Access to the starting point:
a) From the road Medvode - Škofja Loka, at the beginning of Škofja Loka, turn in the direction of Poljanska dolina, then after the Sten tunnel turn right towards Puštal. A little further on, take another right, then go through Puštal, where you go above the Sten tunnel. Just a little further on, a road branches off to the right, crossing the Hrastnica stream. At the crossroads, where there are no parking spaces, the route described above begins.
b) From Poljanska dolina, drive towards Škofja Loka, then before the Sten tunnel turn left towards Puštal, and at the next junction turn right. Continue through Puštal, where you go above the Sten Tunnel. Just a little further on, a road branches off to the right, crossing the Hrastnica stream. At the crossroads, where there are no parking spaces, the route described above begins.
Path description:
From the crossroads, turn right onto the road that crosses the Hrastnica stream via a bridge. A little further on, continue slightly right, and at the trestle take the road slightly left. Follow the ascent to the last house, where you go right and then climb steeply to the edge of the forest.
From the edge of the forest, where there is a cross and a bench, you will have a nice view of Škofja Loka, and the trail turns into the forest and continues along trains and tracks. Higher up, at a few crossroads, follow the markings and the path gradually lays down and leads past another bench and a cross. After a few minutes of crossing, you pass the 652-metre-high peak Mountain pasture on your right, and when you emerge from the forest, you reach an asphalt road which leads up to St Andrew's Church.
