Access to starting point:
From Horjul or Dobrova we drive to Polhov Gradec, and then we continue driving towards Črni Vrh. Just at the spot, where we notice the sign for the end of Polhov Gradec, we continue right in the direction of Mačkov graben and church of St. Uršula. Only a little after the crossroad we park on an appropriate place by the road.
Path description:
From the starting point, we continue on the asphalt road which soon brings us to a crossroad, where we continue right in the direction of Setnica (straight Mačkov graben). We continue the ascent on a little steeper road which after few minutes of walking, it brings us to the spot, where we leave the road. Blazes point us slightly to the left on a footpath which starts ascending steeper through the forest. After few minutes of additional walking, we step out of the forest and the path brings us to an open door farm Pri Mehačku.
Before the agrotourism we continue right on a marked path which leads us past few more houses, after the houses end, we get to a crossing, where to the right continues the path towards Grmada, and to the left a path branches off to towards Sveta Uršula.
We continue slightly right, on a cart track, that starts slightly ascending and goes already after few steps in the forest. Soon after we step into the forest, signposts for Grmada point us to the left on a footpath which starts ascending steeply, at first through the forest and then through more panoramic grassy slopes. Higher from the left joins the path past Sveta Uršula, and only a little further we already get to the top of Mala Grmada.
On the way: Pri Mehačku (675m)
