Access to the starting point:
From the Ljubljana Eastern Bypass, take the Ljubljana - East exit and continue along Zaloška Road towards Zaloga. Continue along the main road, and then, just 300 metres after crossing the Ljubljanica River, park in the gravel parking lot next to the railway line.
Path description:
From the parking lot, head to the underpass under the railway line, above which are the signs "Debni vrh, Stari grad and Pečar". Immediately after the underpass, continue left and after a short cross-climb the path leads to a crossroads by a small stream.
We continue on the right path, and the left path also leads towards Debni vrh. From the crossroads, we first climb steeply along the stream, and then the path turns to the right. The path becomes less steep and quickly leads us to the left turn where the next crossroads is.
Here we leave the wider well-trodden path and focus right on the narrower steep path where we are guided by the signs "Hard variant" on Debni vrh. The path here climbs very steeply and leads us to the ridge of Kašeljski Hill. The path continues along the ridge and climbs very steeply for some time. The path is marked with red lines and passes through the forest the whole time. Higher up, the steepness eases a little and leads us to an undistinguished peak in the ridge of Kašeljski Hill. There is a short descent, and then the normal, less steep path joins us from the left.
The path continues along the wooded ridge and ascends and descends gently a few times. Occasionally, a small view opens up through the forest, especially in the direction of Ljubljana. We continue along the ridge and the path from the old Osterberg Castle joins us from the left. There is a slightly steeper climb where you will see a cross or chapel in a hollow tree trunk along the way. The path then leads to the top, in the middle of which stands a wooden lookout tower.
