Erjavčeva koča na Vršiču - Sovna glava (on footpath)

Access to the starting point:
From Kranjska Gora take the road leading over the Vršič pass to Bovec or vice versa. Between the 22nd and 23rd serpentine of the Vršiška cesta you will reach the parking lot under Erjavčevo kočo, where you park.

Path description:
From the parking lot at Erjavčeva koča na Vršiču, follow the Kopiščarjeva trail in the direction of the Postman's Home and Prisojnik. The path is initially grassy and winding, then crosses a small torrent, where a small spring usually flows, and then climbs cross-cuttingly after the torrent. Continue along the marked path, which crosses an old road a little further on, and when you reach it for the second time, continue along it to the first serpentine on the right.
From the serpentine, continue straight on to the footpath, which continues to cross the slopes to the left, opening up a beautiful view of Ajdovská deklica and the surrounding mountains. After crossing a few small ravines, the path climbs steeply and leads to a marked crossroads, where you continue to the left (to the right, Poštarski dom na Vršiču).
There is a cross-climb towards the wall of Prisojnik, and before reaching the wall, the path branches off to the right towards the pass between Prisojnik and Sovno glava.
Continue along the right path (straight ahead Kopiščarjeva cesta na Prisojnik), which then climbs crosswise under the walls of Prisojnik. The slope becomes steeper and after a further 10 steps you reach a better-beaten path from the Vršič Pass.
From the smaller saddle, continue right towards Vršič (Razor and Prisojnik on the left) and climb to just below the Sovna glava peak, but to reach the summit itself you have to leave the marked path and walk a few steps to the grassy summit.

We can extend the trip to the following destinations: Planja, Prisank / Prisojnik, Razor
