Access to starting point:
From Škofja Loka we drive towards Gorenja vas. The road then brings us to the traffic light crossroad in the village Poljane nad Škofjo Loko. Here we turn left towards the village Hotovlja. The road immediately after the crossroad over a bridge crosses Poljanščica and then brings us to the next crossroad, where we continue left. Further, the road brings us among houses in the village, where we also notice the beginning of the footpath on Bukov vrh. Here we drive for few ten meters ahead to the parking lot, which we notice on the other side of the stream by which we drive.
Path description:
From the parking lot, we continue on the road by which we've parked. The road which leads us past the quarry we follow to a crossroad, where we turn left in the direction of Bukov vrh. Asphalt road then after additional few minutes of walking, it brings us to the next crossroad, where we again continue left in the direction of Bukov vrh. Further, asphalt ends and the road which is moderately ascending through the forest brings us to a smaller hamlet, where we also step out of the forest.
Further, we are mostly ascending on slopes vegetated with grass, which offering nice views. Further, the road brings us in the village Bukov vrh, where we continue left and past last houses in the village we ascend on Bukov vrh on which we already clearly see the church. From the last houses in the village to the top we have a little less than five minutes of ascent on a grassy slope.
