From the village of Jurandvor on Krk, head toward the Tommy store at the top of the hill, then continue on until you reach the bridge with the blue railing. After the bridge, a narrower road branches off to the left; turn onto it (Church of St. John). Continue along the winding, uphill road all the way to the parking lot in front of the church, where you can park.

Walk back down the road you came from, but only as far as the turnoff to the gravel path on the right, where you should turn (you’ll recognize it by the directional signs). Continue along the forest trail until you reach the turnoff located behind the pasture gate. Here, turn right toward Plato Meseca and join the narrower path. A steep, prolonged ascent over rocky terrain follows, offering views of the sea along the way. At the end of the ascent, you’ll reach Plato Meseca, a plateau consisting of meadows and rocks. Continue straight ahead. The trail will soon begin to curve to the left, and eventually you’ll reach a gravel road; join it and turn left. A short stretch of walking along the road follows, after which you’ll turn left again. Next comes an ascent over gravelly terrain, flanked by large boulders. This ascent continues all the way to the summit.
