Path description:
From the center of Moravče we continue by the main road which leads towards Izlake. We at first walk on a sidewalk, a little after company Nissan Krulc, we go slightly right on the road in the direction of settlements Ribče and Dešen and mountain hut Planinski dom Ušte - Žerenk. The path ahead starts ascending on a little narrower asphalt road, from which when we look back a nice view opens up towards Limbarska gora, and in good visibility, the view reaches all to the highest peaks of Kamnik Savinja Alps. Soon after Moravče ends, we get to a hamlet Podbrdo, where we leave the asphalt road and we continue left in the direction of the mountain hut and Sveti Miklavž.
Behind the houses, which we bypass on the left side, the path goes into the forest and starts ascending a little more, and quite quickly it also splits.
We choose the slightly right path (slightly left - Planinski dom Ušte - Žerenk), which is still ascending through the forest, and higher it has some smaller poorly marked crossings. We follow the blazes of European footpath E6, and higher we get to an asphalt road which we reach at the marked crossing on the saddle Grmače.
From the crossroad, we continue right (mountain hut Dom Ušte - Žerenk) and then immediately once again right, both times in the direction of Sveti Miklavž. The path ahead leads us past few more houses and NOB monument in the settlement Katarija. The road which is then slightly ascending brings us to the last house in the village, where there is an inscription box.
After the house, the path on Cicelj branches off to the right, and we continue straight, on a cart track which in few minutes of additional walking brings us to the church of St. Miklavž.
