Route description:
From the starting point, we head onto the side road in the direction of Osolnik, log cabin Osovnik and Dom na Govejku. At first, we ascend along the macadam road, from which soon to the left branches off the mountain path to Govejek, we continue along the road to the right bend, where after crossing the Govejski graben stream we continue left onto the marked mountain path. For some time we ascend beside the stream, then the path turns slightly left and goes onto the slope. There follow a few minutes of steep ascent, then we arrive at a marked junction, where we continue right towards Osolnik (left Govejek). After a short gentle traverse we arrive at the macadam road, which we reach at the intersection, and from the intersection we continue on the cart track in the direction of Osolnik. Soon we return to the road, and leave it again when the signs for log cabin Osovnik direct us right onto the path, along which we quickly ascend to the mentioned log cabin.
