Access to starting point:
From highway Ljubljana - Koper we go to the exit Kozina and follow a road ahead in the direction of Reka. In Hrpelje we notice the sign with the caption for inn "Gostilna na Vasi", which points us right on street Ulica D. Benčiča-B. We follow this road to the mentioned inn behind which we turn right. At the end of the village, we continue on a macadam road by which we also park (we follow the marked road).
Path description:
From the starting point, we continue on a marked road which quickly changes into at first a wide cart track. After few minutes of walking, the cart track splits into two parts, and we continue on the right in the direction of Slavnik. The path which runs on a cart track surrounded with bushes after a time starts ascending and higher brings us to a nice viewpoint by which there is also situated a pleasant bench.
Further, the path returns into the forest and continues in a diagonal ascent all the way to a marked crossing. Here we continue right in the direction of Mišja šoga (caption on rock), and the path straight leads on Slavnik. The path ahead at first gently ascends through a dense forest and then turns right and starts moderately ascending on occasionally quite poorly visible but well-marked path. This path, which is ascending through a thinner forest, we then follow all the way to the peak of Mišja šoga or Hrpeljska gora.
