Lipa - Grmada (path via Peski)

Access to the starting point:
a) From the Ljubljana - Jesenice motorway, take the Ljubljana - Šmartno exit and then continue to Tacno. In Tacno, just before the road crosses the Sava River via a bridge, turn slightly right in the direction of Pirnič. A little after Ljubljana ends, we arrive in Vikrče, and a little further on in Spodnje Pirniče, and we follow the road to the Lipa club, where we park in a larger parking lot for visitors to Šmarna gora (parking price is 1. 5 eur/h - December 2012).
b) From Šentvid we drive to Tacen, and then immediately after the bridge over the Sava River we turn left towards Pirničy. Just after Ljubljana ends, we arrive in Vikrče, a little further on in Spodnje Pirniče, and we follow the road to the Lipa club, where we park in the larger parking lot for visitors Šmarna gora (parking price is 1,5 eur/h - December 2012).
c) From Medvode, drive to Zgornje and then Spodnje Pirniče, and follow the road to Club Lipa, where you park in the larger parking lot for visitors of Šmarna gora (parking price is 1,5 eur/h - December 2012).

Path description:
From the parking lot, follow the marked path starting on the south side of the parking lot. The path first leads through a passage between spruce trees and then passes through fields and meadows, over which you climb steeply. After a few minutes, the path enters a forest, through which it gradually starts to climb more steeply. We climb steeply for a while, and then the path lays down and leads us to a place where we join a relatively steep road leading from Zavrh towards Šmarna Gora.
We continue our ascent along the road, which leads us past the NOB monument and a few metres further on, past the plague or Turks' sign. Higher up, the road turns slightly more to the left and leads us out of the forest onto the viewing slopes. With a view of the Šmarna gora and Kamnik Savinja Alps peak, we quickly reach the Žumberačka gora homestead, from which we follow a short walk to the marked crossroads Na Sedlu.
From the saddle, continue right down towards Tacno (Šmarna gora on the left), and when the path turns into the forest, continue right towards Grmada. The ascent continues along a slightly steeper path, which first climbs through the forest, then turns into a partially overlooked ridge, which in a few 10 steps of further walking climbs to the top of Grmada.
