Access to the starting point:
From the motorway Ljubljana - Koper take the exit Vrhnika, then at the first traffic light turn left in the direction of Logatec. Follow the old road towards Logatec for just 10 m, then the signs for Horjul point you to the right. Continue towards Horjul, and follow the road until the signs for Stara Vrhnika point to the left.

Path description:
From the crossroads at the firemen's lodge, continue straight ahead and follow the gently ascending road, which leads past St Lenart's Church to the crossroads at the NOB monument. Here, continue to the right and walk along the ascending road to the upper part of Stara Vrhnika, where, at the end of the road, the mountain direction signs for Mountain pasture and Kuren direct you right onto a wide mountain path. Continue through the forest for a while, then cross the tarmac road twice. Just a little higher up, you come to a marked crossroads where you continue straight on in the route Mountain pasture (right Kuren 5 minutes). The path continues through the forest, climbing gently to moderately. At a higher altitude, we approach the road, and the waymarked path turns left at this point and climbs steeply for a short distance. Only a few minutes higher, the waymarked trail is fully laid out and leads to a macadam road leading to the Zavetišču na Mountain pasture above Vrhnika. Follow the road to the left, and after less than 5 minutes' further walking it will lead you to the top, in the middle of which stands a wooden lookout tower.
