Path description:
Some 10 strides northern (direction towards Škofja Loka) from inn Obuti Maček, we will notice blazes, which from the main road point us to the southeast, on the road which leads us past few more houses. The road soon ends, and then we continue on a marked path, which ascends above Žiri. At first, a view opens up a little towards Žiri, and then the path passes into the forest, through which we are for some time ascending, and at the crossings we follow the blazes. Higher, we come out of the forest on panoramic meadows, little ahead by the end of smaller forest area, on the right we notice a bench and next to it inscription box on Goropeški grič.
