The walk is easy, technically undemanding, and it can be characterised as a mountain walk with only one serious ascent. It is good for short days and bad weather. There is one fountain along the way.

The route starts in the village of Tihovići near Vogošća via macadam road which leads to the Motka summit. Entire route is considered easier because of lower altitude and rather undemanding climb with a total altitude difference of about 450 meters. The path to the summit runs in the opposite direction from the path leading from Nahorevo to Skakavac, and between these two paths, one will find a valley with the stream of Perački Potok. In some places it offers a great view of the Bukovik summit.
The path goes all the way to the PD Planinar Lodge and continues upwards to the summit itself.
Upon reaching the summit, one will find table and chairs set up there, making it a great place for rest with a beautiful view from the Motka summit (1235 meters above sea level).
