Access to starting point:
From the highway Ljubljana - Koper, we take the Brezovica exit, then continue driving in the direction of Dobrova and Polhov Gradec. At the end of the village Gabrje, we will arrive at a marked crossroads, where the road to the villages Belo, Osredek and Topol branches off to the right. Here we park at a suitable place by the transformer, or already a little earlier at one of the suitable places along the road.
Route description:
On the other side of the road opposite the transformer, we will notice hiking signposts for Topol, which direct us onto a rough forest road that ascends on the right side of one of the houses. The road continues relatively steeply uphill and quickly brings us to a smaller interesting cave from which a spring emerges. From here we continue along the road for some time, then, when we step out of the forest, just a few metres before the smaller hamlet we continue left onto a marked footpath. The path ahead first ascends over a panoramic grassy ridge, then returns to the forest, through which it ascends for the next few minutes. Higher, we step onto a grassy hayfield and walk across it to a macadam road. We continue along the road only briefly, then signs for Katarina direct us left onto a footpath that moderately ascends through the forest. Higher, the trail flattens out completely for a short time, then brings us to the road that leads from Toško čelo towards Katarina. We follow the road to the left, which in a gentle descent brings us to a smaller crossroads by which a cross stands.
At the cross, we continue left and ascend on a gently sloping partly asphalt road to the Vaška krčma, by which we notice the next hiking signposts. Here we continue right in the direction of Sveti Jakob and proceed along a relatively steep road, on which we arrive at a larger chapel in a few minutes.
At the chapel, we continue right (left to Sveti Jakob) and proceed along the still asphalted road, which after 5 minutes of further walking brings us to the church of St. Catherine.
Just before the church, we continue left onto a cart track that ascends by the church wall and then turns left. We follow the cart track, which ascends transversely, for only a few minutes, then continue steeply uphill to the right, where after a short ascent we reach the ridge of Rog. Here we continue right and in a few minutes of further walking step onto the panoramic summit.

Discussion about the trip Gabrje - Rog

| viharnik1. 12. 2010 |
We reach the top of Rog 798m also from the direction of the ridge between Sveta Katarina (church) and the chapel of Svete Marije pod Jeterbenkom. A little before the chapel on the left hillock we spot benches, where we follow the path along the top of the sometimes forested ridge. In between on the left we notice an abandoned weekend house, where we continue straight ahead, on the last ridge quite steep ascent right to the top of Rog. From the chapel to the top it takes only about 15-20 min. On the north side of Rog with thick snow cover one often slides onto the local road that leads up from Žlebi!.
