Path description:
From home, we continue in the direction of Olševa, and the road still leads us on. Behind the house, we first pass a chapel, a cross a little further on, and later a small hunting observation post. When the road, which continues without major changes in altitude, passes into the forest, it splits into two parts, and we continue along the upper right-hand road in the direction of Olševa (slightly to the left, St Anne's Church with the Black Mary 2 minutes). We continue to climb gently to moderately, and then, after a slightly more distinct right-hand bend, the road lays down and leads us out of the forest to mountain pasture Rep or Repija.
After mountain pasture the road descends slightly and then splits after a left turn. Continue on the slightly right-hand road, which continues to climb cross-country and then quickly ends and turns into a mountain path. The path continues through the forest, going transversely to the left without any major changes in elevation. The passage through the two anthills is a bit awkward, as the anthills slip on their needles, but otherwise the crossing is easy. When the slope flattens out, you quickly reach a grazing fence, where you see a warning along the path that there is a heavi bull on mountain pasture. Cross the grazing fence and emerge from the woods, where a fine view opens up towards Olševa, but the track becomes a little more difficult to follow at this point. Keep slightly to the right as you cross mountain pasture and then enter lane in the forest, where you descend to a cattle trough. Once above the trough, exit the wood and you reach the central part of mountain pasture, with a newer marker a little to the left.
