Zabukovje - Sveti Jošt above Kranj

Access to the starting point:
From Ljubljana, we drive to Kranj along the old road. Turn left at the first traffic light before the road starts to descend. Then follow the road to the crossroads, where the signpost points right towards Sveta Marjeta. Follow this road, which circles the slopes below Šmarjetno gora, to a crossroads where a signpost points left up towards Zabukovje. The road then soon leads to the crossroads, where we continue along the left-hand road, parking a little higher up in one of the roadside car parks.
From the Gorenjska direction, turn right at the traffic lights at the top of the hill and follow the description from the Ljubljana direction.

Path description:
From the parking lot, continue along the road leading to the village. There is a crossroads in the village, where you continue straight up behind the goat house on the left side of the crossroads. At the point where the asphalt ends, signs for Jošta direct us left up the meadow. After a few steps, the path leads into the forest, where it starts to climb. The path initially follows the cart track, which changes slightly higher up into a footpath that climbs steeply for a short time. The path then leads to a crossroads, where it continues to the right. The way forward for some time follows the cart track, which is soon abandoned as the signs direct us upwards to the left. After a few more minutes of walking, the path leads us to the chapel. Here we continue upwards to the left and after a short climb the path leads us to the next chapel at the Puščava home. Continue to the right (or left) and follow the path as it climbs up the top slope of the mountain to the summit, which is reached after a 5-minute walk.
