Bukovnik - Lanež (Hojnikova pot)

Access to the starting point:
Take the road to Luce (to get here from Mozirje or via Kranjski rak) and follow the road towards the Logar valley, but only as far as the village of Solčava, where you turn right towards Podolševa and Črna na Koroškem. After a while the road ascends and leads to a crossroads, where you turn right in the direction of Črna. Higher up, the road leads to a crossroads at the mountain pass Spodnje Sleme. Here turn right in the direction of Koča na Grohatu and Bukovnik. Soon you will come to the next crossroads, where the forest road to Grohata, closed to traffic, branches off to the left (straight ahead). Park here in one of the small parking lots along the road.

Path description:
From the parking lot, take the upper left-hand road, which crosses the barrier after only a few dozen metres. Just a little further on, you will reach a point where a footpath branches off to the left uphill. The path climbs slightly at first and then crosses the slopes to the south, mostly in a gentle ascent. During the crossing, you cross a number of ravines and some steeper slopes. In some places, there is even a wooden bridge to help us. After a good half an hour's walk, you emerge from the forest onto a forest road. It's just a few steps of a steep climb to Hut na Grohatu.
At the hut, head straight up the slope towards the forest. Look for the trailhead marker on a tree and climb over a pasture fence onto the trail, which runs uphill to the left. Follow this relatively easy-to-follow path through the forest to a small saddle at about 1600 m. At the saddle, turn right and follow the increasingly less visible path to start the ascent below the wall of Lanež. The path goes steeply upwards in some places in the keys and leads us under the most difficult part - the grapple. Here you should put on your helmet, as the gully is loaded with rubble.
The ascent up the rubble gully is quite difficult (grade 1 places), helped by the remnants of the formerly protected path (wedges and crampons). At the exit of the gully we have some very steep climbing on grass, from where it is only a few steps to the top of Lanež.
The descent is even more difficult, so I recommend descending the newly surfaced path over Durce!
