Bohinjsko sedlo - Erbelc

Access to the starting point:
a) From the motorway Ljubljana - Jesenica take the exit Lesce and follow the road towards Bled and on to Bohinjska Bistrica. From Bohinjska Bistrica turn left towards Tolmin and Soriška mountain pasture. Follow this road to a large parking lot near the Soriška ski centre mountain pasture.
b) From Železniki, drive towards Podbrdo or vice versa, but only until you reach the point where the signs for Soriška planina direct you to the ascending road. Follow this road to the large parking lot at the foot of the Soriška ski slope mountain pasture.

Path description:
From the parking lot under the Soriška planina ski centre, continue along the asphalt road towards Železniki and Podbrdo. Soon, i. e. after about 50 m, we will notice signs for Ratitovec on the left side of the road, which direct us to a marked footpath, which initially descends cart track, then turns left and turns into a slightly more difficult to follow path. The path ahead takes you across a larger grassy clearing, crosses lane of woodland beyond, and then leads to another clearing where you step onto a wide cart track. Follow Cart track to the right and walk along it to a nearby road, which is reached just at the bottom of a short tarmac section. Once on the road, first ascend and then gradually start descending. Lower down, in a small valley, we leave the road once more, as the signs direct us to the right, to a footpath which returns to the road after a few minutes, and we continue along it to the right, to a marked crossroads on the Mišji grund pass.
From the pass, continue along the road (left Ratitovec, straight down Spodnje and Zgornje Danje), which leads us westwards. Leave the marked path leading to the Soriška peč starting point at the point where the road turns slightly left and starts to descend gradually.
The road descends to the first left-hand bend, and we continue right from this bend to cart track, which then crosses the slopes to the left. Continue along the cart track to its end, where you turn right onto a traceable path which, in a minute or two, will take you up to the Erbelc lookout.
