Access to starting point:
We leave the highway Zagreb-Varaždin at the exit Sesvete, Dugo Selo. We drive to Sesvete and then ahead to Zagreb.
The road Dubrava, which runs through the eponymous part of Zagreb we leave at a big crossroad and we go right in the direction of Miroševec (at that crossroad there is McDonalds and a large gas station INA).
Further, we drive towards the north in the direction of the cemetery Miroševečko groblje (by the path there are two roundabouts, where we follow the signs for cemetery). After the cemetery we go through park Grad mladih and we come to town Miroševec.
We go on the main road and at the end of the settlement (beginning of Trnava isn't marked) we come to the next roundabout, from which we go straight. We come in the village Popovec (this village isn't marked with a sign as well) and we park at the smaller crossroad just before the spot where the road starts ascending steeply.
The starting point is quite hard to find. I recommend the use of GPS.
Path description:
From the parking lot in Popovec we go ahead, orientation is easy because we can see Mačkova Pečina below the summit Pečovje. At the inn we go left upwards on street Površnica. We soon get to a crossing, where the path 24 branches off to the left, and we go right and then once again right (crossings are well marked). The asphalt will soon end, and the path which goes past some holiday cottages flattens.
After the last holiday cottage, which is also the most interesting, we pass into the forest. After the entrance into the forest almost unnoticeably the path branches off, which goes over peaks Pečovje and Oštrec, and we go straight.
We continue on a gently sloping path, to which from the right joins the path from the village Vidovec.
After the crossing, the path becomes a little steeper, and the grounding more rocky. Next follows part of the path, where there are several crossings and shortcuts, but the path is mostly well-marked. The path then leads us past the source Vitelniški zdenec, where we can have a snack or refill the water.
After the source, we continue on a steeper path, and after few minutes we join the macadam road, where the path flattens. The cart track quickly brings us to a crossroad Križni hrast, where we join the path 24 and the path which leads over peaks Pečovje and Oštrec.
We continue forward towards the north and after a minute we leave the road.
Next follows only few minutes of walking through the forest and we get to the mountain hut Gorščica.
