Senično - Zavetišče v Gozdu (steep path)

Access to the starting point:
a) Leave the Gorenjska motorway at exit Kranj West, then follow the signs for Golnik. After Golnik we reach the settlement Senično, and after the sign marking the end of the settlement Golnik, we park at the larger chapel located on the right side of the road.
b) From the road Naklo - Tržič, in the settlement Retnje, turn onto the road in the direction of Križev and Golnik. In Križe, at the stop sign, turn right towards Golnik, and we follow the main road almost to the beginning of the settlement of Senično. About 100 metres before the settlement, on the left side of the road, we see a larger chapel, next to which we park.

Path description:
To the right of the chapel, at the left edge of the meadow, you can see a well-worn path that leads quickly into the lane of the forest. After crossing a small stream, the path turns right and passes into a vast hay field, and we follow the path across the hay field, which leads us after a few minutes to an asphalt road, which we reach at the beginning or end of the village of Spodnje Vetrno. Continue along the asphalt road as it climbs through the village, taking slight right turns at a few small crossroads. Higher up, at the last houses, the road turns right and enters the forest.
At the last house the asphalt ends and we continue along the road, which is closed to public traffic by a road sign. The road soon turns left and we continue straight on cart track towards the Forest. We continue up the wide cart track, which is soon joined by the cart track from Golnik.
After the crossroads, cart track narrows and a steep path branches off slightly to the left, crossing cart track a few more times higher up.
Continue along the above-mentioned path, which, after the last crossing of cart track, turns slightly to the left and leads above a steep ravine. Continue briefly above the steep ridge, then the path goes slightly to the right and forks a few times. Choose the better-beaten path, which will take you to the Shelter in the Woods in a few minutes' walk.
