Path description:
From the lower station of the round-cabin cable car at Krvavec, continue along the asphalt road towards Štefanja Gora, and walk along it to the first left turn, in the middle of which a marked path branches off to the right, at first a worse road towards Krvavec. The weaker road, along which we continue our ascent, climbs up the right bank of the Rijeka River, and soon a marked path branches off to the left, leading to Krvavec, while we continue straight ahead, following cart track, which climbs further through Lukenjski graben (Lukenjski graben). At a few crossroads we follow the main cart track, from which we start to get higher views that reach all the way to Triglav. Cart track becomes quite rocky further on, but when it leads us higher up to a large gravel area, we continue to the right on a macadam road, which we climb gently to the right and gradually leave Lukenjski graben. When you reach the crest of Požeg Hill (1076 m) a little further on, the road turns sharp left and then joins the asphalt road leading to Krvavec a few minutes further on. The road takes a few minutes to climb up to the tourist farm pr Ambružarju, from where a beautiful view of the Gorenjska region opens up.
From the tourist farm we return to the main road, and from there we continue a few steps further to the left on the path in the direction of Krvavec. The path ahead leads us along the growth of chemaža, and crosses the asphalt road at a higher level. After a fairly steep climb, mostly through the forest, we once again approach the road or reach it for a few steps. Immediately turn right in the direction of mountain pasture Jezerec and climb gently to moderately. Quickly reach cart track, which leads out of the forest to mountain pasture Jezerca, where there are a few wooden huts.
Continue past a few huts, and then, after the huts on the left, the path from the large marked parking lot at mountain pasture Jezerec joins the path from the large marked parking lot at mountain pasture Jezerec. Continue in the direction of Kriška planina, following the path which, first with fine views and then partly through the forest, leads to the lower part of Kriška planina, from where you can climb up to one of the shepherd's huts at mountain pasture.
The description and figures refer to the situation in 2016 (April and May).
