From Zgornje Jezersko, continue driving over the Jezerski vrh alpine pass to Železna Kaple / Bad Eisenkappel, where you turn left towards Šajda / Zell Schaida.

Path description:
From the parking lot, first walk to the nearby mountain hut, then continue along the marked trail towards the Hochobir / Hochobir peak. The trail goes shortly above the hut into the forest, through which it then climbs for some time. Higher up, the path, along which you can see a large number of natural history teaching signs, is laid out and leads out of the forest into lane of dwarf pines. A few minutes of easy walking follows and the path leads us to a bench at the top of the Kraguljša lookout.
