Podmeja - Dom pod Reško planino

Access to the starting point:
a) From the motorway Ljubljana - Celje, take the Šempeter exit and continue towards Prebold and later Trbovlje. Follow the serpentine road to the Podmeja Pass, where you will park in the parking lot near the hunting lodge.

b) From Zasavje, first drive to Trbovlje, then continue to Prebold. When you reach the Podmeja Pass, park in the parking lot near the hunting lodge.

Path description:
From the Podmeja pass, head west on the worse macadam road towards Svete mountain pasture. After some 10 steps leave the road and continue along cart track, which climbs gently through the forest. Higher up, cart track becomes completely flat and gradually changes from an undefined ridge to an axial side. Here the marked cart track turns sharp right (poorly marked) and starts to descend more visibly. At the end of the descent, you come to a wide cart track, which you follow in a few steps to an asphalted road, which you follow to the right. Next, while looking at Kum and climbing past some houses, ascend to a marked crossroads, where continue right towards Sveta Mountain pasture - along the road (straight ahead Sveta mountain pasture - along the footpath).

There is a cross-climb over a scenic slope, and then the road turns into the forest. A little further on, a view opens up to the right towards Golava, Kamnik and Mrzlica, and the road leads to a marked crossroads.

Continue to the right towards Reška planina, Dom pod Reško planino, Gradiše and Šmigl's cottage (slightly to the left Vrhe, Sveta Mountain pasture, Čemšeniška mountain pasture and Krvavica), where shortly after the crossroads you will see a sign indicating that we are in the brown bear habitat area (Vrhe, Sveta Mountain pasture, Čemšeniška mountain pasture and Krvavica). The route continues along the asphalt road, passing first Nacetov vrh (828 m) on the left and then Jamškov vrh (811 m) on the right.
When you reach the saddle between Jamškovi vrh and Reška planina, continue right from the marked crossroads in the direction of Dom pod Reško planino (slightly left Reška planina along the ridge, Šmiglova zidanica, Prebold and Grajska vas).
Then cross the southern slopes of Reška planina, where at first you continue walking without any major changes in altitude, but after the information board on the geological composition of the soil you start to descend more visibly. The road descends mostly to the Church of the Assumption, where there is a marked crossroads.
The path to Reška planina continues to the left, and we continue to the right on the path that continues between the church and the tarmac road. There is some more downhill on a slightly steeper footpath, and then we arrive back on the road, cross it and we are at the mountain pasture Mountain House under Reška.
