Access to starting point:
First, we drive to Horjul (from Dobrova near Ljubljana or Vrhnika), then we continue driving towards Vrzdenec, Šentjošt and Gorenja vas. At Vrzdenec the road starts to ascend more steeply, then a little further it brings us to a hairpin turn, in the middle of which a road branches off to the left towards Šentjošt and Smrečje. We continue right on the main road, which soon brings us to a small saddle, at the end of which a road branches off to the right towards the village Samotorica. Because there are no appropriate parking spots on the saddle, we descend the road for a good 100 m, then on the left we notice the NOB monument, next to which we park.
We can also reach the starting point from the direction of Gorenja vas and Polhov Gradec. In this case, at the hamlet Ljubljanica we continue in the direction of Horjul. We park at the aforementioned monument, which is located approximately 200 m above the crossroad in Ljubljanica.
Route description:
From the monument we continue on an ascending road, which quickly brings us to a crossroad, where an asphalt road branches off to the left towards the village Samotorica. We head onto the mentioned road, which in a moderate, occasionally also quite steep ascent brings us to a panoramic grassy ridge. Here the road slightly flattens, then in a few minutes of additional walking it brings us to the tourist farm Pr Hlipč. Beside the mentioned farm we pass a few more houses, then the road completely flattens and brings us to the spot where the signs for Kožljek direct us left onto an ascending cart track. After a short ascent the cart track brings us to a poorly marked junction, where we continue sharply right. Ahead we ascend diagonally across a hayfield, then the cart track brings us into a strip of forest, where it turns left. A little further the blazes from the cart track direct us slightly right onto a moderately steep footpath, which quickly brings us out of the forest. When we step out of the forest the path completely disappears, but we continue straight towards the upper edge of the meadow. At the upper edge of the meadow we notice signs for Kožljek, which direct us into the forest onto an again easily followable little path, along which in 5 minutes of steep ascent we reach the summit.
