Senožeti - Cicelj (hunting path)

Access to starting point:
A) From the Ljubljana–Celje highway, take the Šentjakob exit and follow the road ahead towards Litija. A few kilometers after Dolsko, the road brings us to a roundabout, where we head towards the village Senožeti. The road then immediately brings us into the village, where at the crossroad we turn right and drive approximately 100 m to a larger parking lot near the school playgrounds.
B) From Litija, drive towards Ljubljana but only to the roundabout, where the signs direct us towards the village Senožeti. The road then immediately brings us into the village, where at the crossroad we turn right and drive approximately 100 m to a larger parking lot near the school playgrounds.

Route description:
From the parking lot, we continue on the road which over the stream brings us to a crossroad from which we continue left. The road then already after a few meters brings us to the next crossroad, where blazes point us left, onto a footpath which continues left from the chapel. The path on the trail is short, as already after a few meters we return to the road. We continue walking on the road for a few minutes, then signs for Miklavž point us left, steeply upwards. Further we follow the path which ascends through the forest and a little higher brings us to a larger clearing, behind which we join the road. The road then brings us to a crossroad in Velika vas, where we continue left in the direction of Križevska vas (right sv. Miklavž). The dense part of the settlement quickly ends, and we further ascend diagonally to the left. With nice views we reach a small saddle, where on the left we notice a hunting observatory, on the right the beginning of the hunting path to Cicelj.
We continue right into the forest on the path in the direction of Cicelj. After some 10 steps we go slightly left (right Velika vas) and continue the ascent on an increasingly steep path. After a few minutes we reach a cart track, which we follow to the left (right we return to Velika vas), from it soon going right onto a steep path. Further we steeply ascend for some time on the steep slope, then the path flattens and brings us onto the ridge of Cicelj, where we join a better-trodden path.
We continue right and after a minute of further walking we step onto the summit of Cicelj, where there are a bench and a log box with a logbook and a stamp.
Senožeti - Velika vas 40 minutes, Velika vas - Cicelj 50 minutes.
