Path description:
At the end of the parking lot is located a marked crossing, where we continue right in the direction of Jeterbenk and Katarina (left Slavkov dom on Golo Brdo). The path at first leads on a macadam road which after a smaller house changes into a cart track, from which we continue left in the forest, where at first we cross a stream. Further, we are gently ascending on occasionally overgrown path which leads us past several smaller crossings, where we follow the blazes. After few minutes of gentle ascent, the path turns slightly to the left and gradually descends to the forest road which we only cross. Next follows some descend, and then we reach an asphalt road and we follow it to the right, but we walk there only a short time because red signposts point us to the left towards the nearby fruit press.
We bypass the fruit press pr Andrej on the left side, and behind it we continue over a small bridge in the forest. In the forest at first we continue right and in few minutes ascend to a cart track, on which we step out of the forest. The path ahead leads us on the mentioned cart track, and at first past the house, and then with nice views on Polhograjsko hribovje. After a short descent, we reach an asphalt road which we only cross, because we continue on a macadam road. The road soon split on two parts, and we continue on the left bottom, on which we quickly get to the left turn, by which there is a marked parking lot Žlebe.
From the parking lot, we continue on a cart track in the direction of Katarina, Jeterbenk and St Marjeta (left Petelinc), which continues on the left side of the stream. After few 10 strides we leave mentioned cart track and we continue right into the forest, where at first we descend to a stream which we also cross. On the other side for s short time we are still gently ascending, and then the path turns right and it ascends steeper. A little higher we get to a marked crossing, where we continue left (right church of St Marjete 3 minutes) and on next one nearby again left. A little further, the path split on two parts, and we continue on the bottom left (right Jeterbenk over Turnice), which then for some time isn't marked, on the most of the crossings is marked.
From unmarked crossing at first we lightly descend to a smaller ditch, and then we are gently ascending to a cart track which we follow to the left, we walk there to the spot, where signs "Petelinc" point us to the right on a steeper path, on which in few minutes we get to a meadow (by the edge of the meadow is a bench), over which we ascend steeply. The path ahead returns into the forest and past the ruins brings us to a marked crossing, where we join the marked path from Slavkov dom on Golo Brdo.
Here we continue right and start ascending on the ridge of Jeterbenk, from which occasionally a view opens up a little towards the south. Higher, we reach some kind of the secondary peak, from which we descend on a smaller saddle, where we join the path from Katarina. Here we continue straight and in few steps we reach the peak, in the middle of which stands a big cross.
