Access to starting point:
From the road Prebold - Trbovlje, in the settlement Marija Reka we go right (from the direction Trbovlje left) on a side road in the direction of the mountain hut Dom pod Reško planino (at the crossroad there is a brown road sign with the caption "Pod Reško planino"). On an ascending and winding road we then drive to the mountain hut, or we can go also one more hairpin turn further to the parish church, where we park.
Path description:
From the parking lot near the mountain hut we go on a marked footpath in the direction of Reška planina, Zajčeva koča and Sveta Planina (Partizanski vrh). At first, we steeply ascend and after 5 minutes we get to the church of the Assumption of Mary, where we return on the asphalt road.
A little further from the church, where there is another parking lot, from a marked crossing we continue left upwards on the asphalt road (straight uphill Reška planina), which starts ascending diagonally. Higher, we get to the information board about geological soil compositions, where the road flattens. Next follows few minutes of crossing, and then we get to a marked crossing on the southwestern side of Reška planina.
We continue left downwards (right Reška planina on the ridge, vineyard cottage Šmiglova zidanica, Grajska vas and Prebold.
Next follows some of an occasional descent, where we at first on the left bypass Jamškov vrh (811 meters), and then on the right also Nacetov vrh (828 meters), and past individual homesteads we then get to a crossroad, where also the path from Podmeja joins.
We go right upwards and we continue walking on a little wider asphalt road which leads us diagonally on northwestern slopes of the hill Šterbenkel, higher we go also past the ski slope, and then we get to the slopes of the peak Javor. On some crossroads we follow the main road, and when we reach a little bigger crossroad at NOB monument we go right (left Sveta Planina) and we quickly get to the church of St. Lenart on Vrhe.
Few 10 meters further there is also a former mountain hut Planinski dom Vrhe, which has been closed for some years and in is privately owned.
