Planina Blato - Veliko Špičje (Za Kopico)

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.
Here you leave the broad path leading to the hut by the Triglav Lakes. Continue to the right (direction Vratca Preval, Hribarice and Prehodavci), initially slightly downhill past shepherd's huts to the above-mentioned mountain pasture. On the other side of mountain pasture the path starts climbing again and leads to a less visible crossroads where the path branches off to the right to mountain pasture in Laz. Continue straight up the path, which gradually starts to climb more steeply. The path, which takes us past the animal watering point (the watering point is dry), climbs mostly through coniferous forest (larch and spruce). After about half an hour's walk from mountain pasture, the world flattens out and we have a fine view of the peaks that surround the initial part of the Za Kopica valley. The route continues up the southern slopes of Slatna and Prvego Vogel, and then gradually passes into the central part of the Za Kopico valley. This valley is then followed all the way to the Vrata saddle, where the path from the Štapce pass (the ridge of Tičarica, Kopica and Zelnarica) joins us from the left. Here we continue on, initially slightly downhill, crossing the slopes of Vršaki, where we cross a wide but slightly exposed short shelf (not difficult), and then we reach a crossroads, where the path from Hribarice joins us. Continue left down the path, which after a short descent leads us to a crossroads, where we continue to the right in the direction of Prehodavcev (the crossroads is near the Green Lake). The way forward leads us to Rjavo jezero and behind it begins to climb towards Zasavska hut, which is located on a lookout hill. From Zasavska huts continue left (south) slightly down the path, which leads us past the winter bivouac to a crossroads. Here, continue straight in the direction Veliko Špičje (right down Trenta) along the path, which is slightly more difficult to find in the fog. The way ahead climbs, first gently and then steeply, towards the top of Malo Špičje. A marked trail turns left just 10 paces below the summit of Malo Špičje and continues along a ridge that is exposed in places. The very scenic ridge trail descends a few times and then ascends again. This path, which is joined shortly below the summit by the path from the hut at Triglav Lakes, is then followed to the summit lookout.
