Access to starting point:
From highway Ljubljana - Maribor, we go to the exit Lukovica, and then we continue driving towards Moravče. After the crossing of Radomlje, we get to the beginning of the settlement Spodnje Prapreče, where at the crossroad we continue left in the direction of Lake Gradišče. After a short ascent, we get to a crossroad with the priority road, where we continue right towards Lake Gradišče (left Gradišče), after that only a little further, from a priority road left towards Lake Gradišče (right Preserje pri Lukovici), in front of which we then park on a large parking lot.
Path description:
From the starting point, we continue on a marked path in the direction of Limbarska gora, which continues by the northern shore of Lake Gradišče. The path which continues on the macadam road and which is closed for public traffic, soon turns right and passes on the eastern side of the lake, where the marked path towards Limbarska gora (also the path on Sveti Mohor through the settlement Vinje pri Moravčah) turns left in the forest, and we still continue on a walking path. Next follows a shorter ascent, and then also a descent, and after the descent, we again get very close to the lake. Further, we over the bridge cross Drtijščica, and then a little ahead we get to a longer right turn, at the beginning of which an ascending macadam road branches off to the left, which leads towards the village Prikrnica (the turn-off isn't marked).
At the mentioned turn-off, we leave the walking path which leads around the lake (to here possible also on the western coast of the lake) and we continue on the mentioned ascending road. After a short ascent, we get to a smaller crossroad, where we continue left (right - Prikrnica). A little further, we cross a larger clearing, where there are some benches, and then the path for some time returns into the forest. When we again step out of the forest, an unmarked path branches off to the right, which leads towards Sveti Mohor. We continue on the mentioned footpath (straight - homestead Rožek), which starts ascending diagonally towards the right, and higher it joins the marked path Vinje pri Moravčah - Sveti Mohor.
We continue straight (left - homestead Rožek) and we follow the blazes, the church of St. Mohor we already see quite close. Few minutes ahead we reach the macadam road, where we go left (right - Imenje and Tuštanj), and the path further leads past few Stations of the Cross. When we get to the nearby house we go slightly left and then on the stairs, we ascend to the church of St. Mohor.
