Path description:
From the crossroad, we go on the road in the direction of Idrija, and by the road, we walk few 10 meters, after that on a concrete retaining wall we notice signposts for Bevkov vrh, which point us sharply left, on the road which ascends to the nearby homestead. At the homestead, we continue through the yard, and behind the house we go right and we ascend to the nearby hayrack, where we go slightly left, so that we then ascend through a meadow diagonally towards the right. Higher, we get into a lane of a forest and then we go also past the house to which doesn't lead any road. Above the house, the path returns into the forest and starts ascending steeper. For some time we are steeply ascending through the forest and then we reach an asphalt road which we follow to the left. The road soon becomes a macadam, and from there we go slightly right and we ascend to the church of St. Pavel, which is situated on a panoramic hill.
