When Češnjica ends, we descend into a smaller valley, when the road again ascends we quickly get to Rovte, where at the crossroads we follow the main road. When the settlement ends, for some time we drive through the forest, when we come out of the forest in front of us, we notice settlement Njivica, and we park before the settlement on an appropriate place near the "storage" of logs.

Next follows a steep ascent on a wide road, and then we already get to Njivica, and we park pa at the end of the settlement on an appropriate place near the "storage" of logs.
Path description:
From the spot, where we've parked at first we walk to "storage" of logs, and then we continue on a wide cart track which ascends towards the west. On the cart track, we are at first steeper ascending, and at the crossings we follow "main cart track". Higher, the cart track flattens, and still crosses slopes towards the left. Also further there's few smaller crossings, where we follow a wider cart track, or the one by which there are arrows and signs number 3. Even a little further cart track from the slope of Mali vrh passes on slopes below the ridge of St. Primož and Felicijan, where from the left joins the path from the village Nemilje (path over Sleme).
Here we continue slightly right, and a little ahead we go sharply right and soon past from below visible two hayracks. Follows some more of the crossing to the right, and then we diagonally ascend to the main ridge, where we join the marked path which leads from the village Rovte towards Jamnik.
On the ridge, we continue left, after that with increasingly beautiful views we in few minutes ascend to small church of St. Primož and Felicijan.
