Path description:
At the starting point is a chapel and nearby there are signposts for Jasovnik, Ločica and Trojane. We go left in the direction of Jasovnik. After few ten meters we go past some house. A little further on a tree we notice the sign for Jasovnik and Ločica. It points us left upwards on a meadow and then in the forest. The path is at first wide, blazes are visible, but they are rare. After a short ascent, we come to a crossing, where we go on the upper, the right path. Here we don't notice any blazes. Then the path descends a little, but only for few meters. We come to a crossing, where we go left upwards. Here again there aren't any blazes, and they would be helpful. The path leads us upwards, where we finally notice a blaze. We should also watch the path, because after few meters we have to go left upwards. Here is a lot of cutted trees. There aren't any blazes, but we notice them a little higher. The path leads us through the forest, it is visible, but the caution isn't nuisance. For a short time, we relax, when we come to a crossing Mali Jasovnik (left) - Jasovnik (right).
To Mali Jasovnik we have a little less than 5 minutes of ascent. Through treetops we have a nice view towards Motnik.
From the crossing to Jasovnik it separates us 10 more minutes of ascent on a steeper slope. From here, the blazes are well visible. The path is full of stones and in rainy weather it can be very slippery. A little below the summit it slightly flattens. When we come to the inscription box, we are on the summit.
It should be warned, that we must be careful while we are walking, because below the summit because of a poorly marked path we can quickly go astray.
