Access to the starting point:
a) Leave the Gorenjska motorway at exit Jesenice West (Hrušica) and continue driving towards Kranjska Gora. When you arrive in the Martuljek Forest, after the bridge over the Sava Dolinka, turn left into the marked parking area, where you park.
b) Take the Kranjska Gora, then continue driving towards Jesenice. When you arrive in the Martuljek Forest, and before the bridge over the Sava Dolinka, turn right into the marked parking lot, where the route described above begins.
Path description:
From the parking lot, walk to the cycle path and then follow it to the right in the route Kranjska Gora. You will quickly reach the first crossroads, where the path to Martuljka Falls continues to the left, and another path joins from the main road on the right. Continue straight ahead on the cycle path in the direction of Kranjska Gora, and follow it to the next crossroads, a few minutes away, where you turn left in the direction of the log cabin at Ingot.
The way forward leads along a climbing macadam road, which is converted into a floodlit toboggan run in winter. Higher up, at a height of about 900 m, a road branches off to the left towards the aforementioned log cabin, and we continue straight ahead and follow the road for a few minutes until it ends. From the end of the road, we continue along the path that goes into the forest and a little later descends quite steeply into Tofov graben. On the other side of the torrent, the path climbs again a little and then joins another forest road. Follow this road downhill a little and then reach a crossroads where an unmarked trail to Kurji vrh branches off to the left and a trail to Log descends to the right.
Continue straight ahead on the road, which continues to descend gently, only occasionally climbing slightly. After the forage, which is visible on the left, the road descends more steeply and leads to a crossroads, where you continue to the hard right (straight ahead to Rogarjev graben). Then descend through the village of Ivan Krivec, and when you reach the main road Kranjska Gora - Vršič, cross it carefully, then continue left to the nearby Jasna lake.
