Access to starting point:
A) We drive to Kranj, and then we follow the signs for Besnica (turn off from old road Ljubljana - Kranj is before the bridge over the river Sava, or after the bridge if we come from the direction Kranj). Further, we drive through Spodnja and Zgornja Besnica and Njivica. Even a little further, we get to Nemilje, where at the inn Gostilna na Raspokah there is the beginning of the described path. At the starting point, there aren't any parking spots for mountaineers, therefore we park on an appropriate place somewhere nearby.
B) From Železniki we drive to Dražgoše, and then we continue driving towards Kropa. Next follows diagonal driving on slopes of Jelovica, and then we get to a crossroad, where the road towards Kranj branches off sharply to the right (turn-off for Kranj is only from the opposite direction). Here we continue sharply right (if the turn is too sharp, about 50 meters ahead there is a turning point), and then we descend into Podblica and further to the settlement Nemilje, where at the inn Gostilna na Raspokah there is the beginning of the described path. At the starting point, there aren't any parking spots for mountaineers, therefore we park on an appropriate place somewhere nearby.
Path description:
From the inn we go on a side road which continues towards the west (left - Selca and Topolje, right - Dražgoše and Jamnik). After a short ascent, the road turns left and it brings us to few more houses, and before the last house we go slightly right on a cart track which through a meadow ascends into the forest. Through the forest, we diagonally ascend on slopes of Bekrej (585 meters), and on the other side of the peak, we reach a forested ridge, on which the path continues. Next follows few smaller crossings, where we continue straight, and a little higher we go from an indistinct ridge to the right, where after a short crossing, we reach another cart track, and there we continue the ascent. Next follows some more of a moderate ascent and few crossings, where we follow the wider cart track, and when we reach the saddle Prevoje, where we reach the marked path Dražgoše - Sveti Mohor we continue right (left Sveti Mohor).
The path ahead is at first ascending on a cart track, and then on a footpath, and at Koblarjev hrib the ascent for some time ends. Next follows some easy walking to the nearby chapel, where from the right side also the path from Podblica joins.
The path ahead leads us on a cart track which is gently to moderately ascending. A little higher we for some time step out of the forest on a panoramic meadow, and then after a smaller cottage, which we notice on the right side, the path returns into the forest. Next follows few minutes of ascent through the forest and then we reach another meadow, where the path leads us on its left edge. A little higher, the path turns left and past the abandoned farm Lobnikar brings us to an asphalt road which we follow to the left and then we quickly reach the church of St. Jedert.
