Šujica (Na Gmajni) - Toško Čelo (along the stream Ostrožnik)

Access to the starting point:
a) Drive to Dobrova (to get here from Ljubljana, Brezovica pri Ljubljani or Podutiko via the Preval pass), then continue in the direction of Polhov Gradec. Turn right at the sign for the end of Šujica, then after a few 10 metres turn right at the triangular crossroads. Continue for another 30 metres or so and then take the first road that turns left. Park in a suitable place along the road, which takes you past the goat house and into the forest.
b) From Polhov Gradec, drive towards Ljubljana, then turn left at the sign marking the beginning of Šujica. After a few 10 metres, you will come to a triangular crossroads, where you turn right. Continue for another 30 metres or so and then take the first road that turns left. Park in a suitable place along the road, which takes you past the goat house and into the forest.

Path description:
The road along which we park goes into the woods a little beyond the goat house, then climbs almost imperceptibly along the Ostrožnik stream, with a longer meadow stretching alongside. Cross the stream and immediately afterwards, at a small crossroads, turn right so that you can see the meadow from the end, and you can also see the archery range. Here the road turns slightly left and turns into cart track and continues alongside a small stream. Climb steadily alongside the stream for a while, then take the tracks to the right (the first two, which continue to the left, continue alongside the stream and lead to a hemlock plantation, the third leads to a nearby hunting observation post, and all three end shortly afterwards).
The track continues uphill and becomes steeper, turning right at a small older abandoned quarry and climbing up a small pass to the left. The path continues on the less well-trodden cart track, which leads along a faint ridge, but when the track from the ridge retreats to the right and widens, it is abandoned and the path continues to the left on a well-traced, but also rather overgrown path, which continues along an increasingly distinct ridge. A few minutes of steep ascent follow, where the path is halted here and there by a few fallen trees (mostly the aftermath of the 2014 hailstorm). Higher up, we cross another track and then join one of the marked paths leading from Preval towards Toško Čel. A few 10 steps higher, you will come out on an asphalt road, walk along it for about a minute, and then continue along a footpath that branches off the road slightly to the right. The path continues along the ridge for a short distance, then turns slightly to the right and leads to the hunting lodge at Toško Čel.
Description and pictures refer to the situation in 2016 (May).
