Planina Blato - The lake Zeleno jezero (via Prodi)

Access to the starting point:
From the Gorenjska highway (exit Lesce), Železnikov or Soriška planina, take the Bohinjska Bistrica, then continue driving towards Lake Bohinj. In Ribčev Laz, just before the lake, turn right towards Stara Fužina, where you first cross a bridge with a nice view of Bohinjsko jezero and pass the church of St. John the Baptist. When you arrive in 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 marked parking lot above mountain pasture Blato.

Path description:
From the marked parking lot, retrace your steps back along the road and then follow the ascending cart track in the direction of mountain pasture at Jezero, mountain pasture at Lazo and mountain pasture at Dedno polje. The path along cart track climbs quite steeply at first and after about 10 minutes leads to a marked crossroads where you continue along the left-hand, upper cart track (straight ahead mountain pasture at Lazo and a steep path to mountain pasture at Jezero).
After less than 5 minutes of further ascent, at a right turn, a path with mountain pasture Vogar joins us from the left, and we continue to the right in the direction of mountain pasture at Jezero. We continue up the slightly less steep cart track, which lays completely flat for a short time, then climbs more steeply and leads us through an artificial "narrow". After the 'narrows', the cart track is laid down again, and the abovementioned steep path joins us from the right behind two benches. After the crossroads, the path turns left and leads to a pasture fence, beyond which you enter a small valley where the cold air usually stays. The path gradually becomes steeper again and then, as it flattens out, turns right. A little further on, a path joins us from the left, leading over or past mountain pasture Vodični vrh.
From this crossroads onwards, the forest begins to thin out, but when we finally step out of the forest, we are already at mountain pasture near Jezero, where we are only a few 10 steps of easy walking away from the nearby mountain hut.
From the hut, continue left downhill (slightly right mountain pasture in Laz and Vodnikov dom) and descend to the shepherd's huts, where the next marked crossroads are.
From the crossroads, continue straight on in the direction mountain pasture Dedno polje (left up mountain pasture Viševnik) and continue along cart track, which starts to climb steeply after mountain pasture. Higher up, another path branches off to the left towards mountain pasture Viševnik, passing Krištofojce, and we follow the wide dirt track all the way to mountain pasture Dedno polje, which offers a fine view of the surrounding mountains.
Bypass the shepherd's huts and the cheese cottage on the left and continue straight on in the direction Koča pri Triglavskih jezerih (right valley Za Kopico). From mountain pasture onwards, we start to climb moderately, and the path from the nearby hunting hut joins us almost imperceptibly from the left. A little further on, the path leads us past another trail branch towards mountain pasture Viševnik (the path along Griva (1758 m)), and in the next few minutes we arrive at the upper edge of the vast mountain pasture Ovčarije, where we have a beautiful view of the Bohinjsko - Tolmin mountains. From here there is a short descent, and then we join the path from the left with mountain pasture Vogar, which leads over mountain pasture Viševnik, and a few steps further on the path splits into two parts.
Here we continue slightly left in the direction of Koča pri Triglavskih jezerih (the path over Prode) along the path which, after a few more minutes, leads us to a beautiful lookout point (view of the Bohinj - Tolmin mountains). Here the path turns sharp right and in a moderate descent crosses steep grassy slopes. The path then enters the forest and for a short time begins to climb steeply. The steepness then eases and the path leads us out of the dense forest to a crossroads where the path from the Black Lake joins us on the left. Continue straight on the path, which climbs gently and after a few minutes leads us to a place where we see the Double Lake in front of us. The path continues gently downhill to the lake and continues along the right side of the lake. Here we come to a crossroads where the path to Tičarica branches off to the right, or joins the path across Štapce. Continue on the lower path, which after a few minutes of further walking leads to Koča pri Triglavskih jezerih, which you can see in front of you.
From the hut, continue in the direction of Prehodavci and Hribarice and continue past the artificial lake Močivec. Just after the lake, the path begins to climb moderately through a less and less vegetated valley. The pleasant and scenic route leads us further along the Valley of the Triglav Lakes, which quickly leads us to a marked crossroads where the path to Veliko or Lepo Špičje branches off to the left.
Continue in the direction of Prehodavce and follow the relatively gently sloping path, which first crosses a belt of rare larch forest, and then continues along a pleasant valley. The path continues to climb moderately and leads us to a small preval, from which we have a beautiful view of Jezero v Ledvicah.

The marked trail bypasses the lake on the right, where it continues along the extensive scree fields at the foot of the two Zelnarice lakes. After the lake, the path returns from the scree to the Valley of the Triglav Lakes, along which it continues its relatively steep ascent. Already a completely high-mountain path, it climbs steeply for a short time higher up, then lays down completely and, after a few minutes of further walking, leads us to Zelená jezero (Green Lake).
