Access to starting point:
From highway Ljubljana - Obrežje we go to the exit Višnja Gora and we drive in the direction of the center of the settlement. Only few 10 meters further from bar Kic bil, we will notice on the left side a bigger marked parking lot, where we park.
Path description:
From the parking lot, we continue towards the center of Višnja Gora, and then at the first crossroad, we continue right in the direction of Polževo. A little further, in the next crossroad, we notice the first red signposts for castle Stari grad, which point us on the left road which a little ahead we leave and past few houses we ascend to the other road which we reach near the church. We continue through the old part of the town, and then in front of primary school Edo Turnher Primož, we notice an information board for Forest teaching trail "po sledeh višnjanskega polža (by the traces of snail of Višnja Gora)".
A little behind the school signs for castle Stari grad, Polževo and the path Jurčičeva pot, point us to the left, past few houses, on a path, which passes into the forest. Through the forest, we start ascending steeper on a cart track, and after few minutes we get to a marked crossing, where we continue right in the direction of the castle Stari grad (the path straight bypasses the castle Stari grad and leads further towards Polževo).
From the crossing ahead we leave the cart track and we continue the ascent on the mountain path, which near the castle becomes quite overgrown. Few 10 meters we are ascending on an overgrown path, and from there a view opens up a little on surroundings.
We can descend on the same path, or we continue ahead and on a better beaten and less overgrown path we descend to the cart track, where we step back on the path which we left before the last ascent on castle, and there we then descend into Višnja Gora.
