Path description:
We start the trail across a small bridge, at which we see the signs for Dom na Farbanci. Then climb through the forest, first following the cart track, and higher up on a well-maintained footpath that leads past the Light Well. Above the well, cross another cart track, and then the relatively steep path slopes down a little and becomes an undistinguished valley. From the valley, soon turn slightly to the right, then first join the cart track, and a few steps higher still, a dirt road, which quickly leads to the Dom mountaineers na Farbanca (The House of the Mountaineers on Farbanca).
From Dom na Farbanci, continue left off the left-hand road, where the path takes you past a wooden hut into the forest. Through the forest, first climb along the mountain path, then reach the wide cart track, which continues the relatively steep climb. At a higher level, cart track turns sharp left, and at a higher level it turns slightly to the right, where it also lays down and splits into two parts. Continue along the slight left-hand one, which is also marked. The fairly flat path leads past a small pothole, then quickly reaches a forest road, which is then climbed to the nearby marked crossroads Borovnjak, where the path to Tolsti vrh branches off to the right, and we continue along the left road in the direction of Čreta.
Walk through the forest for a few minutes, and when you come out of the forest, turn left at the crossroads in the direction of Čreta.
There is a short climb up to the church of St Katarina, and then we walk through the courtyard of a nearby house to the next crossroads, where another path from the settlement of Kokarje joins us on the left.
Continue slightly to the right in the direction of Črete (right Dom na Čreti) and follow cart track, which takes you into the forest. When the path is laid, it leads us past the chapel and the NOB memorial and we are already at the Church of the Holy Mother of God, from which we have a beautiful view.
From the church we continue straight on, crossing the pasture fence and the path leads us into the forest. In the forest, the path splits into two parts, we choose the right and in a few 10 steps of further walking we reach a nondescript peak.
