Access to the starting point:
From the motorway Rupa - Rijeka / Rijeka or Zagreb - Rijeka / Rijeka, drive towards Rijeka, and from there follow the signs to Krk Island. When the motorway or, in the last part, the expressway ends, descend to the Krk Bridge. On the island of Krk, follow the signs for the islands of Cres and Lošinj and the ferry port of Valbiska. At the ferry port, take the ferry to Merag on the island of Cres (126 kuna - July 2020). On Cres, follow the signs for Mali Lošinj. In Osor, cross a small bridge to reach the island of Lošinj. We continue on the main road, and near Nerezine, a narrower road branches off to the right towards Halmac. Take the road mentioned above, which then climbs and becomes a dirt road. Follow the road to the last houses where there is a small parking area on the left side of the road.
Path description:
From the small parking lot, continue along the road past the last house, then the road turns into the woods and becomes a track. Follow the markings and the path continues along the fence, mostly to the north. Here the path is quite sloping and occasionally we get a view of the Osoršćica mountain range. Continue along the mostly sloping path and follow the signs for Tržić.
The path then climbs slightly a few times and then leads to a crossroads of several paths. To the right are two paths leading down into the valley towards the Lopari bivouac and the town of Osor, while we continue on the far left, following the signs for Tržić and Osoršćica. The path then soon leads along a stone fence to the abandoned village of Tržić, where you will see some ruins along the way. Continue straight ahead and the path will lead you to a marked crossroads where the path from Osor joins from the right.
Continue slightly to the left and follow the signs for the mountain lodge and the top of Televrina. From the crossroads, a relatively gentle path runs westwards and after about 15 minutes leads to the next marked crossroads.
To the right leads a slightly longer path past the mountain huts, and we continue to the left where we are directed by the marker for the summit of Televrina. From the crossroads, the path runs mostly through low forest and starts to climb a shade steeper. A little higher we come out of the forest on a slope overgrown with bushes from where we also start to get a nice view towards the sea and the town of Osor. The path then climbs through the lane of a forest, and then leads to less and less vegetated slopes with a very nice view of the surroundings. Here the path turns slightly to the left and climbs quite steeply up the slope. This path then leads to the registration box.
From the registration box there is only a short climb to a crossroads where the macadam road joins.
To the left the road leads to the transmitter, to the right the road leads slightly downhill towards the mountain lodge and further down the valley towards Osor, and we cross the road and continue on the footpath towards the top of Televrino.
From the crossroads, we climb up a scenic slope partly covered with low bushes. The path then turns slightly to the left and runs along a broad ridge towards the nondescript peak of Kalek, on which there is also a larger cairn. From the summit we continue southwards and the terrain becomes slightly more overgrown, but soon the path leads us into a low forest where there is a marked crossroads.
The path to the right leads down towards Vela jama, and we continue along the ridge towards the top of Televrino. The path continues along the ridge and crosses a few more strips of low forest. Later, the ridge is retreated to the right and the path leads to a short protected path called "Slovenčica". The sheltered path is very short and not too difficult. The path then leads us back to the ridge which we then follow all the way to the top of Televrino.
In the summer months it is very hot on the trail, so it is advisable to set off very early and to take plenty of drinks with you.
