Access to the starting point:
From the motorway Ljubljana - Jesenice take the exit Radovljica (from the Gorenjska side take the exit Lesce) and follow the road towards Begunj. At the end of Begunje village, turn right towards Tržič, and follow the road to a small crossroads where a macadam road joins from the right. Park in a suitable place at the junction.
The starting point can also be reached from the route of Tržič.

Path description:
From the starting point, cross the road carefully and then take the marked footpath leading to Dobrča (the start of the trail is not marked). The trail first climbs through dense forest, then lays down and crosses the slopes to the right. There is a short descent and the path leads to cart track, which is followed to the left. Cart track immediately starts to climb and we follow it at the forks in the route indicated by the signs. A little further on, the path from Slatna joins us from the right, and we continue straight on in the route Dobrča. The path continues to climb moderately to steeply through the forest, and we only occasionally cross a scenic slope. Higher up, we cross the forest road a few more times, and then join the slightly wider path leading from Hudega Grabno. Further on, we are still climbing through the forest, and the marked path crosses the forest road a few more times, leading to Koča na Dobrči. After a while the path turns slightly to the right and climbs a little steeper. After crossing a pasture fence, the trail leads out of the forest, from where it is only a few 10 steps to the mountain hut.
Near the Hut on Dobrča, the signs for the summit of Dobrča direct us to a forest road, which begins to descend gently northwards. After a short descent, you will see direction signs pointing to the right to Maria Elender Alm, with the huts on the right hand side. We continue up a grassy slope with a view, then the path turns into a sparse forest at first, but higher up it becomes more and more dense. As the slope subsides, two paths join from the right, and in both cases we continue straight ahead. The path ahead climbs steeper again and after a few minutes of further walking leads us to the top of Dobrča.
