Path description:
From the crossroads, continue along the right-hand road in the route Sankaška koča (slightly to the left Tinčkova koča, Dom pri izviru Završnice and Dom na Zelenici), where you cross the Završnica stream just over the bridge. Continue cross-climbing, crossing a few streams in between. Higher up, the trail gently descends and then climbs moderately to the Kališča pass, where it reaches the marked Begunje - Poljška mountain pasture trail.
Leave the road at the pass and continue slightly to the right in the direction of St Peter's (to the left Poljška mountain pasture and Roblek's home, straight down the unmarked path to Begunje through the Blatnice gorge) and start climbing parallel to the dirt road, which you cross at a higher altitude, just before the end of the road. A few 10 steps further on, leave the marked path leading further towards St. Peter's and start descending and continue walking slightly to the right on the unmarked cart track, which continues crosswise to the right. At a nearby crossroads, choose the lower cart track, and then there is a bit more scrambling. When the traverse ends, cart track becomes a forest path, which takes a few minutes to climb to the summit of the lookout.
