Access to the starting point:
Leave the Gorenjska Motorway at the Podtabor junction and continue to Ljubelj. After approximately 6 km of driving from Bistrica pri Tržiču, you will reach a crossroads where you turn right into Podljubelj, go right at the crossroads 30 m further, and then park in a suitable place near the Podljubelj branch primary school.
Path description:
Opposite the primary school, signs for Kal and Kofce direct you left onto a side road that starts to climb. After a few houses, the road turns into a forest, then a little higher up it turns right. At this bend, a marked footpath continues straight ahead, and we continue along the road, which loses its asphalt surface. Higher up, the road leads us through the hamlet of Reber, where we continue straight ahead at the crossroads, and a little further on, near the Javorje homestead, the road changes into three branches.
Continue straight ahead on the wider macadam road (hunting lodge slightly left, Javorje homestead slightly right), which continues to cross the slopes to the right. A little further on, a short track branches off the road to the left to a nearby house, and we continue for another 10 steps to the next fork in the road, where we cross a waymarked path (Tržič (Čegelše) - Zavetišče na Kalu).
Continue along the road slightly to the left (Kal and Kofce footpaths to the left, Završnik and Tržič farms slightly to the right), and walk along it to a small pass, where you will see a sign on the left side of the road, and we continue to the right, on the marked path in the direction of Tržič, which continues along the pasture fence. The path ahead leads us along beautiful views of the surrounding mountains, and then passes into a short lane of forest. Gozd soon ends, and a little further on we approach the pasture fence again, where we leave the marked path.
Continue slightly to the right, along a faint track which begins to climb steeply towards Veliki vrh, which is reached after less than 10 minutes of further walking.
