Koča pri Savici - Rušnata glava

Access to the starting point:
From the Ljubljana - Jesenice motorway, take the Lesce exit and follow the road towards Bled and on to Bohinjska Bistrica. Continue driving towards Bohinjsko jezero (Ribčev laz), at which you will come to a crossroads, where you will continue straight along the left (south) side of the lake in the direction of Ukanec and the Savica waterfall. Follow this increasingly narrow road to the large parking lot at the Savica cottage. There is a charge for parking.

Path description:
From the parking lot, follow the road that crosses the Savica River via a bridge. Continue along the path in the direction of the Triglav Lakes. The initially gentle path soon becomes steep and climbs up the southern lower slopes of Komarča. After a good half an hour's walk, the path becomes even steeper and leads us to technically difficult places. The path along the Komarča wall is beautifully laid out, but care is needed at every step to avoid slipping. In the more difficult places, the fixed safety gear are helpful to get to the top of the wall more safely. The steep climb, which takes about an hour, ends with a view down the valley to the parking lot where the car is parked. The steepness then eases, and the path leads us to the Black Lake in five minutes of easy walking.
At the beginning of the lake, the path to the right branches off at mountain pasture Viševnik and Pršivec, and we continue straight on along the right side of the lake. On the other side of the lake, the path leads to the next crossroads. Continue straight on towards the huts at Triglav Lakes (Komna on the left). The path continues to climb under the walls of Stador on the right and the Lopučnica forest on the left. After a while the path leads to a grassy clearing where the marked path turns right steeply upwards. After 15 minutes the steepness eases and after a further 15 minutes the path leads to the next crossroads, where it continues to the left (to the right mountain pasture Ovčarija, Dedno polje and Blato). There is a gentle climb up to a point where you can see the Double Lake in front of you. The path continues gently downhill to the lake and continues on the right-hand side. Here you come to a crossroads where you continue right up towards Tičarice (straight the hut at Triglav Lakes 5 minutes).
The path then crosses a short lane of forest, then climbs over scree to a slightly more difficult crossing. With the help of a ladder and a rope ladder, climb a rock step higher to the crossroads at Štapce.
Here, turn right towards mountain pasture Ovčarija (on the left Mala Tičarica). When the path starts to descend on the right side, look for the crossing between dwarf pines. Take this unmarked path, which is already quite overgrown, and follow it slightly to the left through dwarf pines. The path then soon leads to an overgrown summit. Savica - Double Lake 3:00, Double Lake - Rušnata glava 45 minutes.
