Besnica - Janče

Access to starting point:
A) From Ljubljana east bypass highway, we go to the exit Bizovik, and then we continue driving towards Sostro and Besnica. After the saddle, where the road branches off to the right towards the settlement Javor, the road starts descending, and after a short macadam section it brings us into a valley of the stream Besnica. At the crossroad at some houses we continue left towards Zalog, and after the crossroad, we need to pay attention to the right turn-offs. After approximately 500 meters we get to the first turn-off of the road on the right, where we can with some attention notice some marks or blazes, and about 100 meters ahead at the turn-off of the road towards the settlement Vnajnarje, there are also the red signposts. At the first and second turn-off there aren't any parking spots, but it is possible to park on an appropriate place by the road at the first turn-off.
B) First, we drive to Zalog (area of Ljubljana), and then over the river Ljubljanica we continue driving towards Podgrad, where we turn right in the direction of Besnica. The road ahead at first leads through a narrower underpass under the railway track, and then it starts gradually ascending. The mentioned road, we follow to the turn-off of the road to the left towards the settlement Vnajnarje, where we notice red signs for Janče, or we can drive about 100 meters further to the second turn-off of the road to the left, where there are some more options for parking.

Path description:
From the starting point at the marked turn-off of the road towards the settlement Vnajnarje and by which there are red signposts, we continue on the road in the direction of the mentioned settlement and on a footpath on Janče. We leave the road towards Vnajnarje at the first turn-off of the road to the right, where joins also the path from the second possible starting point (to here on both paths less than 5 minutes).
Both paths join at the woodshed, where we notice signs of the Path of couriers and connectors (the path is marked with round yellow-blue blazes, on the woodshed and elsewhere we can besides the mentioned notice also the old signs TV).
From the spot, where both paths join we continue on a narrower ascending asphalt road which a little after the right turn we leave because blazes lead left in the forest. Through the forest, the path mostly runs on the old cart tracks, and when we step out of the forest, it ends or vanishes. We continue here by the right edge of the forest, and higher on a cart track which ascends on the upper part of a panoramic meadow. The cart track a little further joins the macadam road which we follow to the right to the nearby house. At the house, we go left and on a little steeper cart track we quickly ascend to an asphalt road which we follow right. The asphalt road soon flattens, and then it for some time continues without large changes in altitude. At the smaller crossroad, where the road branches off to the left, which leads towards the farms Jožman and Jakopič we continue straight. The path ahead leads us past a smaller religious symbol and a little ahead also past the sign for the end of the settlement Vnajnarje. From the road further a view opens up a little, which reaches all the way to Krim and even further. A little further from NOB monument, which we notice on the right side of the road, we leave the asphalt road and we continue slightly left on a macadam road, on which we walk to the first left turn. At the mentioned turn, where also the path Borovničeva pohodna pot joins, we continue straight and we for some time walk on a wide cart track which short time runs through the forest. When the forest ends, the road becomes a nice macadam, and from there a nice view opens up towards Janče and surrounding hills. After the built chapel we join a wider macadam road, and at the nearby houses it gets an asphalt covering. Behind the houses, we get to a smaller crossroad, where an asphalt road continues towards the right, to the left forest road branches off towards Breza, and in the direction of straight continues a marked path towards Janče. First meters from the spot, when we leave the road lead on an overgrown path, at first mostly bramble, and higher there are also some fallen trees. After a short ascent, the path leads on a cart track which eventually flattens, and then in a gentle descent brings us back on an asphalt road. When we return on the road, the path leads us past the wooden cross, and later also past the primary school. When the road returns into the forest, we for some time leave it and we ascend on a marked footpath which a little before the bigger chapel returns on the road. From the chapel a beautiful view opens up, and on the main road past another chapel we get to the settlement Janče. In Janče at the first crossroad we continue left in the direction of the mountain hut Dom na Jančah, which we reach after few 10 strides of additional walking.
