Pod Zjabci - Koča pri Triglavskih jezerih

Access to the starting point:
a) First drive to Kranjska Gora, then continue over the Vršič Pass towards Bovec. Shortly after the Berebica Gallery, you will arrive in the village Soča, where you will turn left over the bridge over the Soča River (towards the Jelinčič Tourist Farm and the Korita bivouac). After the bridge, do not turn left towards the bivouac, but continue driving straight ahead on the ascending asphalt road. Continue climbing through vast meadows, in the middle of which stand a few individual huts, and then the road turns into a forest. Higher up, the road turns quite left and leads us to Pod Zjabcev, where we see mountain direction signs for mountain pasture Za skalo, Dom na Komni and Triglav lakes. Park at a suitable place along the road.
b) From the coastal side, first drive to Bovec, then continue driving towards Trenta. Towards the end of the village Soča, turn right in the direction of the Jelinčič tourist farm and the Korita bivouac. After the bridge, do not turn left towards the bivouac, but continue straight on the ascending asphalt road. Continue climbing through vast meadows, in the middle of which stand a few individual huts, and then the road turns into a forest. Higher up, the road turns quite left and leads us to Pod Zjabcev, where we see mountain direction signs for mountain pasture Za skalo, Dom na Komni and Triglav lakes. Park at a suitable place along the road.

Path description:
From Pod Zjabcev, follow the marked trail, which passes the nearby cottage on the right. After the cottages, the path goes into the woods and quickly leads to a small crossroads, where you continue right across the stream. On the other side of the stream, the path turns left and starts to climb moderately through the dense forest. The ascent continues along the old mule track, which is already fairly loaded in several places, but it leads us higher up to a short steep rocky section. A well-maintained and wide mulatier leads us through this part, and the path above this part leads us to a viewpoint from which we have a beautiful view of the Bavški Grintavec.
From the viewpoint, the path returns to the forest and climbs quickly up to an old water trough (there is a small spring along the path, which dries up in dry periods). Above the trough, the path turns slightly left and then climbs through the forest in numerous switchbacks. Higher up, the path bends slightly and leads to a less visible crossroads, where an abandoned path branches off to the left towards mountain pasture Za skalo.
From here we continue straight on, but again a slightly steeper path, after 10 minutes of further walking, leads us to the next, this time completely unmarked crossroads. Here, an unmarked path branches off to the right, leading to a nearby hunting lodge and on towards mountain pasture behind Črni vrh, a hunting trail branches off to the left towards mountain pasture behind the rock, and we continue straight on to the next crossroads nearby, which is slightly better marked.
Here we continue straight ahead, or slightly right, along the marked trail in the direction of Triglav Lakes and Komna. Continue along the gently sloping path through the coniferous forest to the fork in the trail.
From the fork, continue along the left-hand path in the direction of Koča pri Triglavskih jezerih (straight Komna and Lanževica), which bypasses Dol za Bajarjem on the left. The way forward for some time only crosses the slopes, then for a short time climbs and leads us into a small valley, where we arrive at a small crossroads. At the crossroads, continue left along the marked trail (straight unmarked path (mulatjera) leading towards Mali vrata), which then climbs crosswise over moderately steep grassy slopes. Higher up, the path leads through a series of small, undistinguished valleys, then climbs a little more and leads us under the cliffs, where the next, less visible, crossroads is located. Here we continue to the right (to the left, along a small mogic, a partly pathless path leads towards the Travnik valley) and for a while we cross the slopes below the cliffs, then the path, which continues along the old mulatier, turns slightly left and starts to climb more steeply. After a short steeper part, the marked trail turns right (here the path continues straight ahead on the pathless approach to Čelo - marked cairns) and leads to the Great Gate, where you can see the old boundary stone of the Rapallo border. Here, a pathless approach to Kal branches off to the right, and we continue along the marked path, which descends to the nearby scrapers. We continue along the scree, through which, despite the markings, orientation is very difficult in the fog. With a view of the chain of mountains above the Triglav Lakes Valley, we quickly reach the eastern edge of the vast scrape, where the markings lead us left into a short gully, through which we descend steeply for a few metres. The path quickly lays down and gradually becomes lane of dwarf pines, scrub and low and sparse forest. A less well-beaten, but permanently marked path leads lower down through tall grasses, over which you descend to the mountain pasture Hatch.
The mountain pasture is joined by a wider and more well-trodden path from Komna, and we follow it to the left in the direction of the Hut by the Triglav Lakes. On the other side of mountain pasture the path goes into a partly sparse forest, through which it starts to climb moderately to occasionally steeply. Higher up, the path flattens out and turns left. A few minutes of downhill and the path leads to the Double Lake, and from there it is only a short 10-step walk to the nearby mountain hut.
