From Ljubljana, take the motorway towards Gorenjska and leave the motorway at the Cerklje na Gorenjskem / Kamnik / Komenda / Smlednik exit. Immediately you reach a fork, turn right and follow the main road to Kamnik. In the town you will come to a large T-junction where you turn left and follow the road over the Kamniško Bistrica, just after the river turn left again and follow the road for a longer distance towards the Črnivec Pass. From here, continue following the main road past Kališ and Podvolovjek to the village of Luče, where you turn left at the fork for Podvolovjek. Follow the road along the Savinja for a longer distance, passing through Robanov kot and Solčava, and after these two places you will come to a fork, which you will recognise by a small wooden house between the two roads. Turn left towards the Logar valley and follow the road to the hut under the Rinka waterfall, where you park.

On foot, continue up the wooden stairs opposite the hut, where you will also be directed by a signpost. As soon as you climb the stairs, you will find yourself in front of a number of signposts. Here we take the left path. Follow the stone path up to the Rinke waterfall, from where you turn left over a short wooden bridge onto a steeply ascending path which, after about 15 minutes, drops slightly and is replaced by alternating wooden steps and wooden bridges. Soon we will reach the source of the Savinja.
