Access to the starting point:
From the Ljubljana - Maribor motorway, take the Šentrupert exit and then continue to Mozirje, Ljubno ob Savinji and the Logar valley. When you arrive in Ljubno, you will see signs for Smrekovec, which will direct you to the right into the centre of the town, where you will turn left onto a slightly narrower road that begins to climb above the town. Before the end of Ljubno, we will see signs for the cemetery, which will direct us to the left onto a slightly steeper road, from which we will then turn left again towards the cemetery. Park in the large parking lot next to the cemetery and the local church.
Path description:
From the parking lot, walk across the cemetery to the other side of the walls, where you will find a marked path that starts a little lower down in the centre of Ljubno. Follow the path to the right and it will quickly lead you under the electricity pylon and the nearby chapel. From the chapel, continue in the same direction and ascend a gently sloping meadow, over which a less visible path leads. At a higher level, cross a grazing fence and take the cart track, which is followed up to the left. Continue up through the forest, crossing a dirt road, to reach a memorial erected in memory of a young boy.
The path continues to climb through the forest for some time, then widens into the cart track, which leads to the nearby Sedelšak farm, with beautiful views.
Above the farm, more precisely at the chapel, leave the road and cross the hayfield and climb up to the edge of the forest, where you can see the wide but steep cart track. Continue along the above-mentioned cart track, which quickly lays down and turns slightly to the right. After a short cross-climb, you arrive at a marked crossroads, where you continue left towards the church of St Primož (on the right, Koča na Travniku). From the crossroads, cross the slopes to the left for a few minutes, then exit the forest, where you approach a closer forest road.
Continue between the road and the old house and walk across the meadow to the Church of St Primož, which offers a beautiful view of the surrounding hills.
