end of road on Pokljuka - Tosc

Access to the starting point:
a) Leave the Gorenjska motorway at the exit for Lesce, then follow the signs for Bled and Pokljuka. Continue through Gorje and past the ski resort Zatrnik to Rudni Polje on Pokljuka, where there is a large pay parking lot and a military barracks and shooting range nearby. From here, continue straight along the macadam road, which leads us a little further to a crossroads, where we continue to the right (Uskovnica on the left). Follow this road to the former parking lot Za Ribnico, which is at the end of the road (there are mountain signs for mountain pasture Konjščico).
After the new parking at the end of the road is forbidden, so we park already at Rudne polje, which lengthens the route by about 40 minutes, but it is more convenient to choose the marked trail, which starts already at Rudne polje.
b) From Železniki or Podbrdo, take the road to Bohinjska Bistrica and then continue in the direction of Bled. Shortly after the Petrol station, which is located just after Bohinjska Bistrica, turn left in the direction of Pokljuka and Jereka. The road climbs steeply at first, then gradually flattens out behind Koriti, leading to a junction by the bus station, where you continue right in the direction of Pokljuka, Koprivnik and Jereka (straight ahead Srednja vas). Just after the crossroads we arrive at Jereka, and from the crossroads in front of the church we continue straight on towards Pokljuka (left Podjelje). After Jereka the road starts to climb steeply again, and higher up it levels off and continues along the Mrzle potok. When you join the road from Bled, go left and drive to Rudno Polje, where there is a large pay parking lot, and also a military barracks and a shooting range nearby. From here, continue straight along the macadam road, which leads us a little further to a crossroads, where we continue to the right (Uskovnica on the left). Follow this road to the former parking lot Za Ribnico, which is at the end of the road (there are mountain signs for mountain pasture Konjščico).
After the new parking at the end of the road is forbidden, so we park already at Rudne polje, which lengthens the route by about 40 minutes, but it is more convenient to choose the marked trail, which starts already at Rudne polje.

Path description:
From the former parking lot at the end of the road, follow the wide and initially ascending cart track towards mountain pasture of Konjščice. The cart track, which goes immediately into the dense forest, is quickly laid and after a few minutes of easy walking turns into a footpath which continues along the left bank of the Ribnica stream. When the path is quite close to the stream, it turns slightly to the right and climbs steeply. Higher up, the path lays down and leads out of the forest to the lower edge of the vast Konjščice River. Here the path turns slightly to the left, crosses a small stream and, after a few further steps, leads us to the cheese cottage at mountain pasture Konjščica.
From the cheese cottage, continue along a pleasant path which, after a few minutes of gentle ascent, leads to the upper edge of mountain pasture. Here the path goes into lane of dwarf pines and scrub and gradually starts to climb more steeply. In the upper part of the ascent towards Jezerce, the path from Rudno Polje joins us from the right, and we continue straight on the moderately steep path, which leads us within a few minutes of further walking to Jezerce, where the path is laid and turns to the left.
An easy walk follows to a signpost marking the central area of the TNP, and then the path starts to climb moderately along the torrent (initially a small spring). The path goes higher up to the right side of the torrent (as seen from the route of ascent) and then climbs crosswise to Studorski Prevala.
From the prevala, from where a beautiful view of the Bohinj side opens up, continue straight ahead (left Ablanca, right Veliki Draški vrh and sharp right Srenjski preval) along the path, which begins to descend and after a few steps turns to the right. There is a short descent, and then the path continues to cross, first the slopes below Veliki Draški vrh and later Tosc. When you reach the unpaved southern slopes of Tosc, you will come to a small crossroads where an unmarked trail branches off to the right to Tosc (the branch is marked).
Continue on the unmarked but well-traced path, which begins to climb steeply over the grassy slopes of Tosc. The increasingly steep path slowly turns slightly to the right, then turns sharply to the left and almost completely flattens out. After crossing a short steep slope, the path leads to less steep slopes, where it gradually starts to disappear. The less visible path then turns slightly to the right and starts to climb slightly steeper. After a few minutes of climbing, we reach the unmarked Little Tosc, which opens up a view of Tosc. A short descent follows and the path leads us past a large sinkhole, which we bypass on the right hand side, to the summit base of Tosc. The way forward climbs moderately over a pleasant grassy slope and after a few minutes of further walking leads us to the top of Tosc.
Orientation is difficult in the fog.
