Path description:
From the parking lot, we at first carefully cross the road, and then we go on the path Sodarjeva pot, which is at first ascending parallel with the road, and after a smaller meadow it turns a little to the right and passes into a dense forest. Before we step out of the forest on a little larger meadow, from the right joins also the path Pot prijateljev Sv. Jošta, and above the meadow path returns into the forest. In the forest, the path splits, and we choose the left, steeper path (straight path past the chapel, the path through the valley and Rakovica), which after few minutes of ascent again splits.
We again choose the left path, by which there are signs "po stopnicah" (on stairs), and we start ascending diagonally, on a shorter part also on some stairs.
Higher, we reach a wide cart track, where most of the before mentioned paths join, and we follow a wide path from which a little below the summit nice views open up all the way to the top, where there are situated a mountain hut Dom na Joštu and church of St. Jošt.
