Path description:
From where we parked, we first walk to the Rogar Tourist Farm, and from there we continue along the marked path towards Olševa. Above the farm, a beautiful view opens up, and the path soon turns into a forest. Climb through the forest for a few minutes and then cross the macadam road, where the path from the Strevc Tourist Farm joins from the left.
Continue in the direction of Potočka zijalka, Obel kamna and Govce. Continue along the well-trodden and gradually steeper path, which reaches the state border at a higher altitude. After a few minutes of steep climbing, the path from Austria joins us on the left.
Continue to the right and after another 10 minutes of climbing, you will reach the archaeological site Potočka zijalka.
Continue on the marked path, which bypasses the cave on the right and climbs up the right side of a fairly steep ravine using the fixed safety gear. A little further on, cross the gully with the help of wedges and then climb steeply out of the gully. The path continues to be quite steep, and with every metre gained in altitude it becomes more and more scenic.
At a small ridge, the path splits and we continue straight towards Govca (left Obel kamen). Then we cross the steep slopes of Olševa, and on the more exposed parts, we are helped by a few rocks. The path then turns left and leads to a marked crossroads.
This time, continue left towards Obel kamen (straight Govca), where you first cross the slopes to the left and then start climbing steeply. The last part of the climb before reaching the ridge is technically more difficult and not guarded. Above the short, difficult part, you reach a scenic ridge, along and over which you continue until you reach Obel kamen, which you can identify by the boundary stone with No XXII 1.
From the summit you can continue to the cross about 10 minutes away, where there is also a registration box.
Starting point - Potočka zijalka 1:05, Potočka zijalka - Obel kamen 1:05.
