Access to the starting point:
a) From Kranjska Gora, via the Vršič or Predel pass, drive to Bovec, where you park at the lower station of the circular cable car to Kanin (the cable car is located near the petrol station). Then buy a ticket and take the cable car to station D.

b) From the Primorska side, first drive into the valley of the Soča River and then pass through Tolmin and Kobarid to Bovec, where you park at the lower station of the circular cable car to Kanin (the cable car is located near the petrol station). Then buy a ticket and take the cable car to station D.

Path description:
At Station D, continue slightly left to the north-west (direction Visoki Kanin and Window to Prestreljenik, Prestreljenik to the right). At first, walk on relatively flat terrain, which is still part of the ski slope. The path here leads past some information boards and then signs direct you to the path towards Visoki Kanin and Window v Prestreljenik (slightly left Peter Skalar's House on Kanin).

The trail briefly passes over rocky terrain and then, in a slight ascent, crosses the scree and leads us to a crossroads.
Straight ahead the path leads to Visoki Kanin, and we head right up towards the Window in Prestreljenik. From the crossroads, the path climbs steeply up the scree and becomes slightly more difficult in the last part. The slope becomes steeper and there is a short steep climb with the help of a rope. Here an even more difficult path (ferrata) joins from the right, and then it is only a few steps walk to the window.


Descend either by the ascent route or by the ferrata, which joins a few metres before the window. If you go down the ferrata, you will also need a self-belaying kit.
