Križovec - Koča na Golici

Access to starting point:
From the highway Ljubljana - Jesenice we go to the exit Lipce and follow the road ahead in the direction of Jesenice. When we come to the traffic-light crossroads, where we join the old road, we continue right in the direction of Žirovnica. We follow this road only a short time because at the next somewhat larger crossroads (traffic light) we continue left in the direction of Javorniški Rovt. The road then goes through the underpass (railway) and then turns left (right Koroška Bela). We follow the road, which higher up starts to ascend steeply, in the direction of Javorniški Rovt. The road ahead runs past Dom Pristava (the hut is a little above the road) and behind the hut we come to the next (smaller) crossroads, where we go right. Ahead we drive on a macadam road all the way to Križovec, which we recognize by the crossroads of several roads (by the crossroads there are a few smaller parking spots and a cross).

Route description:
From Križovec we continue past a cross on the road in the direction of Pusti Rovt. The road at the beginning leads past a gate and then slightly ascends through the forest. After approximately 15 minutes of walking, the road turns to the left and out of the forest brings us to the bottom edge of Pusti Rovt. We continue on the road to which from the right joins the marked path from Dom Pristava na Javorniškem Rovtu, which after some 10 steps of additional walking brings us to the shepherd hut on Pusti Rovt.
From the shepherd hut we continue on the road, which in the upper part of Pusti Rovt turns right into the forest. Only a little further we come to a marked junction, where we continue left (slightly right Sedlo Kočna and Struška) on the road which ahead in a gentle ascent crosses the slopes to the left. A little further from the left also joins the path from Markljev Rovt, and the road quickly brings us to Sedlo Suha.
From the saddle we continue a short time on the road, then the signs for Koča na Golici direct us slightly to the right onto a footpath which further traverses ascending towards the west. The path soon entirely flattens, crosses some panoramic slopes, and then in a gentle descent joins the path from Planina pod Golico.
We continue in the direction of Golica and continue the ascent on a quite wide path, which we follow all the way to Koča na Golici, which we reach after good 10 minutes of additional walking.
