Path description:
From the starting point in Govejk, we continue towards the west in the direction of Ledine, to where we have a little less than an hour of walking. The path ahead leads us past few houses and a bigger wall, and after a shorter ascent it entirely flattens. At the next crossroad, where we notice signs for Ledine, we continue right, few 10 meters ahead, and near the "last" house also right on a cart track. We continue on a cart track which after few minutes from meadows passes into the forest. When after few minutes we come out of the forest, the path widens into a driving cart track, and a little further we also join a little wider road. On the macadam road in few minutes we reach an asphalt road, and then we quickly get to a marked crossroad, where from the left also a marked path from Ledinsko Razpotje joins.
We continue in the direction of Sivka, on a gently sloping road which gradually brings us in the village Ledine, where on the right we notice Jurečeva šupa (museum collection), and on the left on the bus stop shelter is attached an inscription box, in which is a stamp and inscription book.

The path then quickly ascends above the village, from where there is a nice view towards the part of the plateau, on the left, by the path, we also notice a smaller park. or NOB monument.
Asphalt road is then moderately ascending on at first still quite panoramic slopes, from which a beautiful view opens up, which reaches all the way to Trnovski gozd. Higher, the road passes into the forest, where it leads us past a smaller religious symbol, which we notice a little right from the path. Next follows traversing of a meadow, and then we are few minutes ascending through the forest. The main road higher brings us out of the forest, where in few steps we get to a marked crossing by the chapel.
