Kandrše (Trata) - GEOSS

Access to starting point:
A) We leave Štajerska highway at exit Krtina, and then we follow the signs for Moravče and Zagorje ob Savi. Only a little after the road sign, which marks the beginning of the settlement Kandrše, we get to a saddle by hamlet Trata, where we turn left and we park on a macadam parking lot opposite the company Strip's, elektrotehnika - elektronika, d.o.o.
B) We drive to Izlake (to here from Trojane or Zagorje ob Savi), and then we continue driving in the direction of Moravče. In the settlement Kandrše, at company Strip's, elektrotehnika - elektronika, d.o.o. we turn right and we park on a macadam parking lot next to hiking signposts.

Path description:
From the parking lot, we at first carefully cross the main road and we continue on a side road in the direction of GEOSS and Vače. The path ahead leads us past the fire station PGD Kandrše and Napoleon stone, and at the sign for the beginning of municipality Litija we go from the asphalt road left on a cart track. On the cart track, we walk to the entrance into the forest and then blazes point us to the right (straight - unmarked path on Slemšek), where we ascend through a lane of a forest. After a short ascent, we return on the asphalt road, and there we ascend to the nearby crossroad, where we leave the road towards Vače and GEOSS and we continue right on a side road, on which we get to a smaller hamlet, where the road ends. All the houses we bypass on the left side and we continue on a cart track which at first lightly descends, and then through a meadow we lightly ascend to a hamlet Strmec. Here we again step on the road and past houses and religious symbol we ascend to a poorly marked crossroad, where we go left (right downwards a marked path towards St. Florjan). Next follows some entirely gentle walking, where we go past a religious symbol, and then we start ascending diagonally. After few minutes, we get to a crossroad, where we join the "main" road which leads towards GEOSS and we follow it to the right (left - Vače and Kandrše).
The path then still leads on the asphalt road, and there we cross the slopes towards the right. A little further, we get to the settlement Spodnja Slivna, where in the middle of the settlement at the inn Gostilna Vrabec we go left towards GEOSS.
We continue in the direction of GEOSS, to which we get in few minutes of walking on the asphalt road.
