Access to the starting point:
From the Ljubljana - Jesenice motorway, take the Ljubelj (Tržič) exit, and then turn right into Tržič just before the petrol station at Bistrica near Tržič. Continue through Tržič in the direction of Dolžanove soteska, then in the village of Slap turn right up towards the villages of Lom pod Storžičem and Grahovše. Follow the signs for Dom pod Storžičem up the ascending road at the junctions, and we follow it to a large marked parking lot by the quarry in Grahovše.
Path description:
At the beginning of the parking lot, signs for Konjščica direct you left onto a narrower ascending road. The road soon climbs above the village and then, partly through the forest and partly with views of the ridge of the Kriška Gora mountains, leads to the farms of Frona and Uskovnik (Uskovc), where the road ends. Here we continue between the houses, along a path that goes into the forest and then climbs crosswise over the stream. A little higher up, we cross the aforementioned brok, and then the marked path turns left and leads us out of the forest to a hayfield called Kožuhovca. Here, we climb past a dilapidated wooden hut, above which we enter a steep forest road. Cross the road and continue your ascent in the direction of the Tič homestead. Just 10 m higher, the marked path from Tržič or Lom pod Storžičem to Konjščico (via Potarje) joins us from the left, and we continue straight ahead and in just over 10 minutes of further walking we reach the Strmc and Tič farms. Here we continue across the yard of the Tič farm, uphill, and continue along the road for a short time, then the signs direct us slightly left onto a marked footpath. If there is a lot of snow and the path is not gravelled, you can continue along the road, as the path above the pasture also returns to the road. Continue along the road through the forest to the next pasture, where the path from Pavšel Farm joins from the right. With beautiful views of the ridge of the Kriška Gora mountains, just a little higher than the above-mentioned crossroads, you reach a wooden log cabin where the path ends along the road (the area is called Vrše).
Here, continue slightly left along the initially slightly more overgrown path, which quickly leads to a wooden hut, Potarje 44. Continue uphill, through the forest, cross a forest road, then continue first right, then left, where the track climbs moderately for a short distance. Because of the many small forks, follow the markings carefully. Cross a small stream, then the path joins a track, and above a small clearing the path leads to a forest road. Follow the road to the left and walk along it for only a few metres, as the markings and direction sign then direct you to the right onto the ascending footpath. The path first climbs up the slope slightly to the right, then straight up, and turns left at a rocky avalanche, returning to the road at a higher level in the immediate vicinity of the "Na Boštu" lookout point (the lookout point is less than 5 minutes from the marked path). Just below the road, where part of the forest has recently been cut down, we have a view towards Tržič, Dobrča, Begunjščića and Košuta. When you get on the road, turn right and after about 10 minutes of further walking you will emerge from the forest at mountain pasture Spodnja Konjščica. Bypass the shepherd's hut on the mountain pasture on the left and continue along the marked path which climbs steeply to the upper edge of the mountain pasture. Here the path enters the wods and climbs steeply for a short distance before turning slightly to the left and gradually flattening out. Just a little further on, you come out of the forest, where you enter the pastures of the vast mountain pasture Zgornja Konjščica.
