Access to the starting point:
From the Jesenice - Kranjska Gora road, take the Mojstrana road, then follow the signs for Krma and Radovna. When Mojstrana ends, a dirt road soon turns off to the right towards the Mlačca gorge, and park a little further along the tennis court.
You can also park lower down in Mojstrana in the parking lot next to the ski slope or somewhere else in a suitable place, which will make the route a little longer.
Path description:
From the starting point, walk to the main road and then continue the ascent on the asphalt road. Shortly after the sign marking the start of the Triglav National Park, red mountain signs direct you left to cart track in the direction of Jerebikovec. Cart track, which we continue on, quickly turns into a steep footpath, which leads us along an unmarked valley to a lookout point with a bench, where we are joined on the left by an unmarked and even slightly steeper path leading over the slopes of Na tnalu.
From the bench, which offers a fine view in the direction of Kepa and its neighbouring peaks, continue along the marked path, which climbs steeply up the north-western slopes of Mežakla. Higher up, the slope becomes quite steep, so there is a risk of slipping in places, especially in wet weather. We climb steeply up to an altitude of about 1300 metres, and then the path is laid and leads us to the edge of the Mažakla plateau, where we leave the marked path at the NOB memorial and continue left on the trackless path towards Malemu vrh.
At first, the walk is gentle, but after a few 10 steps you start to climb steeply up the unmarked south-west ridge of Malý vrh. After a few minutes of pathless ascent, you reach Mali vrh, which offers some views towards the Karavanke Mountains.
