Use "GetParent"

string path = Directory.GetCurrentDirectory(); //current path
string path1 = Directory.GetParent(path).ToString(); //parent of current path
string path2 = Directory.GetParent(path1).ToString(); //parent..
string path3 = Directory.GetParent(path2).ToString(); //parent..

Optimize it if you really want to use it. It just shows how it works.
