Path description:
From Krajevni dom in Šenturška Gora, opposite of which is situated also children's playground, we continue on the asphalt road which continues towards the east and leads towards Sidraž. After few minutes of walking on the asphalt road the settlement Šenturška Gora ends, and only few steps further we get to a marked crossroad.
From the crossroad, we continue on the left road in the direction of Sveti Lenart, and from there we go immediately left in the direction of Sveti Ambrož and Krvavec, so that on the left side we bypass the nearby sports field. Blazes and signs for path Martinova pot point us on the path which ascends by the sports field and above it passes into the forest through which it ascends to the spot, where we return on the road.
We continue on the road which makes a right hairpin turn (at the end of the turn slightly to the left path Martinova pot branches off), and then we are there ascending diagonally through the forest. Higher the forest gets thinner and we get to a marked crossing before the hamlet Jagošci.
We continue straight (left shorter path to Ambrož pod Krvavcem), where we quickly get to few houses in hamlet Jagošci, where from the right side almost unnoticeable one of the paths from Sidraž joins.
The path ahead leads us on a macadam road which is ascending through meadow, and higher it crosses a lane of a forest. When we step out of the forest blazes point us left on a cart track, and from there we go immediately right on a little overgrown footpath, on which we return on the road. When we return on the road from the right the path from Stahovica joins, and we continue left and we walk on the road to a water storage, where we go once again left (straight mountain pasture Osredek). Further, we are ascending on a cart track which leads through the forest, and higher it brings us to a grazing fence, where it flattens and then with nice views leads all the way to the church of St. Ambrož, from the church we walk also to tourist farm Pr Ambružarju.
