Braslovško jezero - Holy Mother of God on Čreta

Access to starting point:
From highway Ljubljana - Maribor we go to the exit Šentrupert, and then we continue driving in the direction of Mozirje and valley Logarska dolina. At the settlement Parižlje we leave the main road and we continue driving left in the direction of Braslovče. When we get to Braslovče, more precisely in the center of the settlement near the church, at the crossroad we continue slightly left in the direction of the lake Braslovško jezero. Further, we drive on a little narrower road, on which we quickly get to the parking lot at already mentioned lake.

Path description:
From the parking lot, we at first walk to the nearby inn Gostilna Jezero, and then we continue on a marked path, which on the right side bypasses lake Braslovško jezero. On the other side of the lake, we short time continue through a meadow, and then we get to the road which we follow to the left. We soon get closer to residential house, in front of which we turn left, immediately after we cross a smaller stream we continue right on a cart track. Cart track at first continues through the forest and then it brings us on meadows, where it starts vanishing. At the end of the meadow at first we continue few steps to the left and then we notice a cart track which turns sharply to the right. We continue on the mentioned cart track which quickly ascends to the nearby macadam road, and we follow it to the right. The path ahead slightly descends and joins other road. We continue in the same direction and we gently ascend to the near farm. On the other side of farm path at first slightly ascends, and then turns right on a cart track, on which we further cross the slopes towards the right. After few minutes of crossing, we reach an asphalt road which we soon leave because blazes point us to footpath which ascends through the forest. Higher, we once again cross the road, after that when we again step on the road, we walk there to the spot, where the path from Letuš joins. Here we leave the road and we continue the ascent on a ladder, which helps us at steep ascent, and then we continue the ascent through the forest. The path ahead leads us past the bench, behind which we are soon again on the road. We follow the road to the left, and we walk there only few meters and then we continue right on a footpath which soon again crosses the road. The path Next leads us through shorter, partly overgrown clearing, from which a view opens up on Bezovec. Higher, we few minutes continue on the road, after that on a marked shortcut we ascend to a cross Covnikov križ.
Here we continue right (straight Bezovec 15 minutes) and at the smaller crossroad again right. We continue on a panoramic asphalt road, on which in few minutes of light descent we get to the mountain hut Dom na Dobrovljah.
At the mountain hut, we leave the asphalt road and we continue on a macadam road in the direction of Čreta. The road quickly brings us to a smaller hamlet, where we continue right, after that behind the houses we continue on a cart track in the direction of Čreta. Well marked cart track starts descending over at first still panoramic slope, and then passes into a lane of a forest, where also crosses the macadam road. A gentle ascent follows to the near farm Kokovnik, and then we walk to the near chapel. At the chapel, the path goes into the forest and then after a short descent joins asphalt road. On the road, we re for some time moderately ascending, after that joins the path from Nazarje and Mozirje. Here we continue straight and on the road we ascend to a marked crossroad.
At the crossroad, we continue sharply left in the direction of the footpath on Čreta (straight Čreta access with a car). We continue on the forest road which by the edge of a meadow brings us to the next crossroad.
This time we continue right (left St.Janez and Pavel and Grmada) and is past the farm Križnik we return on the main road which we reach near the crossroad.
We continue on the right road (straight lake Žovneško jezero), which we follow only few 10 strides, because then signs for Čreta point us to the left on a marked cart track. The path ahead is for some time gently to moderately ascending, and then it brings us to the next NOB monument, after which the path gradually starts descending. After a short descent, we come to a smaller hamlet, which the marked path bypasses on the left side, and then in a moderate ascent over more and more panoramic slope, we ascend to the church holy Mother of God.
