Access to starting point:
From highway Ljubljana - Jesenice we go to the exit Lesce, and then at the roundabout on the old road towards Vrba, Žirovnica and Jesenice. After few km of driving, we drive straight through crossroad in which roads branch off towards Moste and Žirovnica. When after this we drive past viaduct Završnica, we get to the right turn off, on which we go (we turn sharply right). After few 10 meters at the smaller crossroad we turn left, in next (after 50 meters) right, in the direction of Završnica. After a short descent, the road ascends a little and soon brings us to the spot, where a macadam road branches off to the left towards the mountain hut Valvasorjev dom. We park on new parking lot nearby, which is situated next to an artificial lake by the road on the right side.
Path description:
From the parking lot, we go over a bridge on the barrier of an artificial lake, and on the other side, we turn left. We walk on the wide path, which at first leads by the lake and after this still by slope on the right, straight towards a meadow. By the end of the latter, where nearby we see a bridge over the stream and neat structure on the other side, we notice a wooden signpost with the caption Mali vrh, which is situated on the right. Here we turn on the path which takes us on the northern slope of the ridge Reber (Brezniške peči). After a short initial ascent at the small crossing we continue right (a sign) towards the top of the slope. The path is at first moderately ascending in zig-zags, when a little higher brings us below the rocky cliff which it bypasses on the left, slope and with it also the path become steeper. In few additional zig-zags we ascend on the ridge, where there is a crossing with a sign Mali vrh. Here we turn right (left Peči, Gosjak, Smokuški vrh) and on a rocky path we ascend to the peak of Mali vrh, which we reach in few steps. We for a short time still continue on the ridge towards the west, where the path descends a little, and soon after this on cutted part of the ridge we already see benches with table, which are located below wooden roof. On the column of the latter is attached box with an inscription book.
