Ljubelj - Roblekov dom na Begunjščici (via Zelenica)

Access to the starting point:
From the Ljubljana - Jesenice motorway, take the Ljubelj exit and follow the road to the border crossing. Just a few metres before the border crossing, the signs for Zelenica direct us to the left and after a few 10 metres of further driving, the road leads to a parking lot under the Zelenica ski centre.

Path description:
From the parking lot, follow the footpath towards Zelenica, Vertatscha and Stol. The dirt track, which runs along the left side of the ski slope, leads us after about 15 minutes of moderate ascent through the forest to the aforementioned slope along which we then climb. The path, which offers beautiful views of the extensive scree Begunjščica on the left and the ridge Ljubeljščica on the right, then leads us in a gentle ascent to the hut at Vrtača. From the hut, continue straight along the marked path, which slowly turns slightly to the left and, after a short cross-climb, leads us to lane of dwarf pines. The path then climbs more steeply for a short time and then leads us to cart track (the transport-rescue road), which we then follow in a moderate climb to the mountain home at Zelenica.

Walking on the ski slope is forbidden when the ski slope is open. Then use the winter route, which follows the transport-rescue road.
From the house, turn left in the direction of Begunjščica and Roblek's house, following the path which leads through lane of a forest and dwarf pines to the bottom of the scree of Begunjščica. On the other side of the scree, over which a well-worn path leads, you come to lane of dwarf pines. Here we start to climb steeply along a path which offers beautiful views of the surrounding peaks. At the top of the climb, which takes about 20 minutes, you reach a distinct side ridge Begunjščica. The trail then crosses relatively steep slopes, after which, after a short descent, you reach the extensive scree of the Smokuški avalanche. This is followed by crossing the aforementioned scree and then the route resumes its steep slopes. This is followed by a cross-climb on slopes partly covered with dwarf pines. At this point, a short, slightly more difficult passage is encountered, which is helped by a steel cable, which comes into its own when the path is damp and wet. Occasionally a little steeper, the path then leads to the main ridge Begunjščica, with increasingly beautiful views, where we encounter another dry, barely-needed steel cable. A few steps of descent follow and the path leads us to a crossroads where we continue right down towards Roblek's home. After a short descent, the path quickly becomes lane of dwarf pines, which is replaced by a sparse forest lower down. When you emerge from the forest, you can see Roblek's home ahead of you, which can be reached in a few steps.
