Access to the starting point:
First we drive to Škofja Loka, then continue driving towards Železniki. In Železniki, turn right towards Dražgoše, and follow the main road to the village of Rudno, where signs for Bohinjska Bistrica direct you to a narrower road that climbs through the village. After the village the road widens, losing its asphalt surface. Continue along a relatively nice and ascending dirt road, which you follow for about 10 km, or until you reach a point where the signs for Ratitovec direct you to the left onto a slightly narrower dirt road. Continue to the next crossroads, where you can park at a suitable place (there is a signpost for Ratitovec and a Natura 2000 information board at the starting point).
Path description:
From the junction where you parked, take the road towards Ratitovec and follow it a few steps to a ramp that prevents you from continuing. The road continues to climb gently, passing the Ledina bog on Jelovica on the right. A little further on, the road is completely laid out, and the markings direct us to the right to the folded cart track, which crosses the wider cart track just a little further on. Continue in the direction of Ratitovec and follow the gently sloping tractor logging trail, which leads us higher up to an undistinguished ridge where the path turns quite to the right. A few minutes of steeper walking follows, and then the path leads to a forest road leading from Prtovč towards the Mrzla dolina na Jelovici. Cross the road and continue the ascent along the wide cart track, which soon climbs very steeply, then lays down and leads us to a marked crossroads within a few minutes of further walking.
Continue right in the direction of mountain pasture Klom (left Kosmati vrh) and follow the path, or cart track, which crosses the newly built road a few times higher up, leading to mountain pasture Klom. As there are several forks due to the new road, you have to be careful at all forks not to miss the marked path. The path is laid higher up, and then in a short descent leads to mountain pasture Klom, on which stands a shepherd's hut.
From mountain pasture, continue on the marked path, which climbs moderately at first, then turns to the left and gradually descends. Continue for a short distance along the wide stone cart track, then immediately after crossing a pasture fence, continue downhill to the right, where you will quickly reach an old military bunker. There is a short, folded climb and the path leads to a marked crossroads where you continue straight on in the direction Gladki vrh (left down cirque Razor, right down mountain pasture Pečana. The trail splits into two parts just after the crossroads, and we continue along the left marked trail (the right one is unmarked and more sloping), which begins to climb steeply along the north-east ridge of Gladki vrh. The way forward leads us quickly out of the forest, and the forest leads us to Gladki vrh, with increasingly beautiful views.

Zelo lep vzpon. Na prvi četrtini bi lahko bilo malo manj kolovoza.
