Koča pri Savici - Dom pri Krnskih jezerih

Access to the starting point:
From the motorway Ljubljana - Jesenica, take the Lesce exit and follow the road towards Bled and on to Bohinjska Bistrica. Continue driving towards Bohinjsko jezero (Ribčev laz), at which you will come to a crossroads, where you will continue straight along the left (south) side of the lake in the direction of Ukanec and the Savica waterfall. Follow this increasingly narrow road to the large parking lot at the Savica cottage. There is a charge for parking.

Path description:
From the parking lot, follow the wide footpath towards the Savica waterfall and the Komna home. After a short ascent, the path leads us to a marked crossroads where the tourist path to the right branches off towards the Savica waterfall, and we continue slightly to the left or straight along the wide footpath in the direction of Komna. The path continues to climb for a short time along Savica, and then leads us to the first of the 48 marked serpentines. After an hour and a half of moderate ascent through the forest, the path leads us to the 48 serpentine from which we have a beautiful view of Lake Bohinj. Here the path turns slightly to the right and passes into the valley called Pekel, where it climbs gently for a while, then turns to the right and climbs slightly steeper again. After only a few 10 paces, the path turns left again and continues to climb parallel to the valley. The path, which is steep to moderately steep, gradually turns into a more sparse forest, from which you can soon see the house on Komna. The way forward leads us past a small man-made cave, and higher up, past a natural abyss, which is fenced off to prevent any of the hikers from falling into it. Next, the path climbs a little more and after a few steps of further walking leads us to a crossroads where the path to the right branches off to the Black Lake.
Continue straight ahead on the wide path (mulatjeri), which takes you just a little higher to the next crossroads. Continue again to the left (to the right the cottage at Triglav Lakes) along the path, which climbs a little more steeply and after a few minutes of further walking leads us to the hut at Komna.
From the home, continue right (left Vogel, Tolminski Kuk and mountain pasture Govnjač) along the marked path towards the hut below Bogatin. Next, a pleasant and completely sloping path leads us in 15 minutes' walk to Mountain pasture na Kraju, in the middle of which stands the hut Koča pod Bogatinom.
On the other side of Mountain pasture, a path branches off to the right towards Mountain pasture Za Skalo, and we continue straight ahead along a wide mulatier in the direction of Bogatinsko sedlo and Krn. The path then ascends crosswise over the relatively steep slopes of Srednji vrh, skirting the valley of Gracija on the right. The trail then climbs considerably further to the left, where it approaches the steep slopes of Bogatino. There is only a turn to the right and the path leads to Bogatinsko sedlo, from which a fine view of Krn opens up. At the saddle, continue straight ahead in the direction of Krn and Krnsko jezero (Bogatin and Mahavšček on the left, Lanževica on the right) on a path that gradually begins to descend. After a few minutes of descending, the path, which follows an old military causeway, leads to slopes partly covered with dwarf pines. A little further down, two paths branch off to the left, leading to Krn (Krn past Vrh nad Peski and over Batognica), and in both cases we continue straight ahead on the still descending path. Further on, the path is laid, and the path from Mali Šmohor joins us on the left. After a few minutes of easy walking, the path leads to mountain pasture Duplje, where at a crossroads we continue right in the direction of Lepena and the Doma pri Krnskih jezere (on the left Krnsko jezero and Krn). The path continues past the pasture, and then splits into two parts. Continue on the right path (the left path leads to Lepena and gives way to the Lodge at Krnsko jezero), which will take you within a few minutes to the aforementioned mountain lodge.
