Access to starting point:
From Medvode we drive to the village Sora, where we head towards the village Topol (Katarina). When the road brings us to the mentioned village we turn right and follow it further. Soon it brings us to the next intersection, where the road towards the village Belo branches off to the right. We park here on a smaller parking lot by the road.
From Dobrova we drive ahead towards Polhov Gradec. When the signpost for the village Topol directs us right, we go on this road and follow it further to the intersection for the village Belo, where we park on a smaller parking lot by the road.
Route description:
From the village Topol we continue on a macadam road in the direction of village Belo. After approximately 10 minutes of walking, we leave the road and continue slightly right in the direction of Grmada. Further, we continue on at first a wide cart track which crosses slopes without large changes in altitude. After a few minutes of additional walking, a relatively steep footpath branches off to the left from the cart track, on which we continue the ascent. After a few minutes, the steepness decreases and the path brings us to a smaller saddle, where we continue right (left unmarked path to Goljek).
We continue on the path which with some descends and ascents crosses slopes towards the west. The path from which occasionally a view opens up brings us after approximately 1 hour of walking to a crossing by which there is a pleasant bench.
We continue right in the direction of tourist farm Gonte (left Setnica, straight Grmada) on a wide path, which with some short descends and ascents quickly brings us to the mentioned farm.
Left from the tourist farm we will notice signposts for Tošč, which point us to a gently sloping and wide cart track. The marked path a little higher leaves the cart track and then starts ascending steeper. The path, which almost entirely runs through the forest, brings us higher to the summit of Mali Tošč (902m) from which the path starts descending towards the saddle between the two peaks.
Further, the path from Govejka joins from the right, and we continue straight on the path which ascends towards the summit Tošč. After approximately 15 minutes of additional walking, the path brings us to a pleasant peak.
Topol - Gonte 1:15, Gonte - Tošč 45 minutes.
Along the route: Turistična kmetija Gonte (820m), Mali Tošč (902m)

A bit longer path. Sad that there is no lookout tower at the top.

Yesterday my wife and I set off for Tošč. In the valley nasty fog, the higher we went the brighter it got. Soon the sun shone on us and it stayed that way until the top of Tošč. At the top it started blowing strongly, so we quickly went back. At some places the path was very muddy, additionally softened by orienteering recreationalists who had some competition. Otherwise a nice hike to breathe fresh air and relax the mind. Best regards Tanja and Borut.
