Dom v Lepeni - Lanževica (via Bogatinsko sedlo)

Access to the starting point:
Between Trenta and Bovec, the road to Lepena branches off at the village of Soča. Follow this road, which is completely asphalted, to the parking area of the Dr. Klement Hugo House in Lepena.

Path description:
From the hut of Dr. Klement Hugo in Lepena, continue along the wide marked trail in the direction of Krnsko jezero. The wide and not too steep path splits into two parts after a few minutes of walking. The left one, which is a bit steeper, is normal, while the right one, which is flatter and a bit longer, is suitable for small children and the elderly. Both paths mostly climb through the forest to the top station of the cable car and cross a few times along the way.
From the upper station of the cargo cableway, continue along the same path, which climbs gently along a wide transport road, which quickly leads to the snow height measurement (every year in April). From here on, the road starts to descend and quickly leads past the turnoff for Velika Baba to the next crossroads, where you leave the road and continue left down the footpath, which leads you in a few minutes to Dom pri Krnskih jezerih (if you continue along the road you bypass the mountain lodge). Continue along the road until you reach the Dom pri Krnskih jezerih (if you continue along the road you bypass the mountain lodge).
From the house, continue straight ahead in the direction of Krn and Krnsko jezero along the gently sloping path, which is soon joined by a path that bypasses the mountain lodge. Continue past the shepherd's hut, past which you reach the next crossroads, where you turn left in the direction of Komna (straight ahead Krn and Krnsko jezero). A few 10 steps further on, another path from Krnsko jezero joins us from the right, and we continue along the gently sloping path, which continues along the edge of a pleasant valley. The way ahead takes us past the trail branch to Mali Šmohor (1939 m), which veers off our path to the right, and we continue on a slightly steeper path, which takes us past rare larch trees and through the dwarf pines belt. At the beginning of a levelling called Doliči, a waymarked trail branches off to the right towards Prehodci and further towards the spring of Tolmin. There is some ascent, and then we reach the valley Za Lepočami, where the old military barracks from the time between the two world wars stand or used to stand (today only ruins remain). Here the path from Prehodci or from the spring Tolmin joins us from the right, and we continue in the direction of Komna. The increasingly scenic route, which continues for some time climbing up and along the slopes of Velika Montura (1958 m), continues to lead us along the well-preserved mulatier. A few minutes of moderate ascent follows and the path leads to Bogatinsko sedlo, where the next marked crossroads are located. Again, continue along the left path (straight Koča pod Bogatinom, Dom na Komni, Bohinj. . . , right Bogatin, Mahavšček and Tolminski Kuk) in the direction of Lanževica, which is still about 1 hour's walk away. The way forward in the fog is slightly more difficult in terms of orientation, as it leads us along a wide gently sloping ridge, where it only occasionally climbs steeply. Further on, with fine views on the left, we pass the lesser-known Vrh nad Gracijo (1919 m). On the other side of this peak, the path from the Hut pod Bogatin via Lepe Komna joins us from the right. From here, there is a moderate climb of about 20 minutes and the path leads to the 2003 metre high summit of Lanževice.
