Access to starting point:
From Škofja Loka we drive towards Gorenja vas, but only to the village Poljane nad Škofjo Loko. Here we continue right in the direction of village Javorje, on an ascending road which higher brings us to the mentioned village. In the mentioned village from where the also the road from Zapreval joins, we continue left in the direction towards Blegoš (crossroads are well marked). The road which then crosses few hamlets, higher brings us to a crossroad of multiple roads (Črni Kal), where there is also a little larger parking lot. By the parking lot we notice signposts for Blegoš and Koprivnik.
Path description:
From the parking lot, we go on a cart track in the direction of Koprivnik. After few 10 strides of walking, we will by the path notice signposts, which point us to the right (straight Martinj vrh) on at first a poorly visible footpath which ascends steeply on a quite overgrown slope. The path ahead becomes more distinct and it quickly brings us on the western ridge of Romovec. Further, the path ascends even steeper, and then it flattens and it quickly brings us on a vegetated peak of Romovec.
Next follows a short descent and the path which all the time runs through the forest brings us to a pleasant bench by which we notice an inscription box. We continue straight on a gently sloping path, which only a little further joins a wide cart track. We follow the cart track in the direction of Koprivnik (right downwards Žetina), and it gradually starts ascending steeper. At the spot, where the cart track gets overgrown by high grass, we will on the right side notice at first a poorly visible, but marked footpath which from the cart track branches off to the right. Further, we are ascending on at first a very dense forest, on the path which higher brings us on partly panoramic slopes, from which a view opens up on the nearby Blegoš. A little further, the steepness decreases and the path through the site of blueberries quickly brings us to the summit of Koprivnik.
