Path description:
From home, we continue in the direction of Olševa, and the road still leads us on. Behind the house, we first pass a chapel, a cross a little further on, and later a small hunting observation post. When the road, which continues without major changes in altitude, passes into the forest, it splits into two parts, and we continue along the upper right-hand road in the direction of Olševa (slightly to the left, St Anne's Church with the Black Mary 2 minutes). We continue to climb gently to moderately, and then, after a slightly more distinct right-hand bend, the road lays down and leads us out of the forest to mountain pasture Rep or Repija.
After mountain pasture the road descends slightly and then splits after a left turn. Continue along the road slightly to the right, which continues to climb cross-country and then quickly ends and turns into a mountain path. The path continues through the forest, going transversely to the left without any major changes in elevation. The passage through the two anthills is a bit awkward, as the anthills slip on their needles, but otherwise the crossing is easy. When the slope flattens out, you quickly reach a grazing fence, where you see a warning along the path that there is a heavi bull on mountain pasture. Cross the grazing fence and emerge from the woods, where a fine view opens up towards Olševa, but the track becomes a little more difficult to follow at this point. Keep slightly to the right as you cross mountain pasture and then enter lane in the forest, where you descend to a cattle trough. When you emerge from the forest above the trough, keep to the right, and then the path, which passes close to the border, starts to turn left. The cross in the middle of mountain pasture is passed quite high up on the right-hand side of mountain pasture. As the waymarked path returns to the woods, a fainter cart track soon branches off to the right, which can be followed towards Špičasti vrh, while we continue straight on along the wider cart track, which quickly leads to some sort of parking area at the Last Meadow.
From the untidy parking lot, turn left towards Olševa along the path cart track, which goes into the woods after only a few metres. Walk along cart track for about 3 minutes, and then the signs will direct you slightly to the left onto a well-trodden footpath marked with arrows. A little higher up, the markings reappear and the path returns to cart track. The ascent continues on the gradually steeper cart track, which becomes slightly steeper and turns right. From the point where cart track turns to the right, walk along it for only a few more 10 metres, and then the markings will direct you to the left onto another steeper footpath, which will quickly lead you to the Foršnerca hunting bivouac. From the hunting bivouac, continue straight ahead and then after a few metres left up the bank. The path begins to climb steeply through a partly larch forest, which thins out at higher altitudes. After a few minutes' ascent, the path becomes more gentle and leads to a small cirque. A few minutes of moderate climbing follows, and then the path becomes slightly steeper again, leading us over the increasingly scenic slopes of Olševa. Higher up, the path turns left and climbs crosswise to a small ravine, which leads over rubble to the ridge of Olševa.
The ridge is reached at a marked crossroads, where you continue to the right in the direction of Govca, the highest peak of the ridge (to the left, the Spodnje Sleme and Raduha preval). The path continues along the left, mostly southern side of the ridge, where it crosses some steeper and in two places also exposed slopes (especially in wet and snow, a risk of slipping). Further on, the slope becomes slightly flatter and the path climbs a little steeper towards the ridge (on the left, the Spodnje Sleme and Raduha preval). With beautiful views of the mountains above the Logarska dolina valley, you quickly reach a kind of side ridge, which takes you up to the main ridge of Olševa in a few minutes. Here the path turns to the left and after some 10 steps of further walking leads us to Govca.
