Path description:
From the starting point, the path to Kopa, Davovec and Krvavec branches off to the right, and we walk along the asphalt road to a crossroads some 10 metres away, where we continue along the lower right road (left Štefanja gora through Spodnja Štefanja vas) in the direction of Mežnar and the church. After the crossroads, quickly reach the first houses in the hamlet of Zgornja Štefanja vas, and then, when the houses have finished, continue on the left road (slightly right Možjanca) in the direction of the church on Štefanja gora.
The way ahead leads us along a narrower asphalt road that winds through the forest and higher up through a vast meadow. At the end of the meadow, at the point where another path joins from the left (paths from the villages Adergas, Dvorje, Grad, Štefanja Gora. . . ), a short path branches off to the right at the information boards, leading to the open-door farm at Mežnar, and we continue straight on to the end of the road. From the end of the road we go straight onto a well-trodden footpath, first across the meadow and then through the forest, and within a few minutes we reach the church of St. Stephen, located at the top of Štefanja gora, from which we have a beautiful view.
