Access to starting point:
From Ljubljana ring road we go to the exit Ljubljana - south, and then at the crossroad with the road Dolenjska cesta we continue right in the direction of center of Ljubljana. After approximately 300 meters of driving on the road Dolenjska cesta, we turn right (we turn right, after the turning point for buses and before Petrol gas station) on street Rudnik I, on which we then drive to the church of St. Simon and Juda Tadej on Spodnji Rudnik.
To the starting point, we can get to also from the direction of the center of Ljubljana.
Path description:
From the parking lot in few steps we descend to the ascending road (we descend to the road, on which we came to the starting point), and there by the cemetery we ascend to a crossroad, where we join a little wider asphalt road which leads from Petrol gas station in Rudnik towards Orle.
We continue on an ascending asphalt road, by which we notice a larger number of smaller wooden crosses and here and there some rare blaze. Higher, the road flattens, and from the left joins a little better marked path from Golovec. The path ahead leads us also past the hayrack and a picnic area, and then we soon get to municipality Škofljica. Next follows a short walk, and then at the smaller crossroad at the beginning of the settlement Orle we continue left towards the nearby inn Gostilnica Orle, from which a beautiful view opens up.
