The village of Lukomir is usually not included in this walk as it makes it too long and strenuous, but you can visit it if you like. You can reach the village of Vrdolja by car, and then set out on foot towards Blace. The lake can be reached via a road connecting all the surrounding villages. It , kojim su povezana sva okolna sela. The road to Lukomir branches off just after you set out, as to the roads to the villages of Ćuhovići and Blaca a little further down. The ascent to the peaks Markovac (1450 MASL) and Veliki lisac (1504 MASL) starts by the lake. Both peaks offer a wonderful view of the canyon of the Rakitnica. Markovac is the only place in the area where there is mobile phone signal. The upper road to Lukomir via Lovnica is rough, tiring, and takes a long time to travel.
The return is easy, without ascents. You pass by the village of Ćuhovići and continue to the starting point, the village of Vrdolje.
