Access to starting point:
From Škofja Loka we drive through Gorenja vas to Žiri. In Žiri, a sign for the village Goropeke points us left upwards (if we come from Logatec, right). The road then runs past the birth house of Leopold Suhadolčan and soon after that, it goes into the forest. When it comes out of the forest, it brings us to the village Goropeke, where we continue right past the church. The road has a little further another crossroad, where we continue on the left upper road, which quickly brings us to the parking lot in front of the hut on Goropeke.
Route description:
From the parking lot, we continue on the forest road on the left side of the mountain hut. The road, after a few dozen steps, brings us to the spot where the marked path branches off to the left towards the mountain hut on Vrh Svetih Treh Kraljev. At first, a nice cart track soon brings us into a quite overgrown part of the path (in the summer). The marked but in some parts poorly visible path then brings us on an asphalt road, where we continue left. The road then through a smaller hamlet brings us to a crossroad, where we continue left on a marked path. The macadam road brings us to the next hamlet, where we continue among houses. Beware of vicious dogs! The path ahead ascends through a meadow and then goes again into the forest. The path ahead soon brings us on a macadam road, where we continue left. This road then past the hayrack brings us on an asphalt road, where we continue left upwards. The road then past the chapel brings us to the next crossroad, where we continue right. Only a short ascent follows past the fire station to the hut on Vrh Svetih Treh Kraljev.
At the mountain hut, we go on the right road which after a short ascent comes out of the forest. Only a few minutes of walking on the more and more panoramic slope of the mountain follow. We reach the peak on which the church stands without problems in approximately ten minutes of a light ascent from the mountain hut.

Discussion about the trip Dom na Goropekah - Vrh Svetih Treh Kraljev

We did this trip in August 2021. The description mostly matches, at the hamlet where it mentions you might encounter fierce dogs, there are no more, at least we didn't notice them and could pass the houses undisturbed. They do have dogs at the previous hamlet, but they are friendly, just bark a little in greeting. We warn about the section described "The path continues up across the meadow and then back into the forest. The path soon brings us to a gravel road, where we continue left." Approximately in the middle of the path through the forest, the trail branches left from the wider path. There is a marking here, but poorly visible, so you can go astray, as we did. We did reach the described gravel road, but there were no more markings there. We turned left and got back to the marked path, but did a bit more path than necessary. Overall, it's a nice trip.
