Access to the starting point:
a) First drive to Luče, then continue to the Podvolovljek valley (direction Kamnik and Kranjski Rak). At the road sign between 11 and 11. 5 km, you will come to a small crossroads where the road to the right branches off towards Farmer Planinšek and the mountains Podveža, Ravne and Vodole (the branch is marked). Take this initially still asphalted road, which you follow at the crossroads in the route mountain pasture Ravne. Following a relatively long and in the upper part also worse macadam road, you will reach mountain pasture Ravne (possible starting point). We continue a little further, along a sometimes rather bad macadam road, which we then follow to the parking area at the end of the road (11 km from the valley, 10 km of which is macadam).
b) From Kamnik, drive towards the Črnivec Pass, but only as far as the crossroads where the road to Kranjski Rak turns sharp left (the turn-off is marked and is located only 500 m before the pass). At the crossroads at Kranjski Rak, continue straight ahead on the main road, which starts descending into the Podvolovljek valley. In the valley, just 100 m after the Gams bar, you will reach a crossroads where the road to the left branches off towards the farmer Planinšek and the mountains Podveža, Ravne and Vodole (the branch is marked). Continue following the above description.
Path description:
From the parking lot at the end of the road, turn left along cart track, which climbs slightly at first. After only two minutes' walking, cart track turns into a footpath which descends only slightly on an indistinct wide gently sloping ridge. After less than ten minutes' walk, the path from mountain pasture joins Ravne (access is also possible via this route) and turns right. Cross the grazing fence and follow the path, which bypasses a fenced pothole on the left, for only a few dozen steps. Here you come to a crossroads where you continue left in the direction of Lučka hut, Korošica and Molička mountain pasture (straight ahead mountain pasture Polšak). The path ahead descends gently into a small valley in which the cold air lingers. At the end of the valley, the path turns slightly right and climbs to a bench by the memorial to the fallen fighters.
The path continues to climb moderately for the most part, only occasionally descending for a short time. Along the ascending path, however, we occasionally get beautiful views of the peaks to the north of the Dleskovská plateau. After a good hour's walk, the path leads us to Sedelce (1840m), where we join the path with mountain pasture Dolga Trata. Continue a few metres further along the path, which descends gently to the marker for Molička mountain pasture and Korošica.
Continue straight ahead in the direction of Korošica and Molička mountain pasture along the path, which occasionally descends slightly and rises again. The path continues round the slopes of the Velika summit and leads to a crossroads where the path to the summit branches off to the right. Here we continue straight on the path, which leads us only slightly further to the Prag preval, where the next crossroads is. Continue straight on (sharp left mountain pasture Podveža) along the marked mountain path, which gradually starts to descend. After a good 10 minutes of descent, the path is laid and leads to a small swamp, beyond which you reach the next crossroads. Continue slightly left in the direction of Korošice (straight ahead Molička mountain pasture, to the right Robanov kot) along a pleasant mountain path, which begins to climb moderately. Higher up, the trail turns slightly to the left and then joins the trail from mountain pasture Podvežak. Continue right in the direction of Korošice, following the cross-trail, which in a few minutes of further walking ascends to Sedelce (1900 m), where there is a marked crossroads. Continue straight down (left Prag, right Ojstrica over Mala Ojstrica) on the marked path which starts descending towards Korošice. After a few minutes of descending, you will reach the vast grassy slopes of Korošica, which you will then walk along in a few minutes to the mountain lodge.
From the Kocbek's home, continue left in the direction of Podvolovjek and Kamniška Bistrica along the path, which begins to climb gently and then moderately towards the Prag Pass. After about 15 minutes of walking, we reach the preval (we can also get here directly from Sedelce, so we do not have to go down to Kocbek's home, this shortens the path by about 15 minutes), and we follow the marked path for another 10 m to the place where the signs for Lučki Dedec direct us to the right on the unmarked path.
At the place where you see the signs for Lučki Dedec, leave the marked path and continue your ascent along the initially visible path. The path continues along a small valley, then turns right and climbs steeply. Further on, the path, along which there are numerous cairns, starts to disappear, but in good weather this does not cause any orientation problems. There is a climb over a small scree field, and then the path changes to grassy slopes surrounded by dwarf pines. Here, one of the three peaks of the Lučki Dedec will be visible on the right, and we continue straight on along the path which leads us to the main ridge. On the ridge, we continue slightly to the left and the path quickly leads us past the second peak to a large meadow, which we climb in a few steps to the precipitous peak.
