Path description:
At the starting point, we look for a cart track which is situated by the bridge. We go there and we immediately turn on a steeper left logging trail, which makes a turn and we are again at the crossing. We continue right and then again left and once again right. The logging trail is slowly changing into a footpath. At the end of the footpath we come again on a logging trail, which runs from Log. We continue right. Logging trail is unevenly ascending. We ignore all turn-offs to the left and right and we are soon on overgrown secondary peak of Strmeca. A gentle descent follows to a crossroad, where we can continue left to the summit of Strmca (few 10 meters) or to the right towards Ferjanka. Next follows a steep descent to a crossroad, where we continue right on a worse and a little overgrown logging trail and soon after that, we go left on a little overgrown footpath. We soon come on a cart track and we are on Ferjanka, where on the trunk of the tree there is an inscription box. We join the marked path. We continue through a meadow into the forest and we follow the marked path to a logging trail, where a trail blaze points us to the right and after a short descent, we come to a crossroad. We continue straight (right - Ferjanka on a logging trail, (option of the approach), left - Brezje pri Dobrovi). The logging trail is ascending a little steeper and we are already on the secondary peak of Strmca. A gentle descent follows and to the top seperate us two steeper ascents through the forest Križevski boršt and in 10 minutes from the secondary peak we already notice the sign on the top of Strmca.
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.
