Route description:
From the starting point, we continue on the macadam road which at first ascends gently through the forest. The forest soon changes into shrubbery, and the road, which slowly turns towards the right, brings us to the marked junction, where we continue on the right road in the direction of Stari tabor (left Lokev and Strmec). From the junction ahead we continue on a quite gently sloping road, and it soon brings us to the next junction.
We continue straight in the direction of the easier path to Stari tabor (left harder path), and it only a few meters ahead brings us to the Hudičkov spodmol rock shelter, which is only 30 meters distant from the path.
From the rock shelter ahead we walk for some time on the gently sloping road, and then we arrive at a smaller junction, where we continue on the right, somewhat worse road. At the next junction we go left, and then continue on a noticeably steeper road, from which soon to the right branches a path to the other rock shelter (Šprinčnca spodmol), to which it is a 5-minute walk. Higher the road ends, but we continue on the marked path, to which first from the right joins a less trodden path from Vilenica cave, and a little further also the path from Lokev village. At both junctions we continue left and then without difficulty arrive at the panoramic summit.
