Smrečje - Koča na Vrhu Svetih Treh Kraljev (via Jereb)

Access to the starting point:
a) From the motorway Ljubljana - Koper take the exit Vrhnika and then continue along the parallel old road towards Logatec. Soon you will see signs for Stara Vrhnika, which will direct you to the right. Follow the road to Stara Vrhnika and on to Podlipa and Veliki Ligojna. After Stara Vrhnika, leave the main road and continue driving to the left in the direction of Podlipa and Smrečje. After Podlipa the road starts to climb steeply, and higher up the road from Horjul joins from the right. Here we continue slightly to the left, and occasionally follow the slightly narrower road to a sign marking the end of the municipality of Vrhnika. Here we park in a suitable space on the roadside.
b) From Horjul, drive past Vrzdenec towards Gorenjska vas. At the first sharp right turn, the road to the village of Šentjošt nad Horjul branches off to the left. Take this road and follow it to the next crossroads, where you turn right (left down Vrhnika). The road then soon leads to the village of Smrečje. We follow it through the village and then park in one of the small car parks along the road.
c) From Škofja Loka take the regional road to Žiri and from there take the road that goes up along the river Račeva towards the villages Smrečje and Žirovski Vrh. Follow the road towards Smrečje and the Peak of the Holy Three Kings. Before reaching the village Smrečje, the road turns sharp right towards the Peak of the Holy Three Kings. Park in one of the roadside car parks near the junction.

Path description:
From the starting point, continue along the asphalt road, which begins to descend moderately towards Žire, and after a short descent leads us to a marked crossroads, where we continue left up towards the Top of the Holy Three Kings. The road then leads us out of the forest, where the road to Rovte branches off to the left, and we continue straight ahead and follow the road to where it returns to the forest. Here you will see a marked footpath on the left, which climbs moderately through the forest. Cross the tarmac road and join it a little higher up.
Continue ascending the asphalt road, which is joined on the right by a marked path from Račevski jezero. Just a little higher up, the road splits into two parts, and we continue on the right-hand road in the direction of Vrh Svetih Treh Kraljev and Petrač (the left-hand path is slightly shorter). We walk along the road for only a short time, and then the signs direct us to the left to the ascending and, in the upper part of the road, quite scenic cart track. Higher up, cart track is laid out and passes the Jereb farm on the left. Above the farm, join the asphalt road, which will take you in a few minutes to the mountain hut at the top of Sveti Treh Kraljev.
