Dolina Krma - Rž

Access to the starting point:
Leave the Gorenjska motorway at the Hrušica exit and follow the road towards Kranjska Gora. Just before the village of Dovje, the road branches off to the left and leads to Mojstrana (Vrata, Kot and Krma). Follow the road in the direction of the village of Radovna and the valleys of Krma and Kot. The relatively steep road then takes us past the TNP signboard, after which the road soon lays down and leads us to a crossroads where the macadam road to the valley of Kot branches off to the right. Continue straight ahead on the road, which begins to descend. In the middle of the descent, the road to the Krma valley branches off to the right (straight ahead Radovna). A little further on, you come to the next crossroads, where you continue to the right in the direction of Krma. The macadam road then leads to Kovinarska hut, and we follow it further. Occasionally, a slightly worse road then leads us to the parking lot in front of the gate.

Path description:
From the parking lot, pass the ramp and continue along the forest road, which is closed to public traffic. The minor road continues for a while on extensive gravel, then turns slightly to the right and enters the forest, where it turns into a rocky cart track. The path climbs gently through the forest for some time, and then, after crossing a slightly larger torrent, it begins to climb steeply through the dense forest. Higher up, the path leaves the forest into lane of dwarf pines, mixed with scrub, and climbs over the above-mentioned slope on a scree slope. At an altitude of about 1400 m the path is laid and after a further 10 steps leads to a beautiful grassy plain called Vrtača.
On the other side of the plain, the wide path starts to climb again and after about 20 minutes of further walking leads us to Malo polje, where it turns to the right and leads us to a less conspicuous crossroads. Continue along the well-traced path (left Vodnikov dom via Bohinjska vratca), which climbs gently for some time, then leads to a water trough. Next, the path splits into two parts, and we continue straight on the marked path, which leads us over initially grassy, then slightly vegetated slopes to the shepherd's hut at mountain pasture Zgornja Krma.
Just a few minutes above mountain pasture the path leads us to a crossroads at a small well, where we continue to the right in the direction of Kredarica and Stanič's home (left Planika over Kurica). After a few minutes of further walking, the gently sloping path leads us to the next crossroads, where we continue straight on in the direction of Stanič's home (left Kredarica - the path over Kalvarija). Continue almost horizontally along the path, which crosses a belt of sparse larch forest, then passes out of the forest onto the viewing slopes and turns slightly to the left. Continue climbing moderately up the slopes between Pungrt and Apnenica. Higher up, the path enters the rocky world of the western slopes of Rjavina and turns sharp left below Dovška vratca. Continue gently to moderately up the slopes of Rži (a mountain with a natural window that is clearly visible from the path), where the path from Konjski sedlo joins from the left. Continue to the right and the path quickly leads to the next crossroads, where the path to Rjavina - the ridge path - branches off to the right. Continue straight in the direction of Stanič's home, following the path which starts to descend and leads us in a few minutes of descent to the Valentina Stanič Mountain Home under Triglav.
Continue in the direction of Kredarica, along a path which climbs steeply under the Rži scree and then cross-climbs over the aforementioned scree. In the upper part of the scree, you will see a less well-trodden path (often barely visible due to avalanches), which leaves the marked path towards Kredarica. The path, which branches off the marked path to the left, after a short steep climb over the scree and higher up a small ravine, leads to the ridge Rži. Here, continue left and follow the "trail" along and sometimes along the ridge to the top of Rži.
In the upper part, the cairns helps us to find the passages, but in the lower part they are often fallen down due to avalanches.
