Begunje (Krpin) - Sveti Peter above Begunje (by cart track)

Access to starting point:
From highway Ljubljana - Jesenice we go to the exit Radovljica (from Gorenjska side exit Lesce) and follow the road ahead in the direction of Begunje. In Begunje (only a little after the crossroad, where a road branches off to the left towards Žirovnica) we continue left in the direction of recreation center Krpin (straight Draga and Tržič). We park on a large parking lot by recreation center Krpin.

Route description:
From the parking lot, we continue on the asphalt road which higher up over a small bridge crosses the stream Blatnica and then changes into a macadam road. We continue to follow the road, and it soon brings us to a marked crossroad, where we continue on the left road in the direction of St. Peter (right St. Peter longer path and saddle Kališča). The road, which is getting worse, then quickly brings us to the next crossroad, where we continue right on a cart track (marked). The cart track then starts to ascend more steeply and brings us higher out of the forest on grassy slopes over which in a few minutes we ascend to the little church from which a beautiful view opens up.

The trip can be extended to the following destinations: Sankaška koča, Smokuški vrh, Pleče ( 55 min), Tomčeva koča na Poljški planini (1 h 55 min)

We recommend: trips from the same starting point, similar trips, panorama, summit register
