Ljubljana (Koseze) - Cankarjev vrh (Rožnik) (on footpath)

Access to the starting point:
a) From the Ljubljana Western Bypass, take the Ljubljana Brdo exit, then continue driving towards the ZOO. Continue along the road Pot za Brdo, then turn left at the traffic lights in the direction of the zoo. After about 1 km of further driving, when you reach the crossroads with the Eternal Route, turn left towards Šiška and the Centre (the zoo on the right). Continue along the Eternal Route, where, opposite the football field, a macadam road turns off to the right, leading to Mostec. Continue straight ahead here, and then after 100 m turn right onto another dirt road, where you park.
b) From the junction of Celovška and Šišenska roads, continue along Šišenska road, then at the junctions continue straight ahead or in the direction of the ZOO. When you reach the Eternal Route, after about 200 m you will come to a pedestrian crossing and a small crossroads. After the crossing on the left is our starting point, but as you are not allowed to turn left off the road here, drive a little further to where the carriageway to Mostec branches off to the left. Turn left here, turn around and follow the Eternal Route back to the pedestrian crossing, where you now turn right onto the gravel road, along which you park.

Path description:
From the starting point, where there is drinking water from a tap, continue straight ahead, first crossing an asphalt path for pedestrians and cyclists and then continuing along a macadam road. There are still some parking opportunities further along the road, but we soon turn right onto a wide sandy path that first gently descends to a small stream. After the stream the path starts to climb a little and then quickly leads us to the recreation park Mostec, where there is a guest house, playground, bowling green, etc.
From the benches and tables at the guest house, continue right over the little bridge to the nearby games, over which you will emerge onto a dirt road. Follow the road to the left, and when the road turns left, a minor road branches off in a straight line, and we continue right here onto a well-trodden footpath that begins to climb through the woods. After about 10 minutes of climbing, we come to a wide cart track, which we follow to the right, and quickly reach a dirt road. Follow the road to the right and quickly climb up to the guesthouse, a few 10 m further on, and the church on Cankarjev vrh.
Description and pictures refer to the situation in 2015 (July).
