Planina Blato - Debeli vrh (via planina Laz)

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 leads to a place where tolls 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 cart track, which turns sharply uphill at the beginning of the parking lot. After a good ten minutes you will reach a crossroads where you go right towards mountain pasture in Laz. After a few steps we are back at the crossroads. Go right again along cart track. The path ascends moderately and mostly passes through the forest. After an hour and a half of walking, the path forks off to the right at mountain pasture Krstenica. We continue straight on. The path starts to descend slightly here. Soon we are at mountain pasture. From mountain pasture we continue on the marked trail which goes over Lazovški preval towards Vodnik's home. The path climbs gently at first through a sparse forest. The path soon emerges from the forest and climbs slightly steeper. At Lazovški preval, leave the waymarked trail. Bear left along the less well-trodden track. The path crosses dwarf pines and breaks onto the grassy slopes to the east of Fat Peak. Here the path turns further left towards the ravine in Debele Vrh. We are helped to find the path by cairns. The path crosses the ravine and climbs steeply up the southern grassy slopes. The path climbs with good views and soon leads to a ridge. Follow the broad ridge to the summit of Debeli Peak. For many mountaineers, this peak is the goal. If we wish, we can continue to the western summit, which is a few metres higher. The route to it is difficult and exposed. The path initially descends into a gully, where a few metres of climbing is required, then on the other side of the gully you climb steeply up a slightly exposed slope to the ridge. The ridge is no longer difficult and the summit is reached in a few minutes. Blato-Laz 1:30. Laz-Preval 1:00. Preval-Vrh 1:15.
