Access to the starting point:
From Kranjska Gora drive towards Bovec or vice versa, but only as far as Mihov dom na Vršiču, where you park (the parking lot is located between the 4th and 5th serpentine).
Path description:
From the parking lot, continue along the asphalted road, and after a short 10-step walk, you will reach Mihov's home on Vršič. The road bypasses the home on the left, and we continue along it to the 8th serpentine (you can also take shortcuts, but these have been completely overgrown in recent years). Just a few steps after the 8th serpentine, we will notice the markings for Russian chapel, which direct us left to the ascending stairs. After a short climb up these stairs, you will reach Russian chapel, which is dedicated to the Russian prisoners of war who also built the Vršiška, or nowadays the Russian Road.
