Zamlake - Krim

Access to starting point:
A) First, we drive to Ig, and from there we continue driving in the direction of Iška vas and Iški Vintgar. Immediately after Iška vas we will arrive in the village Iška, where the road towards Gornji Ig and Rakitna branches off sharply to the right. We head onto the mentioned ascending road, along which we drive past Gornji Ig and higher to the turn-off of the road for Krim. At the turn-off we continue right and then after a few meters we park on the parking lot by the road.
B) From the highway Ljubljana - Koper we head to the exit Brezovica, and then we continue driving in the direction of Podpeč (we can also get to Podpeč from Črna vas or Ig). In Podpeč we continue in the direction of Borovnica, Krim and Rakitna and we continue driving for a short time along the edge of the Ljubljana Moor, then the signs for Rakitna direct us left onto a steep ascending road. The road then leads us through Preserje, where it also starts descending. After a short descent we continue left in the direction of Krim and Rakitna, and we then follow the mostly ascending road to the crossroad, where the road towards Krim branches off to the left. From the mentioned crossroad we continue left, and then we continue driving on the macadam road which leads towards Gornji Ig and Krim. After Brancljeva senožet, where there is the NOB monument, the road starts descending and takes us to a crossroad, where we continue left in the direction of Krim. We park immediately after the crossroad on the parking lot by the road.
C) First, we drive to Cerknica, and then we continue driving in the direction of Begunje; when we arrive in Begunje we follow the signs for Rakitna. From Rakitna we continue driving on the main road towards the settlement Preserje, and we drive along it to the crossroad, where the road towards Krim branches off to the right. From the mentioned crossroad we continue right, and then we continue driving on the macadam road which leads towards Gornji Ig and Krim. After Brancljeva senožet, where there is the NOB monument, the road starts descending and takes us to a crossroad, where we continue left in the direction of Krim. We park immediately after the crossroad on the parking lot by the road.

Route description:
From the starting point we continue on the macadam road in the direction of Krim. At the very beginning the path leads us along the slopes of the 1005 meters high Koreno, which we bypass on the right side, and then quite quickly we pass onto the slopes of Malinovec, a peak which is only 1 meter lower than Krim and which we bypass on the left side. The road on which we walk continues mostly towards the north, while also leading us past one less known peak, namely the 983 meters high Gnojevec, which we bypass on the right side. A little further we arrive at a marked junction, where the path from the hunting cottage Plehanov laz joins us from the left.
At the mentioned junction we leave the road and continue the ascent sharply right on a relatively steep cart track in the direction of the footpath to Krim. In a small valley the cart track ends, and we continue somewhat to the left on a well-trodden path, which a little higher brings us to the fence which limits or prohibits access to the nearby military area. For a short time we walk along the fence, and then we already step onto the road which leads towards the Dom na Krimu. We follow the road to the left, and along it in less than a minute of further walking we arrive at the top of Krim, from where a nice view opens up onto the Ljubljana Moor and the Alps in the background.
