Župeno - Sveti Vid (Vidovska planota)

Access to starting point:
A) From highway Ljubljana - Koper we go to the exit Brezovica, and then we continue driving in the direction Podpeč (to Podpeč we can also come from Črna vas or Ig). In Podpeč we continue in the direction of Borovnica, Krim and Rakitna and continue driving for a short time by the edge of Ljubljana marshes, and then signs for Rakitna point us to the left on a steep ascending road. The road then leads us through Preserje, where it also starts descending. After a short descent, we continue left in the direction of Krim and Rakitna, and then we follow a mostly ascending road to Rakitna and from there towards Cerknica. Ahead we few kilometers drive through the forest and then we get to a saddle Pikovnik and an eponymous settlement, from where a nice view opens up. From the saddle, the road starts descending, and it leads through the settlement Kržišče and Beč to the village Župeno, where there is the beginning of our path on Sveti Vid. Because by the starting point, there aren't any appropriate parking spots, we have to park on an appropriate place by the road before or after the village.
B) From highway Koper - Ljubljana we go to the exit Unec and we follow the road ahead in the direction of Cerknica. Only a little before Cerknica, we continue left in the direction of Begunje, and when we get to Begunje we follow the signs for Rakitna. Further, the road starts ascending, and we follow it to the village Župeno, where our path begins. Because by the starting point, there aren't any appropriate parking spots, we have to park on an appropriate place by the road before or after the village.
C) First, we drive to Cerknica, and then we continue driving in the direction Begunje, when we get to Begunje we follow the signs for Rakitna.

Path description:
In the middle of the village Župeno, we will notice signs for Sveti Vid and Osredek, which point us on a little narrower road which continues towards the east, and at first, it leads among few houses. When the houses end, the road leads us through meadows, and then passes into the forest, where we notice a notification, that we are entering the bear area. The road further is for some time moderately ascending, and then it flattens and it brings us to the beginning of the village Koščake, where from the left joins also a marked path from Pikovnik and the peak Zadela.
We continue on the road, and it leads past a lonely house, and behind it, we gradually come out of the forest. We continue with nice views on the ridge of Javorniki, Slivnica, Snežnik and other surrounding hills. Next follows a short descent, in the middle of which at first the road branches off to the right towards few houses in the village Koščake, and a little further from the left joins the path from Rakitna. In both cases we continue straight, and further an asphalted road quickly takes us to the next village, named Korošče.
On the other side of the village, the road for some time ascends a little and then it flattens and slowly starts turning more to the left. Meanwhile already a view opens up towards the church of St. Vid and the eponymous village. A little before the village, we join the other a little wider road which we follow to the left, and we ascend there to the fire station and church.
