Access to the starting point:
From the motorway Ljubljana - Jesenice take the exit Lipce and turn right towards Jesenice. At the first traffic lights (Javornik) turn right in the route Lj. At the second traffic-lighted junction turn left and go under the railway underpass, and at the next smaller junction turn right towards Koroška Bela. Drive into a village in the NE direction, where you can park in a suitable place (e. g. a block of flats near the fire station). You can continue driving.
Path description:
(On foot or by car) find the crossroads in the centre of the village, where the church memorial is located. From here, follow the main road through the village, which makes a slight incline northwards. After about 100 m, cross the bridge over the Bela stream on the right, where you can see the first markings in the vicinity (Stranska cesta). Continue on foot along the asphalt road between two houses (the appearance of a courtyard), which turns right here.
After a short time, before it is laid, and before we see the markings on the trees and the remains of the old "valvasor" sign, we turn off the road onto logging trail on our left. Logging trail, with a small stream running along it, quickly leads to a crossroads, where you continue straight on following the markings. The path leads us past a small spring on the left, uphill to the east, and from here on it climbs only occasionally. Only after about 10 minutes, when it turns left and loses the cart track look, does it become steeper. When the steepness subsides, rejoin the cart track and turn right onto an unmarked, but more used and well-trodden shortcut, which after a few metres turns left, uphill, through the coppice. The path heads eastwards and, higher up, leads again to logging trail, which leads into the forest. Follow it, or the many shortcuts on the right-hand side of the marked path, for some time. When the path starts to look like a forest road, cross the Sevnik stream on the flat. Keep to the widest path. Soon you will reach a crossroads in front of a forest clearing, where you will see the inscription "valvasor" on a tree on the left and an older sign "Ajdna archaeological site" on the right. Turn right into the forest, onto a less visible and marked, partly overgrown path that leads out of the forest through the clearing. Here it disappears a little, and over the slope, to make it easier to follow, we walk more or less at the same height. The path crosses cart track and descends only slightly. It is followed by a clearing where, among the fallen trees, it can be seen, with a little attention, that the path continues in the same direction, at the same height. It descends and ascends only a few metres at a time. Cross a small stream and after a few minutes turn left, slightly downhill, under the north face of Ajdna. The path then ascends to a crossroads at a bench just below the wall. Turn right here, where you will quickly come across a set of steps which will take you up the steep slope towards the summit. Once on the summit ridge, bear left. After a few 10 m, you will come across an archaeological site similar to a small settlement, through and behind which the path continues towards the top of Ajdna. Notice the ropes protecting the climbing route and turn right to the lookout with the entry book.
