Access to starting point:
From highway Ljubljana - Maribor, we go to the exit Lukovica, and then we continue driving towards Moravče. After the crossing of Radomlje, we get to the beginning of the settlement Spodnje Prapreče, where at the crossroad we continue left in the direction of Lake Gradišče. After a short ascent, we get to a crossroad with the priority road, where we continue right towards Lake Gradišče (left Gradišče), after that only a little further, from a priority road left towards Lake Gradišče (right Preserje pri Lukovici), in front of which we then park on a large parking lot.
Path description:
From the starting point, we continue on a marked path in the direction of Limbarska gora, which continues by the northern shore of Lake Gradišče. The path which continues on a macadam road and which is closed for public traffic, soon turns right and passes on the eastern side of the lake, where the marked path towards Limbarska gora turns left in the forest.
We continue towards Limbarska gora, where we at first ascend steeper, and then the path which continues on a cart track, quickly flattens. Higher, we come out of the forest and on the right side a nice view opens up towards the church of St. Mohor on Mohorjev hrib, and the path in additional few minutes descends to the settlement Vinje pri Moravčah, where there is a marked crossing.
We continue left in the direction of Limbarska gora (right St. Mohor), where we go past few houses, chapel and inscription box of the path Rokovnjaška planinska pot (Brigands's trail). A little further, at the smaller crossroad, by which there is a wooden religious symbol, we continue right in the direction of Limbarska gora and we ascend to the settlement Negastrn, where at the crossroads we follow the blazes. When we leave the asphalt road, we also quickly leave the village, and at the crossing, we choose the bottom right cart track which descends to a marked crossing, where also a marked path from Krašnja joins.
We continue in the direction of Limbarska gora, and the path little ahead crosses the asphalt road Krašnja - Moravče. The path ahead leads us on a macadam road, from which we soon go left on a marked path, which gradually passes into the forest. After few minutes, we reach a wide cart track, from there blazes point us to the left. Next follows a moderate ascent through the forest, when the forest ends we get to a larger meadow, where the path turns left. Next follows some quite gentle walking, and then we reach an asphalt road, on which in few minutes and with increasingly beautiful views, ascend to the summit of Limbarska gora, where there is the church of St. Valentin.
