Path description:
From the crossroad at the transformer we continue few steps on the main road towards Polhov Gradec, and then we go right in the direction of Grmada on a macadam road which continues past houses. Macadam road which leads us past few houses quickly brings us on a smaller saddle, where we continue straight downwards (sharply right cart track which leads on the eastern slopes of the peak Praprotno (527 meters) and further several times splits). The road then leads us past another house, and behind it we continue right on an ascending cart track. We continue the ascent diagonally through the forest, and past a smaller well we get to badly marked crossing, where we continue right. Further, we are moderately ascending through the forest, and by the path, we notice some of rare blazes, next to one is also caption for altitude. Higher, we get to some kind of a ridge by and on which we are then ascending towards the village Belo.
When we reach the village nice views open up, and the path further leads on mostly macadam road which in some crossroads we follow in the direction of open door farm Pr Lenart, which we quickly also reach.
