Trebija - Vrhovski grič (via Sveti Pavel)

Access to starting point:
From the road Škofja Loka - Žiri, in the settlement Trebija we turn right (from the direction Žiri left) towards the center of the settlement, where we park on a parking lot in front of the fire station.

Path description:
From the fire station we continue on the road which past the chapel and house, where fire brigade Trebija was established, brings us to a crossroad, at which there is a cross.
From the crossroad, we continue left (straight - the road towards Stara Oselica and Ermanovec) and on the road which offers nice views towards Trebija, we ascend to the nearby farm, where on a yard blazes point us to the right, on the path which continues below the projecting roof. The path ahead short time leads on a cart track, and then by the edge of the forest we ascend into the forest, where appears an overgrown, but quite well marked path. A little higher we reach the cart track and we follow it to the right, and from there we soon go left and we ascend to another cart track which we also follow to the right. When we reach the asphalt road, we go left, and we ascend there to the homestead Burnik, where a marked path from the asphalt road turns left on a cart track, and we continue on the asphalt road which higher returns into the forest and it brings us to a smaller crossroad, where we continue towards Ermanovec and Sveti Pavel (slightly left - Rovtar).
Next follows a diagonal ascent towards the right, where the path leads us past few smaller waterfalls, and when we leave the forest, the road splits. To the right leads a short path towards the church of St. Pavel, and we continue slightly left and we ascend above the hamlet. When the houses on the right end, on the right a nice view opens up towards the church, and the road higher passes into the forest through which we short time continue. When we leave the forest, follows some more of a diagonal ascent towards the right, and then on Sleme we join the marked path from Hotavlje, where we go sharply left towards Ermanovec.
Next follows an easy ascent and the path brings us to the spot, where the marked path splits.
We continue on the left path, which leaves the road (right mountain hut on Ermanovec, the path which bypasses the peak of Ermanovec) and continues on a cart track. We at first walk by the edge of the meadow, and the path is slowly turning slightly towards the left. At the crossings, we follow the blazes, and the path soon passes into the forest and ascends on a small saddle, where there is a marked crossing.
We continue left in the direction of the settlement Trebija (slightly right mountain hut on Ermanovec, right Ermanovec) and we continue walking on a gentle cart track which soon comes out of the forest on the upper slope of Vršnikov grič. Here we leave the marked path, which bypasses the peak a little to the right and we walk to indistinct peak. At the far northern part of the peak there are several antennas.
Trebija - Sveti Pavel 1:00, Sveti Pavel - Vrhovski grič 0:45.
