Access to starting point:
A) First, we drive to Kamnik, and then we continue driving through the valley Tuhinjska dolina. Ahead we drive through settlements Vrhpolje, Soteska, Srednja vas, Loke and Potok. At the village Potok road branches off to the left towards spa Terme Snovik, and we follow the main road only few 100 meters or to the spot, where signs for Hruševka point us to the left on a narrower local road. On the mentioned road, we ascend to some sort of center of the village, where signs for a footpath on St. Miklavž point us to the right downwards. Here the road at first descends a little and then starts gently ascending by stream Podbreški potok. After a short ascent, we come to "last" house in the village, and we park few 10 meters before, on an appropriate place by the road.
B) From highway Maribor - Ljubljana we go to the exit Vransko, and then we continue driving on the parallel old road towards Ljubljana. At the end of Vransko we will get to a crossroad, where we turn right towards the valley Tuhinjska dolina. Ahead we drive through settlements Motnik, Špitalič, Cirkuše, Laze, Šmartno and Buč. Behind the village Buč, signs for Hruševka point us to the right on a narrower local road. On the mentioned road, we ascend to some sort of center of the village, where signs for a footpath on St. Miklavž point us to the right downwards. Here the road at first descends a little and then starts gently ascending by stream Podbreški potok. After a short ascent, we come to "last" house in the village, and we park few 10 meters before, on an appropriate place by the road.
Path description:
From the starting point, we continue sharply right in the direction of the footpath on St. Miklavž. The path at first ascends through a lane of a forest and then it brings us by the edge of pastures, from where a nice view opens up on surroundings. At first, a little more overgrown path for some time returns into the forest and then leads past a log cabin, behind which we cross also a lane of bushes. After the bushes, the path widens into a cart track, and it turns sharply to the left and it brings us into a dense forest. For a short time, we still walk on a cart track, and then blazes point us to the right on an increasingly steep footpath. This quite steep path, which is all the time ascending through the forest, we then follow all the way to the church of St. Miklavž on Gora, from which a beautiful view opens up.
