Kočevje - Mestni vrh (Kalan way)

Access to starting point:
First, we drive to Kočevje, and then we look for Podgorska ulica (which from the main road branches off to the right - direction of driving towards Delnice). At the end of the mentioned street we will notice signposts and by them a nicely arranged parking lot.

Route description:
From the parking lot, we walk to a well-marked junction, and then we continue right in the direction of Kalanova pot (left Grajska pot). The marked path, which at first runs on the road, soon leaves it and continues left through the forest. Further, we ascend on the path on which the steepness increases, and it a few times crosses a forest road. Higher, the steepness decreases and the path joins the forest road on which we continue the ascent. The road soon starts descending and in a few steps brings us to a marked junction, where we continue left on a footpath in the direction of Mestni vrh (straight Koča pri Jelenovem studencu 3 minutes, right Ledenik).
The still well-marked path again steeply ascends and only a little below the summit brings us to the vantage point, from which a view opens up towards Kočevje.
We continue right on a less steep path, which in a few steps of further walking brings us to the summit.

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