Access to the starting point:
Take the Dolenjska road in Ljubljana, where at the junction with Galjevica turn north-east towards the nearby Rudnik health centre and the Rakovnica church. You can park at a suitable place next to the church.
Path description:
From the parking lot, continue along the asphalt road, which turns left in front of the church, and we walk along it to the wooden cross, where we turn right on cart track. Cart track turns into a meadow and immediately turns into a moderately steep path which climbs along the edge of a view meadow. At first, the path still offers beautiful views of the Crab Church, Rakovnik, the Ljubljana Marshes and Krim, but then it gradually turns into a forest. The path continues along the edge of the forest (here we join the path past the chapel on our right) and crosses the slopes to the right. Before reaching a bench with a nice view, turn left into the dense forest, onto a path with green-yellow markings. Further along, the path passes the lesser-known Zeleni vrh (the peak above the shooting range) on the right, where it becomes even more marked. After a few minutes of walking, the path leads to a macadam road leading to the nearby observatory at Golovec. Follow the road to the right to the Golovec Observatory, or a sharp left turn.
At the bend, which is located in the immediate vicinity of the observatory, you will see an information board for the Golovec forest trail, which directs you to the wide and initially folded cart track. After a few minutes' walk, cart track climbs moderately for a short time and then gradually begins to descend. After a few minutes of descending, you will reach a forest road, just cross it, and then join the Path of Remembrance and Comradeship. Follow the trail to the left, and after a few short ascents it will lead you to Črni hrib (the highest point of the trail).
