Access to starting point:
From Medvode we drive to the village Sora, where we go towards the village Topol (Katarina). When the road brings us in the mentioned village we turn right and we follow it ahead. It soon brings us to the next crossroad, where the road towards the village Belo branches off to the right. We park here on a smaller parking lot by the road.
From Dobrova we drive ahead towards Polhov Gradec. When signpost for village Topol points us right we go on this road and we follow it further to a crossroad for village Belo, where we park on a smaller parking lot by the road.
Path description:
From the village Topol we continue on a macadam road in the direction of village Belo. After approximately 10 minutes of walking, we leave the road and we continue slightly right in the direction of Grmada. Further, we continue on at first a wide cart track which crosses slopes without large changes in altitude. After few minutes of additional walking from the cart track relatively steep footpath branches off to the left on which we continue the ascent. After few minutes, the steepness decreases and the path brings us on a smaller saddle, where we continue right (left unmarked path on Goljek).
We continue on the path which with some descends and ascents crosses slopes towards the west. The path from which occasionally a view opens up after approximately 1 hour of walking, it brings us to a crossing by which there is situated pleasant bench.
We continue right in the direction of tourist farm Gonte (left Setnica, straight Grmada) on a wide path, which with some short descends and ascents quickly brings us to the mentioned farm.
Left from tourist farm we will notice signposts for Tošč, which point us on a gently sloping and wide cart track. The marked path a little higher leaves the cart track and then starts ascending steeper. The path which almost entirely runs through the forest higher brings us to the summit of Mali Tošč (902m) from which path starts descending towards the saddle between the both peaks.
Further, from the right joins the path from Govejek, and we continue straight on the path which is ascending towards the summit Tošč. After approximately 15 minutes of additional walking, the path brings us on a pleasant peak.
Topol - Gonte 1:15, Gonte - Tošč 45 minutes.
