Path description:
From Krajevni dom in Šenturška Gora, opposite of which is situated also children's playground, we continue on the asphalt road which continues towards the east and leads towards Sidraž. After few minutes of walking on the asphalt road the settlement Šenturška Gora ends, and only few steps further we get to a marked crossroad.
From the crossroad, we continue on the left road in the direction of Sveti Lenart, and from there we go immediately left in the direction of Sveti Ambrož and Krvavec, so that on the left side we bypass the nearby sports field. Blazes and signs for path Martinova pot point us on the path which ascends by the sports field and above it passes into the forest through which it ascends to the spot, where we return on the road.
On an ascending road, continues a marked path, and at the turn we leave the road and we continue slightly left in the direction of the path Martinova pot. The path Martinova pot further isn't marked, but the crossings are marked, and the path mostly leads on a forested ridge, occasionally also quite steeply upwards. The path which mostly runs on cart tracks, and higher on a forest footpath, then without much view brings us to the inscription box on Prgozdnik.
