Access to the starting point:
From the Ljubljana - Jesenice motorway, take the Lesce exit and follow the road towards Bled and on to Bohinjska Bistrica. Continue towards Bohinjsko jezero (Ribčev laz), at which you will come to a crossroads where you will turn right towards Stara Fužina. At Stara Fužina, at the crossroads by the chapel, turn sharp left onto the ascending road towards mountain pasture Blato, mountain pasture Vogar and the Voja valley. The road continues to the place where the toll and parking fees are collected, and we follow it to the next crossroads, where we continue to the left (right Voje). We then follow the road to the next crossroads (we drive for some time), where we take a sharp right in the direction of mountain pasture Blato (straight ahead mountain pasture Vogar). Follow this road to the parking lot above mountain pasture Blato.
Path description:
From the parking lot at mountain pasture Mud, follow the road back a little to the signs at cart track. Here we take the cart track, which climbs steeply at first and then moderately, and within ten minutes' walk leads us to a crossroads, where we turn left (straight mountain pasture in Laz). Cart track is then followed through the forest to the hut at mountain pasture at Jezero. Here you will have a view of the surrounding hills. Go around the mountain hut on the left and the path leads us in a slight downhill to a crossroads where we continue straight along cart track (to the left mountain pasture Viševnik). The mostly rocky cart track, which follows an unmarked valley, climbs steeply a few times and, after half an hour's walk from mountain pasture at Jezero, leads to mountain pasture Dedno polje, where you reach the next crossroads.
Continue in the direction of mountain pasture Ovčarija and after about half an hour's walk you will reach a less visible crossroads where a path branches off to the left, leading directly to the shepherds' huts at mountain pasture Ovčarija. Just beyond this junction, a small meadow will be seen on the right-hand side of the path. Leave the marked path here and turn right. There is also a small cairn along the path. If you do not find the turn-off, you can also continue on the marked path towards Mala Tičarica and then, at the foot of Mala Tičarica, descend right into the valley between Belo Glavo and Tičarica. If you have successfully found the turnoff, head across the meadow and then into the sparse forest. Here we walk mostly on a trackless track, only in a few places on a less visible track. When the forest ends, continue along a narrow valley that is not overgrown with dwarf pines. This valley leads us nicely past dwarf pines and leads us to the meadow between Belo Glavo and Malo Tičarica. Continue north across the meadow and just before the end of the meadow you will see a narrow path to the sharp right through dwarf pines. Try to stick to the north-west slope of the mountain at the start, then cross the western slopes just below the summit and reach the summit from the south. The White Head is covered on all sides with dwarf pines and it is rare that anyone manages to get through the labyrinth system without climbing through dwarf pines.
