Access to the starting point:
From Horjul or Dobrova, drive to Polhov Gradec, then continue to Črnji Vrho. Just at the point where you see the sign for the end of Polhov Gradec, turn right in the direction of Macka graben and the Church of St Ursula. Just after the crossroads, park in a suitable place on the roadside.
Path description:
From the starting point, continue along the asphalted road, which soon leads to a crossroads, where you continue right in the route Setnica (straight Mačkov graben). The ascent continues on a slightly steeper road, which after a few minutes of walking leads to the place where you leave the road. Markings direct us slightly left on a footpath that starts to climb steeply through the forest. After a few minutes of further walking, we leave the forest and the path leads us to the open door farm at Mehaček.
Before the agritourism, turn right onto the marked path, which leads past a few more houses, and then, when the houses end, you arrive at a crossroads where the path to Grmada continues to the right, and the path to St Ursula branches off to the left.
Continue slightly to the right, following cart track, which starts to climb slightly and after a few steps enters the forest. Shortly after entering the forest, the mountain signs for Grmada direct you left onto a footpath which begins to climb steeply, first through the forest and then across increasingly scenic grassy slopes. Higher up, the path joins us from the left, past St Ursula's, and just a little further on we arrive at the top of Mala Grmada.
