A) From highway Ljubljana - Koper, we go to the exit Brezovica, and then we continue driving in the direction of Dobrova. From the roundabout in Dobrova, we drive in the direction of Horjul, and then we continue driving to the settlement Brezje pri Dobrovi. Here in the middle of the settlement, we turn left on a local road, on which we lightly descend to the bridge over the river Horjulščica. After the bridge, the road turns right, and we park on an appropriate place by the road.

Path description:
At the starting point, we notice the blazes, which from the road point us slightly to the left on an ascending cart track. After a short ascent, the cart track on the left side bypasses few nearby houses (often there are dogs, possible detour from the starting point far left and then on all logging trails right and a little on pathless terrain), and then it turns a little more to the left and for some time it is still moderately ascending through the forest. Higher, the cart track flattens and blazes from the cart track point us sharply right on a marked footpath (straight - path past Strmca), on which in 10 minutes of additional walking, we get to an indistinct peak Strmca, which is entirely covered with a forest.
From the top, we continue in the direction of Debeli hrib. Next follows a shorter descent to a crossing, where the already mentioned path joins. We continue on a marked path, which is descending and ascending, meanwhile also the path from the farm Pavliček joins. We get below the steep slope, where we can go straight uphill or right on a gentle path. After 5 minutes both paths join and we continue to the foot of Vrhovčev grič, where at the crossing we continue left and in few steps we are on Vrhovčev grič.
