, take the exit Kranj - East, and then continue in the direction of Škofja Loka at all subsequent junctions. When approaching the underpass where the road to Škofja Loka passes under the old Ljubljana - Kranj road, we continue to the right in the direction of Jesenice and Kranja, and then after a short climb join the above mentioned old road, which we continue along towards Jesenice, and then descend the hill to the roundabout where the main road takes the first exit to the right and then over the bridge over the Sava River, and we continue to the second exit in the direction of Besnice and Šmarjetna gora. We pass through an underpass and take a sharp right turn, then at a nearby junction we take a sharp left in the direction of Šmarjetna gora. The road then climbs steeply, then at the next junction we turn right, again in the direction of Šmarjetna gora, and then park in a suitable place on the roadside.

Path description:
From the starting point, continue along the asphalt road, which begins to climb up the slope called Kalvarija. The asphalt road, which makes some serpentines and from which we occasionally get some views towards Kranj and the Alps, leads us higher up under a small pass where the path splits.
Continue left up the cart track, which after a few 10 steps leads us to a crossroads where the path from Stražišče joins us on the left, and we continue right, along a path that runs parallel to the asphalt road. A few steps further on, we return to the road for a few steps, and then continue left up the macadam path, which continues to climb moderately. Higher up, the path leads out of the woods, where you pass the outbuildings on the lower side, and then soon reach the tarmac road, which, with fine views, takes you up to the top of Šmarjetna gora, where the Church of St Margaret and the Bellevue Hotel are situated.
