Access to starting point:
From the motorway Ljubljana - Koper, we take the Postojna exit and follow the road ahead in the direction of Pivka, Reka and Ilirska Bistrica. In the settlement Pivka we leave the main road which runs towards Ilirska Bistrica and we continue driving towards the village Knežak. Only a little after Knežak, we come to the village Šembije, where we need to pay attention to the first turn-off to the left. So from the main road we turn sharply left and we continue driving on a macadam road which first gently, then a little steeper ascends over karst fields. The road then flattens and brings us to a smaller plateau terrain below Volovja reber. If we intend to do a circular tour on the ridge of Volovja reber, we can park already here; if not, we drive further on an occasionally a little rougher macadam road which higher brings us to a sharp left turn, in the middle of which a rougher road branches off to the right. We continue on the left "main" road which higher brings us to the next crossroad where we park.
Route description:
From the crossroad we go sharply left onto a somewhat worse forest road which starts to ascend transversely over increasingly panoramic grassy slopes. The increasingly worse road soon turns right and almost completely flattens. A little further we notice a rougher cart track which branches off to the right from the road (path to Velika Milanja 20 minutes), but we continue straight ahead on the road which soon brings us to the saddle between Velika Milanja on the right and the summit of Bele ovce on the left.
Here the road turns left again (west direction) and after a few more steps of walking brings us to the upper foot of Bele ovce. Here we need to pay attention, as we will notice a less trodden footpath which brings us to the summit of Bele ovce in 5 minutes of further walking.

Discussion about the trip Kamenščina - Bele ovce

Best view from Volovje rebri. The summit of Bela ovca is the most panoramic of all 4 summits of the ridge, offering 360° views towards Pivško podolje and its hills and mountains, Čičarija and Brkine, Učka and Kvarnerski zaliv, Snežnik and its forests, our 3 mountain groups etc. Besides the path from Kamenščina, there are several other interesting trails to this summit, which I described under Velika Milanja, with the difference that you either circle this summit or after the antenna ascend a bit right to Bele ovce (about 100 m ascent from the road). The summit is marked only with an X on a low post.
