Path description:
From the starting point we continue along the road in the direction of Kranj, where we walk between the houses of the hamlet of Nova vas, when we reach a small crossroads, where the road to the left branches off to house numbers 2, 4, 6, 8, 10. . . , and we continue to the right on the side road, when a few 10 steps further we arrive at the edge of the forest and we continue along the cart track, which a little further on begins to climb through the forest.
Continue up the relatively steep cart track, which leads us higher to a small crossroads. Continue along the wider right cart track, which soon splits again. Continue again along the right-hand cart track, which is also marked by a small wooden signpost with the inscription Rovnik. At the next crossroads, take the left-hand cart track, which is only followed for a short distance, because then you see a beaten track on the left-hand side, which begins to climb moderately through the forest. The path leads us higher up to the lookout, where we cross cart track, and we continue along the path, which in a few minutes of further walking takes us to the forested peak of Rovnik.
