Path description:
From the parish church in Vače on the main road, we at first descend towards the west, and after few 10 strides, we get to a crossroad, where we continue left in the direction of the settlement Klenik. An easy descent a little ahead ends, and the road with a view on the hill Slemik leads by the edge of a meadow, where we go past several sculptures. At the sign for the beginning or the end of the settlement Klenik, the trail blaze points us left upwards on a footpath which ascends to the near house, which we bypass on the left side.
Above the house, we step on a cart track which we follow slightly to the left, and from there we soon go right on a marked footpath. The path after few minutes crosses a cart track, and we continue on a marked path, which is still ascending through the forest. Next follows a little steeper ascent and in few minutes of additional walking, we get to the church of the Holy Cross on Slemik.
