Podbrdo - Planina Za Črno goro (via Vrh Bače)

Access to the starting point:
a) First drive to Škofja Loka, then continue to Železniki and Tolmin. When you arrive in Podbrdo, pay attention, because just after the church you will turn right onto a narrow local road that starts to climb along the river Bača. Park in a suitable place on the roadside, or in a small parking lot next to the local cemetery.
b) From the road Idrija - Most na Soči, turn right at Bača pri Modreju, or left if you are coming from the route of Posočje, and continue towards Podbrdo. At the end of Podbrdo, pay attention, because just before the church of St. Nicholas you will turn left onto a narrow local road, which begins to climb along the river Bača. Park in a suitable place on the roadside, or in a small parking lot next to the local cemetery.

Path description:
From the starting point, continue along the initially still asphalted road, from which a marked footpath soon branches off sharply to the left towards Vrhu Bače. Continue past an old residential house, gradually turning into the forest. Through the forest, we climb along a relatively well-marked and partly also quite steep mountain path, which is higher and leads us out of the forest to a short scenic slope, over which we walk to the nearby church of St Lenart.
At the church, you enter a narrow road, which leads you quickly to the village of Bača near Podbrdo. Through the small and picturesque village, follow the signs and they will lead you to cart track, which begins to climb through the forest. The narrower and at first slightly overgrown cart track, however, joins the old mulatier after a few minutes. Follow the wide mulatier to the right, and after a few minutes it leads to a small crossroads, where you continue along the upper left path in the direction of Vrh Bače (slightly to the right Petrovo Brdo).
We continue to climb for some time on the well-preserved and quite wide mule track, which we leave for a short time higher up, as the path leads us along a marked shortcut. Higher up, the mule track path is stopped a few times by some fallen trees, and we then approach the cliffs of Šance Peak, where we leave the mule track. Next, we climb up a rather steep path, which takes us 5 minutes of further walking to reach the hunting hut on Vrhu Bače.
From the hunting lodge, continue straight ahead (sharp right Petrovo Brdo) and climb to the Vrh Bače preval, where there is a marked crossroads. Here continue left in the direction Črna prst (slightly right along the road Soriška planina, right into the bank of Šavnik and Cairn) and start climbing crosswise through the forest. When the path almost reaches the summit of Šanc, it starts to descend towards a small saddle. The path leads us first past the GRS hut and then to the aforementioned saddle. The way forward begins first to climb moderately, then gradually leads us to the ridge Koble, where it is further erected upright. This is followed by a few minutes of steep ascent along the path, which runs along the edge of the occasionally exposed ridge. Higher up, the path lays down, turns slightly to the right and leads us to the less distinct summit of Kobla. From Kobla there is a slight descent, and then the path continues along a less steep ridge towards the neighbouring Krevlo. Towards the top of Krevla, a marked path in the direction of "Kobla žig" branches off a little further to the left, and we continue straight ahead, passing the summit on the right, which is only a short 10-step walk away.
On the other side of Krevla, the path starts to descend again, this time to the nearby ski resort. When you reach the edge of the ski slope, you will see the signs for Črna prst pointing down to the left. There is some more downhill, and then you reach the small swamp Na Kalu, where there is also a less obvious crossroads. Continue along the right path (to the left, via a small saddle, leads an old shepherd's path which crosses the southern slopes of the lower Bohinj Mountains, only this will join the path from Podbrdo to Črna prst), which continues to descend gently and leads us slightly lower to a marked crossroads. At the crossroads, continue on the lower right path (the upper left path leads to Črna prst), which descends through the forest for a short distance, then turns to the right and leads out of the forest to mountain pasture Za Črna gora.
