Olipova planina - Planina Stamare

Access to the starting point:
From the Ljubljana - Jesenice motorway, take the Lesce exit and follow the road towards Žirovnica and Jesenice. After a few km of driving, you will come to a crossroads where the road to Žirovnica and Moste turns right (from Jesenice, left). Just a few metres further, at the next crossroads, turn left into Moste (right into Žirovnica). Continue past the memorial to the fallen fighters, where the road starts to climb uphill under the railway line. At the top of the hill, turn right (at the Vila Karin sign) and we continue towards Završniškem jezero and Valvasor's home. The road then bends and leads to a crossroads where the road to Valvasor's home branches off to the left. Take the road mentioned above (straight ahead to the cottage at the source of the Završnice River), which begins to climb, first gently and then steeply, along a road that is sometimes quite rough (the steepest parts are asphalted). Higher up, the road leads to a slightly larger junction, where you turn left in the direction of Potoška planina (to the right of the Doslovška mountain pasture). The road then lays down and leads us a little further on to the next crossroads, where the road to Valvasor's house branches off to the right, and we continue along the lower left road, which then continues for some time without any major changes in elevation. The road then leads us past the Ajdno trail junction and then starts to climb steeply on a sometimes quite bad road. The road then re-lays and leads us past Potoška planina to the Urbas well, near which there are a few small car parks. We continue on, and the road takes us over a few small junctions, always keeping to the one that is the roughest. The road then climbs steeply again and leads us a little higher to a larger car park, where we park.

Path description:
From the parking lot we continue along the deteriorating macadam road, which gradually turns into a wide cart track, which leads us past the trough, or water tank, to the edge of the mountain pasture of Stamara, which opens up to a beautiful view of the Julian Alps.
