Path description:
After the Kovač Inn, continue right into the forest, where you will immediately reach a crossroads of two marked trails. Take the left path marked Kovačeva steza (slightly to the right Westrova pot), which begins to climb crosswise to the left. After a short climb, the Learning Trail branches off slightly to the left, and we continue slightly to the right along the Kovačeva steza (Kovac's Trail). Higher up, the path bends slightly to the left and then back to the right, where it gradually turns into a small erosion gully. There is a short, slightly steeper climb and then you reach cart track, where you continue to the right (Šmarna gora on the left).
Continue along the Svoboda Trail, which turns into a cross path at cart track. Cross the occasionally steeper slopes of Grmada for a while, then join the aforementioned Wester path.
When you reach the above-mentioned path, continue to the left, and follow the forested ridge path, which is joined by the Mazi path a little higher on the right, all the way to the top of Grmada, which you reach without any major problems.

We can extend the trip to the following destinations: Šmarna gora
