Access to the starting point:
From Ljubljana, take the motorway to Koper and take the Unec exit. At the junction, turn right in the route Mountain pasture, where you will take a sharp left at the junction towards Postojna (you can also take the old road to get here). Continue through Mountain pasture and turn right at the place where you will see the signs for Strmca and Studeno (you can also take the old road to get here). Continue through Mountain pasture and at the place where you will see signs for Strmca and Studeno, turn right. The road soon leads to the next crossroads, where it says Postojna on the left, Strmca and Studeno on the right, and nothing on the right. Turn right here (towards the quarry) and drive only 30m to where a worse road branches off to the left, along which we park.
From Postojna take the old road towards Ljubljana. Shortly after the village of Mačkovec, the road to Strmca turns sharp right and turns left. This road then soon leads to the next crossroads, where you continue straight towards the quarry. Do not follow this road to the quarry as after 30m we leave it, because we turn left onto a worse road along which we park.
Path description:
From the parking lot, continue along the worse road, but only as far as a small waterworks building. Here, the cart track road branches off to the right and after a few metres climbs steeply. Cart track, which runs through the forest, is very steep at the beginning but the steepness eases after a few minutes. This is followed by a moderate climb up cart track, which after a while joins another wider one. Here continue left on cart track, which climbs slightly and after a few minutes joins the next cart track, which is almost a worse road. Here you can see some old military tunnels along the way. This road then leads quickly to the Church of St Mary.
To the west of the church, near the forest road, we see cart track, which crosses the slopes to the west. Follow the above-mentioned cart track, which leads higher out of the wods onto the grassy slopes, where it disappears. Continue ascending along one of the many, mostly less visible, paths leading westwards. The path soon leads to the Petričev hrib lookout (the peak can also be bypassed on the left), from which you descend to a small indistinct saddle between the two peaks. From the saddle, there is only a short climb up a grassy slope.
In fine weather, despite the many paths, orientation is not particularly difficult, but in fog it is almost impossible.

Danes sva prehodila opisano pot. Super izlet in lepi razgledi. Mimo cerkve Svete Marije pelje slovenska Jakobova pot.
