Access to the starting point:
Leave the Gorenjska motorway at the Hrušica exit and follow the road towards Kranjska Gora. Just before the village of Dovje, the road branches off to the left and leads to Mojstrana (Vrata, Kot and Krma). Follow the road in the direction of the Vrata valley and follow it to the large parking lot near the Aljaž's home.
Path description:
From the parking lot, continue along the macadam road, which after a 3-minute walk leads to the crossroads at Aljaževem dom. Continue straight ahead in the direction of Triglav, Luknja and Pogačnik's home (right Škrlatica) along the wide path that goes behind the chapel (on the right) and Aljaž's home (on the left) into the lane of a forest. A wide tourist-walking path leads us past the winter bivouac out of the forest, where we see the famous wedge (a monument dedicated to the fallen partisan mountaineers) in front of us. Continue straight ahead (left Tominškova cesta) along the path which returns to the forest and leads to the next crossroads, where you continue straight ahead (right Stenar, Pogačnikov dom). The path continues to climb along the torrent to a crossroads, where you turn left onto the path across the Prag (straight ahead Luknja and Plemenice) and, after a few steps downhill, cross the torrent. On the other side, the path quickly leads to a steep part of the trail, where we are helped by rungs. Using the fixed safety gear, the path quickly takes you up a step to a less demanding part of the route. We continue to climb with increasingly beautiful views along the path, which is occasionally surrounded by dwarf pines. The easy part of the trail soon becomes more difficult again, and we are helped by the ropes, which make walking safer. The most difficult part of the route on the way across the Prague follows. With the help of crampons and a rope ladder, we climb the 15 m high almost vertical chimney. The difficulties then slowly disappear and the Tominšek path joins from the left. Just a few steps further along the path we see a nice little spring where we can rest. The way forward soon leads us to the next crossroads, where we continue to the left in the direction of Staničev's home (Kredarica on the right). The way forward is through a karst world full of cracks and potholes (be careful). Higher up, the path crosses a shorter scree slope and then ascends to a plateau-like world where we can already see the home of Valentin Stanič in front of us, which is only a few 10 steps of easy walking away.
Continue in the direction of Kredarica on the path which climbs gently under the Rži scree and then crosses over the aforementioned scree. In the upper part of the scree, you will notice a less well-trodden path (often barely visible due to avalanches), which leaves the marked path towards Kredarica. The path, which branches off the marked path to the left, after a short steep climb over a scree slope and higher up a small ravine, leads to the Rži ridge. Here, continue left and follow the "path" along and, in places, along the ridge to the top.
In the upper part, cairns helps us find the passages, but in the lower part they are often destroyed by landslides.
Gate - Staničev dom 4:30, Staničev dom - Rž 45 minutes.

Prejšnjo soboto sem bil na Kredarici in je prišlo tudi veliko pohodnikov iz Staničevega doma do Kredarice in seveda potem še na Triglav... mogoče je kakšno snežišče, vendar je vsekakor prehodno brez zimske opreme oziroma se ga da obiti.
