Path description:
From the parish church we continue on the main road or sidewalk, and then at the primary school road turns a little to the right in the direction of the settlement Lajše. When Gorenja vas ends, the road becomes steeper, in the settlement Lajše we notice the first blazes. Above the settlement we continue on the right road in the direction of sandpit Lajše, and a little further we go left on a marked cart track. We continue through the forest, on a cart track which is diagonally ascending towards the left, and higher reaches the ridge, where joins unmarked, but better beaten path from the settlement Dobravšce.
The path ahead leads us on and by the forested ridge and higher we join the asphalt road which we follow upwards. A little further, we get to a smaller crossroad, where we continue on a slightly left road in the direction of farm Kavčič, from the road we go few 10 strides higher, slightly left on a marked footpath in the direction towards Javorč. The path ahead for few minutes leads through the forest, and when we come out of the forest, in front of us we already notice transmitters on Jermanca, to which we have only a minute of walking.
From the inscription box on Jermanca we continue straight to the near farm Jermanc, where we cross the asphalt road, and then on the left side of house we continue on a meadow, on which we ascend to the edge of the forest. When we step into the forest appears cart track, and there we ascend to the farm Zaleše, where we reach the other asphalt road. We follow the road to the right, and it starts turning to the left. At the end of the turn, just before the asphalt road turns right, we continue slightly left on a macadam road which in a gentle ascent continues by the edge of the forest. When we step into the forest road splits, and we continue left, and after few minutes of additional walking, we get to the information board of Rupnik Line, where there is a bigger unfinished underground structure Odporna točka Žirovski Vrh.
We continue on the road, and when after a short descent, we reach an asphalt road, we continue left downwards to the nearby crossroad.
