Path description:
From the starting point, we go left, where we at first cross the bridge through stream Hrastnica, and then we stick slightly to the right. At the end of the settlement road becomes a macadam and it starts ascending through the forest. Higher, we get to a crossroad from which we continue straight, and only a little further road brings us to the homestead Kamnar, where the driving road ends.
We bypass the house on the left side, and behind the hayrack we continue on a grassy cart track which quickly brings us into the forest. Next follows few minutes of crossing through the forest and then we get to the church of St. Barbara, from which a beautiful view opens up.
From the church, we continue sharply left and we ascend on an asphalt road to homestead Kožuh. At the homestead, we continue left, where we continue on a cart track which goes towards the west, and there we continue in a gentle diagonal ascent to a meadow, where it ends. Here we continue right and we ascend by the left edge of a meadow, and we are ascending on an indistinct ridge. When a little higher we step into the forest there appears relatively easy to follow and at first very steep footpath which leads us right from smaller cliffs. Higher, the footpath flattens and for some time gets very close to an older cart track, and then it continues through the forest to indistinct peak Kožuhov vrh.
Here ridge turns a little more to the right, and footpath which continues on and by the ridge at first lightly descends, and then it is mostly gently to moderately ascending. A little further footpath widens into a cart track, and when the cart track turns slightly to the right, we leave it and we continue left on a beaten, but further quite overgrown footpath. The path ahead leads us by and on the ridge of Mavrovec (841 meters), and then the footpath for few minutes flattens again. A little further, we leave the forest, behind the NOB memorial path steeply ascends on the more and more panoramic upper slope of Osolnik. When the footpath flattens we reach the peak, church and inscription box are situated few more 10 strides ahead.
