Access to starting point:
From Horjul or Dobrova we drive to Polhov Gradec, and then we continue driving towards Gorenja vas. Only a little after Polhov Gradec, by the end of the village Briše, we will notice by the road church of the holy three kings and only few meters before it signs for terme Briše, which point us to the left on a macadam road which we then follow approximately 100 meters to the parking lot in front of natural swimming pool terme Briše.
Path description:
From the parking lot, we return to the main road, and from there we continue right towards Polhov Gradec. After few minutes of walking by the main road, we get to the bus stop in Briše, here signs for Praproče and Polhograjska Gora, point us to the left on an ascending asphalt road. We for some time continue on a narrow and ascending road, and then we get to a smaller hamlet, where from the right side joins the path from Polhov Gradec.
Only few meters after the crossing, which a lot of people miss, the asphalt road turns to the left and crosses a smaller ditch. On this spot, signs for Sveti Lovrenc point us to the right on a cart track which starts ascending by the torrent ditch. After a short ascent, at the smaller crossing, we continue left and we start ascending steeper on occasionally a little more muddy cart track. Higher, the cart track makes few hairpin turns, and then it joins the forest road from Praproče. When we reach the mentioned road, we continue right and there we walk to the nearby crossroad, where from the left joins also the second road from Praproče.
Here we continue past the bench, behind which we quickly get to a gate.
Right in front of the gate, we continue left in the direction of demanding path (straight Sveti Lovrenc easier approach) and we continue the ascent on an increasingly steep path. The path which mostly runs through a pine forest, higher ascends even steeper and crosses a short exposed slope (mainly in wet great risk of slipping). Higher, the path slightly flattens and passes on the ridge of Polhograjska Gora. Ahead the path brings us out of the forest and after a shorter further ascent leads to the wall of the church of St. Lovrenc. Here with the help of few footholds and holds, we climb the mentioned walls and we step on a panoramic peak.
