Access to starting point:
A) First, we drive to Logatec, and then we continue driving towards Idrija. When the most winding part of the road towards Idrija ends we get to a hamlet Podroteja, where we leave the main road and we continue left in the direction of the lake Divje jezero and Idrijska Bela. On the road, we drive for few 100 meters and then we park on a parking lot by information boards of the nearby lake Divje jezero.
B) From Most na Soči or Podbrdo we drive to the settlement Bača pri Modreju, and then we continue driving towards Idrija and forward towards Logatec. At the end of Idrija, more precisely at hamlet Podroteja, we leave the main road and we continue right in the direction of the lake Divje jezero and Idrijska Bela. On the road, we drive for few 100 meters and then we park on a parking lot by information boards of the nearby lake Divje jezero.
Path description:
From the parking lot by the lake Divje jezero we continue on the road, and we walk there only few 10 meters and then signs for path Ob Rakah point us to the right on footbridge, over which we walk on the other side of Idrijca. On the other side of Idrijca we reach a walking path, and we follow it to the left (right - Idrija). We continue on a gently sloping path which continues by the ditch through which flows water. The ditch was built for the purpose of the mine pump. At the dam, which we reach after few minutes the ditch ends, and we continue on a wide path which continues by along the river Idrijca. We then cross pretty steep slopes, but because the path is wide enough, snowless it doesn't cause problems. A little further, we get to a marked crossing, where the path branches off to the right towards the summit of Strug, and we still continue in the same direction. Only a little further from the left another path from the road joins, by which we lower have parked (the mentioned path is part of ICPP and further leads towards Zadlog - access on the mentioned path because of the closed footbridge is not possible (March 2012)), and we again continue straight and we follow the traverse path to the near bench, by which there are signposts.
Here we continue right and at first, we start moderately, and then steeply ascending through the forest. Higher, the path flattens and turns to the left, where it continues on limestone pavement terrain surrounded with rare bushes (area named Modrasovše). We continue the diagonal ascent towards the left and the path brings us to a nice vantage point on Prižnica (as it is written on rock, real Prižnica supposed to be a little higher and a little away from the mountain path), from which a beautiful view opens up on landscape park Zgornja Idrijca and deep below on river Idrijca.
We go past the bench and we continue on the path which gradually starts descending diagonally. After a short gentle descent, we reach the cart track, where blazes point us sharply to the right. We continue on a cart track which is then moderately ascending through the forest, and higher it gets close to a rocky edge, which is a little away from the path (if we have a will, we can walk to the edge "Prižnica", from which a nice and precipitous view opens up). Higher marked path on the right side bypasses the nearby meadow, and then it ascends to the farm Zagrebenc.
From the farm we continue slightly right and through a meadow we ascend on 763 meters high Zagrebenc (on maps also Čekovnik).
