Access to the starting point:
If you are driving from the route of Lubljana, as I was, turn left off the main road before Ribnica, as directed by the signs "Obrtna zona Breg" and "Izvestska zona Lepovče", then drive through this zone to the end, where the main road goes to the right over the former railway line (which is going to be built again), and after crossing the railway line, drive for about 200 metres to the edge of the woods, where you park.
Path description:
From the starting point, just follow the signs. There are a lot of markings, the trail is very nicely arranged, so here's a shout-out to PD Ribnica. It will take you 25 minutes to get from the starting point to Jamarski dom, where there is also Francetova jama. The trail is gentle, as you only ascend 35 metres and then descend 25 metres back towards home. The lodge is open every day (see photo) and there is an Francetova jama at the lodge, which you cannot visit as it is closed with an iron gate. Supposedly it is very beautiful, but the legislation is such that the locals cannot afford to fix it up and open it to the public. You will also be greeted by an interesting four-legged friend. On the day I visited, the home had stuffed calamari, chevapččiče and pleskavice, as well as pancakes for snacks.
From here, it's a 50-minute walk to St Anne's Church, and the mountain hut is just 100 metres from the church. You ascend from 580 to 910 metres. The mountain lodge does not offer hot food and I think it is only open at weekends.
There is a nice view south from St Anne.
From the mountain lodge you can go on for another 15 minutes and reach the walls of St Anna, from where the view opens up to the north side, towards Dobrepolje and beyond.
The staff at the mountain lodge told us that people like to go to St. Anne in winter. So if you are reading this in winter, I recommend a visit.

Prijeten zimski izlet. Danes dopoldan na tem koncu ni deževalo, pot je bila mestoma nekoliko razmočena od prejšnjih padavin. Razgled imeniten. Splačalo se je zapustiti megleno in deževno Ljubljano.

8. novembra 2015 smo šli gor v čudovito toplem vremenu. Po zdrobljenem suhem listju je kar malo drselo  . Lep družinski izlet. Potem pa v gostilno Harlekin
