Access to starting point:
We drive to the parish church of St. Anton in Železniki, where we park on a marked asphalt parking lot between the church and the main road. The church is located few 100 meters further from the company Domel, in the direction towards Zali Log.
Path description:
From the parking lot, we go towards the entrance into the church, and a little left from the church we notice stairs, by which there is caption Antonov vrtec (kindergarten). We ascend on stairs, and on the top of the stairs we go right. The kindergarten and some houses we bypass on the left side, and we ascend on a cart track to a crossing at the hunting observatory.
From the crossing, we go right (left - path on a cart track, on which it is also possible to come on Prtovč), and a little ahead we notice the next blaze. On the meadow, the path entirely vanishes, and on the tree a little higher we notice the next blaze, from which we continue uphill, at first by the edge of the forest and then through the forest, where the footpath appears again, and then we quickly reach a little wider footpath. Next follows an ascent on the mentioned footpath which is quite steeply ascending through the forest. Higher, the path flattens and brings us on a cart track, where it splits.
We go left towards Prtovč (right Draboslovica) and we continue on a cart track which is moderately ascending through the forest. A little further, we reach the ridge, on which we continue the ascent, and at the crossings we follow the blazes. Higher, the path flattens and a little ahead we reach the macadam road which we follow to the left. While walking on the road from the left joins the path on a cart track, and we continue with the crossing. The road further gradually passes on the slopes of Štedel vrh (1145 meters), and a little before its end we leave it and we continue slightly right on a marked path. Also, the path ahead leads us on slopes of the mentioned summit, and because the path is little visited and crosses some gullies and torrents and is poorly maintained, on some steep parts there is a danger of slipping. When the crossing ends, we step on a cart track, and there past an old hayloft we get to the spot, where from the left the path from Jesenovec joins. We continue straight, where below the route of a high voltage power line we reach the saddle between Pašk on the left and Štedel vrh on the right. From here a nice view opens up on Ratitovec, and the cart track which is slightly descending, we follow all the way to the spot, where we join the asphalt road, and there in few 10 strides we get to the church on Prtovč.
