Access to starting point:
From highway Ljubljana - Jesenice we go to the exit Lesce, where at the roundabout, we go on the old road in the direction of Žirovnica and Jesenice. After few kilometers of driving, we drive to a crossroad in Žirovnica, where we turn right, and already after few meters again right over the railway in the direction of east. When we drive past the village Žirovnica we run into a settlement sign - Selo pri Žirovnici. We park on an appropriate place nearby.
Path description:
Only few meters ahead from the settlement sign, at the light right turn (a little before the inn Osvald), at a little bigger building with pink facade, we turn from the road left on a street, which windingly ascends among houses. At the first crossroad, we turn left, and soon after this, at the second right, where we also run into a wooden signpost "Sv. Lovrenc". When the asphalt ends, after few 10 meters at the crossing before the residential building we turn left on a cart track uphill, where we soon run into a grazing fence with a door and caption "Sv Lovrenc". We continue on a cart track of a pasture (left shortcuts), which after few 10 meters turns left, later a little higher (on the right a shortcut branches off), also right past a religious symbol of the road of the forest, where it turns even a little more to the right in the direction of east. When we run into a wooden cottage, the path soon turns left in the forest, where we walk on stairs by a wooden fence. After few minutes walk by this fence (higher - right one more turn-off of a shortcut), we run into the last wooden signpost, where we continue straight (left uphill Brinjev vrh), and after few 10 meters of additional walking through the forest we get to the church of St. Lovrenc.
Inscription book is situated under the wish bell in front of the entrance into a church.
