Divje jezero - Koča na Hleviški planini (via Strug)

Access to the starting point:
a) First drive to Logatec, then continue driving towards Idrija. When the most winding part of the road towards Idrija ends, you will reach the hamlet of Podroteja, where you leave the main road and continue driving to the left in the direction of Divje jezero and Idrijska Bela. Follow the road for another 100 m, then park in the parking lot next to the information boards for the nearby Divje jezero.
b) From Most na Soči or Podbrdo, drive to Bača near Modre, then continue towards Idrija and on to Logatec. At the end of Idrija, at the hamlet of Podroteja, leave the main road and turn right in the direction of Divje jezero and Idrijska Bela. Follow the road for another 100 m, then park in the parking lot next to the information signs for the nearby Divje jezero.

Path description:
From the parking lot at Divje jezero we continue along the road, we walk along it for only a few 10 m, and then the signs for the path by the Raka direct us to the right to the footbridge, over which we walk to the other side of the Idrijka. On the other side of the Idrijka you reach a footpath, and we follow it to the left (Idrija on the right). We continue along the gently sloping path, which continues along the canal through which the water flows. The canal was built to serve the needs of a mine pump. The canal ends at the dam, which is reached after a few minutes, and we continue along a wide path that continues along the Idrijca River. We continue along a rather steep slope, but as the path is wide enough it does not cause us any problems on land. A little further on, we arrive at a marked crossroads, where we leave the marked path and continue our ascent to the right in the direction of the Struga peak.
The path ahead climbs steeply at first, then turns to the right, where it continues to climb steeply to the right. Here, due to forestry work, the path is more difficult to follow in several places, but it runs in roughly the same direction all the time, so there are no major problems with orientation. Higher up, we reach the end of the forest road, and we continue along it. The trail continues above Padarjevo Grapa, and leads past the pothole behind Pšenko, after which we quickly reach a crossroads where we join the asphalt road. Follow the road to the left, and soon a path branches off to the right to the nearby Taborniški koča na Pšenku. We continue on the asphalt road, which soon leads us to Čekovnik, where we arrive at the next crossroads. Here we turn right in the direction of the Hut on Hleviše and continue our ascent along a moderately steep macadam road. The road, along which you can see some old faded markings, leads you past some water tanks, and then you leave the road and continue your ascent slightly to the left along a less well-marked path. Soon we are back on the road, only to reach it at a marked crossroads where there are several direction signs.
Here continue left in the direction Hleviška planina (Idrija to the right, Idrija straight ahead via Kodrov rovt) and continue along the road, which is closed to public traffic. Follow this road, which soon leads out of the forest, all the way to Koča na Hleviški planini, which is reached after a further 5 minutes of walking.
