Valvasorjev dom pod Stolom - Žirovniška planina

Access to the starting point:
From the Ljubljana - Jesenice motorway, take the Lesce exit and follow the road towards Žirovnica and Jesenice. After a few km of driving, you will come to a crossroads where the road to Žirovnica and Moste turns right (from Jesenice, left). Just a few metres further, at the next crossroads, turn left into Moste (right into Žirovnica). Continue past the memorial to the fallen fighters, where the road starts to climb uphill under the railway line. At the top of the hill, turn right (at the Vila Karin sign) and we continue towards Završniškem jezero and Valvasor's home. The road then bends and leads to a crossroads where the road to Valvasor's home branches off to the left. Take the road mentioned above (straight ahead to the cottage at the source of the Završnice River), which begins to climb, first gently and then steeply, along a road that is sometimes quite rough (the steepest parts are asphalted). Higher up, the road leads to a slightly larger junction, where we continue left in the direction of Potoška planina (to the right of the Doslovška mountain pasture). The road then lays down and leads us a little further on to the next crossroads. This time continue slightly right in the direction of Valvasor's home (slightly left Ajdna and Potoška planina) and follow the steeper road all the way to the home. Park in one of the parking lots along the road near the mountain home, but parking in front of the home is only allowed for guests.
From Poljane (crossroads in front of the Završnice lake) to the Valvasor's home is 5 km.

Path description:
From Valvasor's House, turn right onto the footpath towards Stol. The path soon goes into the forest, where it climbs slightly and leads to a small crossroads, where we continue to the right. The path then leads out of the forest, where it crosses the slopes below Monštranca. Follow this gently sloping and partly scenic path, which crosses a short lane of forest a little further on, all the way to the mountain pasture of Žirovnica.
