Access to the starting point:
a) From Idrija or Cerkno drive towards Tolmin, where at Reka become aware of the approaching start of the route. At first we cross the Kozarska grapa stream, a little further on after a right turn we almost imperceptibly cross the Poličanka stream, and we drive a little further to the hamlet of Laze (the hamlet is located between the road marker 9. 0 km and 8. 5 km), where at the fork in the road to the right to the nearby houses the described trail begins. There are no parking spaces at the starting point, so you will need to park a little earlier or later at a suitable place along the road.
b) Take the road to Bača pri Modreju (to get here from Most na Soči or Podbrdo) and then continue driving towards Idrija. At Reka, between the road marker 8. 5 km and 9. 0 km, you will reach the hamlet of Laze, where the route described above starts at the fork in the road to the left to the nearby houses. There are no parking spaces at the starting point, so you will need to park a little earlier or later at a suitable place along the road.
Path description:
From the main road, take the side road which climbs up to the nearby houses, and when the road ends, take the cart track road up to the highest house, which you pass on the right hand side. After the house, a traceable path appears, first crossing the left side of the stream (right bank) and then crossing to the right side of the stream (left bank) at a photogenic jumper.
The path then becomes quite steep and climbs above the steep ravine of the Sjaunk (Seep) stream, but the path is generally set back from the steep slope by about a metre, so there is no significant risk of slipping. There is a longer traverse followed by some steeper parts, where there is also the possibility of slipping, especially in wet conditions. Higher up, the slope flattens out and the forest is replaced by pastureland on the right. A few minutes further on, the path turns slightly to the right and leads to the village of Police, where an asphalt road is reached between the houses.
Follow the road to the left (the Church of the Nativity in Police is on the right for 5 minutes) and continue between the houses. At a small crossroads turn slightly left, and at the next crossroads turn slightly right in the route Šentviška Gora (slightly left Police, house Nos 20-23).
Here the asphalt ends, and after a few steps we reach the next fork, where the marked path continues along the lower path towards Šentviška Gora, and we continue along the upper path and continue on the dirt road. It is followed by a mostly cross-country climb up the slopes of Košarica (961 m), from where we occasionally get a nice view, and the path also leads us past two small streams, the second of which has a nice trough where we can fill up with water. Continuing down the slope, we reach the plateau and pass a few houses to reach the asphalt road Šentviška Gora - Bukovo Vrh.
Follow the road to the left (Bukovo Vrh to the right) and in a few steps you will reach the next crossroads from which you continue to the right in the direction of Gorski Vrh.
After the crossroads, the road descends slightly, then begins to climb steeply and leads us past the Travnikar homestead, and a little higher still leads us to the next crossroads.
To the left continues the road towards the settlement Ponikve, to the right the road towards the settlement Bukovo Vrh, and we continue straight on the unmarked path, which first climbs over the meadow, then transitively passes into the woods, where we cross the first pasture fence, when we get out of the woods we go over the fence twice more.
Here we merge with the path from Ponikve village, and we continue straight towards Črvov vrh, where we can already see the antenna tower on it. A few minutes of moderate climbing follow, and after crossing the pasture fence, we are only a few steps of easy walking away from the top.
Starting point - Police 1:00, Police - Črvov vrh 1:30.
