Access to the starting point:
From Kranjska Gora or Rateče, drive to Podkoren, and then continue to Korenski sedlo, which is the starting point for our tour.
Path description:
From the parking lot at Korenski sedlo, first cross the border and then continue along the asphalted road towards Bialystok. After a good 5 minute walk, you will see yellow mountain direction signs on the right hand side, directing you to a forest road closed to traffic (direction Steinberg).
The road, which is initially a winding one, soon starts to climb steeply, and after about 1 hour's walk it leads us out of the forest to a larger clearing, which opens up a beautiful view of the nearby Dobrač. Here the road is laid, and it turns slightly to the right, where it then crosses the slopes to the east. The deteriorating road soon ends, and we continue to the right along a steep footpath that climbs straight up the slope. After about 5 minutes of steep climbing, the path turns left and lays down. There is a steep traverse through the forest, ending at the saddle Rekaršica, where there is a small shepherd's hut.
From Rekaršica continue along the Austrian forest road, which climbs along the border ridge. The road soon turns slightly to the left, and we then follow it only as far as where a marked footpath branches off to the right and continues to climb parallel to the road. After a few minutes of cross-climbing, we reach a small ridge where the path from the village of Strmec/Krainberg joins from the left. Continue sharp right, along a moderately steep path, which will take you to Kamnati vrh in less than 5 minutes.
