Sveti Lovrenc nad Dragomerom - Strmca (čez Vrhovčev grič)

Access to the starting point:
a) From the motorway Ljubljana - Koper, take the exit Brezovica, then continue along the parallel old road towards Vrhnika. After 4. 5 km of driving, from the point where you have entered the old road, turn right at the traffic lights towards the centre of Dragomera. When the lines in the middle end, turn slightly right and immediately straight uphill. Follow it to the crossroads, where you continue right (signposted) and follow a fairly steep road to the parking lot in front of Sveti Lovrenec.
b) From the motorway Koper - Ljubljana, take the exit Vrhnika, then continue along the parallel old road towards Ljubljana. After 8. 5 km of driving, from the town, when you have left the old road, turn left onto the local road, which continues between meadows and fields. After a few 100 m you reach a hamlet of a few houses, where you turn left at a crossroads and the road turns right a few metres further on. Continue mostly straight ahead, then turn right at a junction with rubbish containers. There is a steep climb and a bend to a crossroads, where you continue left and follow a fairly steep road to a parking lot in front of Sveti Lovrenec.

Path description:
From the parking lot, follow the path to the water reservoir, passing it on the left, and as soon as you arrive in the forest, continue right on the path. After a short climb, you come back to logging trail, which you cross and continue along a wide path that leads you to an undistinguished ridge. Continue on the most sloping path, which mostly follows the ridge. With a few short ascents and descents over two small hills, the path finally leads to logging trail. Continue along it to the main ridge of Fat Hill, where there is a crossroads. Continue left towards Ferjanka, right towards Vrh. The marked path gradually descends and you reach a crossroads where you can go straight along the ridge or left along the marked path. After 10 minutes, the marked path from Ključ or the Pavliček homestead joins us from the right.
Continue straight ahead here. The path continues to climb steeply up to the next crossroads, where we continue to the left (right unmarked cart track in Brezje) After 5 minutes the path leads us to the unmarked and forested peak Strmca, where there is a signpost.
Description and pictures refer to the situation in May 2021.
