Grahovše - Veliki Javornik (Ženiklovec) (via Rekar)

Access to the starting point:
From the Ljubljana - Jesenice motorway, take the Ljubelj exit (Tržič) and then continue towards Ljubelj. Just before the petrol station in Bistrica pri Tržiču, leave the main road and turn right towards Tržiča. Continue through Tržič in the direction of Dovžanove gorge, then turn right at the end of the town in the direction of Lom pod Storžičem and Grahovš. When you arrive in Grahovše, follow the road to the nearby quarry, where you park.

Path description:
From the starting point continue along the road, when the road branches off to the right towards the hamlet Slaparska vas, continue slightly left and you will quickly reach a crossroads in the middle of which there are several direction signs.

Continue left in the direction of mountain pasture Javornik, Stegovnik, mountain pasture Konjščica, Bela peč and the Rot toboggan run (slightly to the right Dom pod Storžičem) and quickly climb up to the ŠD Lom sports ground, from where you will have a nice view towards Storžič. Just a little further on, the road passes into the forest and leads us past a sign to a small crossroads from which we continue to the right in the direction of the footpath and the tourist farm Rekar. There are a few minutes of cross-country climbing through the forest, and then we emerge from the forest and reach the Rekar Tourist Farm with beautiful views of the surrounding area.

Continue through the courtyard, following the signs, and after the chicken coop, the path leads you along a small torrential gully. A little further on, the path turns left and becomes steeper, but quickly joins the grassy cart track, which takes us back into the forest. When you reach another cart track in the forest, follow it to the right, and after a few steps go straight on to the marked path, which ascends to the nearby macadam road, where the path joins us from the left, passing the Tič homestead. Follow the road to the right, and at a small crossroads go straight ahead.

At the part called Nad kotlom (Above the cauldron), a path branches off to the right towards Dom pod Storžič (Home under Storžič), and we continue along the road, which takes us a few minutes further to the next marked crossroads, where another path joins from the right from Dom pod Storžičem (Home under Storžič).

The road then passes Gaberčev rovt on the left, and at the left turn we leave it and continue straight on the marked path, which gradually starts to climb steeper. The rather steep path crosses a grazing fence higher up, behind which it lays down and leads to a crossroads where the path continues sharp right towards mountain pasture Javornik (straight ahead and then to the left the cottage at Zdravc and Bela peč, straight ahead and then to the right mountain pasture Vetrh).

Continue towards mountain pasture Javornik and climb through the increasingly sparse forest to the nearby mountain pasture Javornik, which offers a fine view towards Storžič.
From mountain pasture continue straight ahead (Stegovnik on the left, Storžič, Kanonir and Dom pod Storžičem on the right) along a moderately steep grassy slope, where at first you can still follow the path, but from mountain pasture onwards it is no longer marked, and it turns into an easier trackless path higher up. When the track ends, we continue along a grassy slope, which rather resembles a ski slope. This "path", from which we can enjoy ever more beautiful views, is followed all the way to the registration box at Veliki Javornik or Ženiklovac, which is reached after a climb of less than 30 minutes from mountain pasture Javornik.
Grahovše - Rekar 0:50, Rekar - mountain pasture Javornik 1:25, mountain pasture Javornik - Ženiklovec 0:30.
