Access to the starting point:
From the motorway Ljubljana - Maribor, take the exit Lukovica, and then continue driving towards Moravče. After crossing Radomlje, you will reach the beginning of the settlement Spodnje Prapreče, where at the crossroads turn left towards Gradiška jezera. After a short climb, you reach a junction with a priority road, where you continue right towards Lake Gradišče (left Gradišče), and then just a little further, from the priority road, left towards Lake Gradišče (right Preserje pri Lukovici), in front of which you park in a larger parking lot.
Path description:
From the starting point, continue along the marked trail in the direction of Limbarska gora, which continues along the northern shore of Lake Gradiška. The trail, which continues along a dirt road closed to public traffic, soon turns right and passes to the eastern side of the lake, where the marked trail to Limbarska gora (also the trail to St. Mohorja via the village of Vinje pri Moravčah) turns left into the forest, and we continue along the footpath. There is a short climb, then a descent, and after the descent we approach the lake again. Cross the Drtiljščica River over a bridge, then a little further on you reach a long right turn, at the beginning of which a climbing macadam road branches off to the left, leading towards the village of Prikrnica (the branch is not marked).
At this turn-off, leave the footpath leading around the lake (you can also walk along the western shore of the lake to get here) and continue along the ascending road. After a short climb, you will reach a small crossroads, where you continue to the right, and then quickly emerge from the forest and continue a little further to the village of Prikrnica.
In the middle of the village, we are joined on the right by a waymarked path leading from the main road Krtina - Moravče, and from here on we follow the waymarked path which, some 10 metres further on, turns left at a small crossroads, and then, behind the houses, the road changes to cart track. Follow cart track ascending gently to the forest entrance, followed by a moderate climb through the forest, following the markings at the crossroads. Higher up we reach a macadam road, which we follow to the left, and after a few minutes it leads us out of the forest, where we arrive at a marked crossroads behind a goat house, where we join the trail from Vinj pri Moravče.
Continue straight on, then past the chapel and the farmhouse to the house of spiritual exercises, from which we are only a flight of steps away from the church of St. Mohorja.
