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. In Begunje (just after the crossroads where the road to Žirovnica turns left), turn left in the direction of the Krpin Recreation Centre (straight ahead Draga and Tržič). Park in the large parking lot next to the Krpin Recreation Centre.
Path description:
From the parking lot, continue along the asphalted road, which crosses the Blatnica stream via a small bridge and then turns into a macadam road. Follow the road further and it soon leads to a marked crossroads, where you continue along the left-hand road in the direction of St Peter's (to the right St Peter's is a longer path and the Kališča pass). The road, which is getting worse, then quickly leads to the next crossroads, where you continue to the right to cart track (marked). Cart track then starts to climb steeply and leads us higher out of the forest onto the grassy slopes over which we climb in a few minutes to the church from which we get a nice view.
From the church we continue past the eponymous airstrip along the path which soon enters the forest and then continues in a gentle ascent all the way to Sankaška koča.
From the Sankaška hut, continue in the direction of Poljška mountain pasture and Završnica along the path which goes into the forest and climbs steeply for a short time. The steepness then eases and the path leads us after a short descent to two small huts between which stands a wooden cross.
Continue on the marked path, which returns to the forest and gradually starts to climb steeper and steeper. At the hunting lodge, the steepness eases and we continue along the path, which runs along the edge of a broad ridge. Just a little further on, the path turns right, crosses cart track (possibility of continuing on cart track) and a small clearing, and then starts climbing up the rather ruined cart track. Higher up, cart track widens (joining cart track, which we have recently crossed) and leads to a forest road, which we only cross.
Continue in the direction of Poljška mountain pasture on cart track, which starts to descend and after a few minutes of descent leads us to the Kališča pass, where the "direct route" from Krpino (descent possible) joins us from the right.
From the prevala, where you briefly rejoin the forest road, continue slightly right along the marked footpath in the direction of Roblek's home (sharp right Krpin). Continue climbing along cart track, which widens higher up into an initially less good macadam road. Follow this road, on which the steepness eases, all the way to Tomč's hut on Poljška mountain pasture.

Discussion about the trail Begunje - Tomčeva koča na Poljški planini (via sveti Peter)

Ravno to pot sem jaz nekaj dni nazaj pretekel. Poročilo: http://bojanambrozic.spaces.live.com/blog/cns!ACD975034630F7FE!8092.entry Sicer je malce ledeno od preuhojenosti nad Sankaško koči. Drugače pa je pot lahka in zelo primerna za zimsko turo. Velja še omeniti, da je poleti priljubljen del gorskih kolesarjev, ki so običajno na Tomčevo kočo vzpnejo z Drage. Spust pa opravijo po delu te poti (do križišča) s tem da se na križišču ne usmerijo na Sankaško kočo, ampak se spustijo v dolino Završnice.

Pozdravljeni! Zanima me, če je tura glede na novo zapadel sneg primerna za obisk konec tedna in seveda, če je koča odprta ?

Med prevalom Kališča in Tomčevo kočo se lahko zgodi, da boš gazil v cel sneg. Več o odprtosti koč na tem območju pa si lahko prebereš tukaj http://www.begunje.si/gost.html
