Path description:
From the parking lot at the church of St. Vid we return to the main road, and from there we continue towards Osredek. Already after few 10 meters we get to a crossroad at the chapel, where we continue left in the direction of Osredek and only a little further at the unmarked crossroad we go again left. An asphalt road which continues without large changes in altitude or is even slightly descending, eventually brings us to the settlement Zala. Here at first a nice view opens up on surrounding hills, and then we walk past few more houses in the village.
After the village, the path branches off to the left downwards towards the 20 minutes distant waterfall Kotel, and we continue straight, where the path or road leads past the quarry Zala. After the quarry, the road turns towards the east, where at first on the south side bypasses Preska (Preska is 805 meters high peak a little above the road), and then continues on and by the ridge of Debeli hrib.
From Debeli hrib follows a little longer descent, and then we get to the next marked crossing, where from the left joins a marked path from Rakitna, and we continue straight in the direction of Bukovec, Krvava Peč and Iški Vintgar on the road which ascends a little.
From the crossing ahead, the forest gets thinner, and the road passes on panoramic meadows, from where a nice view opens up on hills above the river Iška and on hills above its tributaries. After few minutes of additional walking, we get to the beginning of the village Osredek, and we continue a little further to the near the tourist farm, where we can have a snack, or also a little further to the church of St. Primož and Felicijan.
