Access to starting point:
From the road Trzin - Kamnik, at settlement Loka we go on a local road in the direction of Loka and Dobeno. Further, we drive through Loka, where at the crossroads we follow the signs for Dobeno. Further, we cross few fields, and then the road passes into the forest. When the fields end, we will on the left side of the road notice few appropriate places, where we can leave the car.
Path description:
From the starting point, we continue on the asphalt road, and it quickly passes into a dense forest and it starts considerably ascending. Soon, we will by the road notice signs for a footpath on Dobeno, which point us to the right on a footpath, and starts ascending through the forest. We continue the ascent on an unmarked footpath which at the crossings we follow to the left. After approximately 10 minutes of ascent through the forest we return on the road, and we walk there to the beginning of the village Dobeno and further. Ahead the road leads us past a trough with water and past few houses brings us to a marked crossing, where from the left the marked path from the castle Jablje joins.
From the inn Ručigaj, which is situated by the marked crossing, we continue straight and we are ascending on the road with increasingly beautiful views on surroundings. Higher marked path few times crosses a road, and then it brings us to the inn Dobenski hram.
From here we for some time continue on the "main" road, and then we get to a large parking lot, by which there are a bench and a chapel.
From the parking lot, we continue on an ascending asphalt road which at the crossroads we follow in the direction of the mountain hut Dom na Rašici. With nice views on Posavsko hribovje and partly also on Kamnik Savinja Alps, we quickly get to a hamlet, where mountain signposts for mountain hut Dom na Rašici point us to the right on at first a wide cart track. Here the path passes into the forest, and at the crossings we carefully follow the blazes, that in labyrinth of cart tracks and footpaths we don't miss the right path. Higher wide footpath slightly descends, and then it starts moderately ascending towards the mountain hut Dom na Rašici, which we reach after few minutes of additional walking.
From the hut, we continue on a gently sloping path in the direction of lookout tower, and we reach it after a minute of additional walking. For a nice view it is worth to ascend also on 17 meters high lookout tower.
