Access to starting point:
From Ljubljana, we drive on the highway towards Koper and take the Unec exit. At the crossroads, we continue right in the direction of Planina, where at the crossroads we turn sharply left towards Postojna (up to here also possible on the old road). Further, we drive through Planina and at the spot where we notice signs for Strmca and Studeno, we turn right. The road soon brings us to the next crossroads, where it says left Postojna, straight Strmca and Studeno, right nothing. Here we continue straight and follow the road to the village Lohača, where we turn right in the direction of Planinska gora. We park immediately behind the village on the parking lot by the road.
From Postojna on the old road we drive towards Ljubljana. Soon after the village Mačkovec in a sharp right bend, the road branches off to the left towards the village Strmca. This road then soon brings us to the next crossroads, where we continue left towards the village Strmca and Studeno. When the road brings us into the village Lohača we turn right towards Planinska gora. We park immediately behind the village on the parking lot by the road.
Route description:
From the parking lot, we continue on the road along which we parked further. Already after a few dozen meters the road goes into the forest through which it moderately ascends. After approximately 20 minutes of walking, we come out of the forest and immediately after that to a crossroads. Here we leave the road and turn right onto a cart track, which gently ascends on a grassy slope towards the east. The cart track then crosses a pasture fence and soon after that turns into a footpath, which we follow along an indistinct ridge. The path along the ridge occasionally entirely disappears but in nice weather this presents no obstacle. This path, which technically is not demanding, we follow all the way to the top.
In the fog, the orientation from the road to the top is difficult.

Discussion about the trip Lohača - Petričev hrib

Was there in summer 2010 by bike. The start of the path was in Lazah. Nice training for lungs and everything that goes with it. But it would be interesting to try the traverse Petričev hrib - sv. Lovrenc. Has anyone been? Opinions?

Of course someone has. Interesting path to me. You can take a more level path (need to descend to the valley only before Lovrenc), or over all the hillocks up and down. If it's not exactly foggy, orientation is not difficult. Mostly you can find a trodden path, if nothing else at least from animals. Not suitable for bike.
