Kupljenik - Gradišče pod Babjim zobom

Access to the starting point:
a) From the motorway Ljubljana - Jesenice, take the exit Lesce, then continue to Bled and on to Bohinj. When Bled ends, the road to Bohinjska Bela turns first to the right, approximately 1. 5 km further on, and at the top of the hill the road to Kupljenik turns left. Continue towards Kupljenik and follow the ascending asphalt road to the aforementioned settlement. In the settlement, although there are no houses, you will reach a left serpentine, in the middle of which a short road branches off to the right to a marked parking area.
b) First drive to Podbrdo and from there to Bohinjska Bistrica (by car-train or via Soriška mountain pasture). From Bohinjska Bistrica continue driving to Bled. Before you reach Bled, you will come to a crossroads where the road to the village Kupljenik branches off to the right (the branch from the main road is marked). Continue towards Kupljenik and follow the ascending asphalt road to the village. In the settlement, although there are no houses, you will reach a left serpentine, in the middle of which a short road branches off to the right to a marked parking area.

Path description:
From the marked parking lot, continue along the worse road in the direction of the cave under Babji zob and Babje zub. The road first leads us along the edge of the pasture, from where we have a nice view that reaches all the way to the highest peaks of Karawanks, and then after a left turn the path turns into the forest. The wide cart track turns sharp right at the nearby water supply and then climbs steeply to the right. A little higher up, the marked path (track) to Babji zob turns left, and we continue to the right, on a slightly narrower track leading to the cave below Babji zob (at the crossroads there are only signs for Babji zob).
After a short climb we arrive at the next, this time well-marked, crossroads, where another of the paths to Babji zob branches off to the left, and we continue straight ahead and follow the marked path towards the cave below Babji zob to a larger gully, with cairns along the edge.
Leave the marked path at the cairns and continue right along a less obvious path that passes the cairns on the left. The path continues along an undistinguished valley, and in the upper part of the path we continue slightly to the left and climb a small ridge, which we follow to the right, and after a minute or two of further walking we climb to the top of Gradišče.
Description and pictures refer to the situation in 2017 (February).
