Route description:
From the center of Moravče we continue along the main road which leads towards Izlake. Initially we walk on the sidewalk, somewhat behind the company Nissan Krulc, then we go slightly right onto the road in the direction of the settlements Ribče and Dešen and the mountain hut Planinski dom Ušte - Žerenk. The path ahead starts to ascend on a somewhat narrower asphalt road, from which, when looking back, a nice view opens up towards Limbarska gora, and with good visibility the views reach to the highest peaks of the Kamnik–Savinja Alps. Soon after Moravče ends, we arrive at the hamlet Podbrdo, where we leave the asphalt road and continue left in the direction of the mountain hut and sv. Miklavž.
Behind the houses, which we bypass on the left side, the path goes into the forest and starts to ascend a little more steeply, quite quickly it also splits.
We choose the left path (right sv. Miklavž), which ascends transversely towards the left, higher up it widens into a newer cart track. For a few minutes we ascend along the mentioned cart track, then again along the mountain trail, which higher crosses the macadam road, a few dozen steps higher we reach the asphalt road, which we follow to the left. We walk along the road to a smaller saddle, where the blazes direct us left onto the path that crosses a panoramic meadow, over which, with nice views, we walk to the nearby mountain hut.
