Path description:
From the starting point, the path to Kopa, Davovec and Krvavec branches off to the right, and we walk along the asphalt road to a crossroads some 10 metres away, where we continue along the lower right road (left Štefanja gora through Spodnja Štefanja vas) in the direction of Mežnar and the church. After the crossroads, you quickly reach the first houses in the hamlet of Zgornja Štefanja vas, and then, when the houses have finished, continue along the slightly right-hand road in the direction of Možjanca (left St Stephen's Church on Štefanja Gora). The road continues along the pasture for a while, and then passes into the forest. There is a slight descent, then the forest thins out and the path opens up to some views of Gorenjska. After a few minutes of crossing, you reach the first houses, then a crossroads, where you continue to the right towards the Church of St Nicholas (1 minute), or straight towards the Rožmarin cafeteria (2 minutes).
