Access to the starting point:
Take the Mojstrana, then follow the signs for the Vrata valley. Continue through the Vrata valley, and about 100 metres before the 10 km road marker, you will see cart track branching off to the right perpendicular to the main road. This is the start of the route described. The marked parking area where parking is allowed is about 500 metres further along the main road.
Path description:
Take the cart track sign, which leads into the forest and after a short climb leads to a small house. After the house where the crossroads is, continue on the path which runs slightly to the left. The ascent follows through the forest and then across a clearing with fallen trees. The path continues slightly to the left towards the Red Brook, with a number of fallen trees along the way. For a short time we continue to climb through the forest, and then the path leads us to a slightly less visible crossroads. At the crossroads, there is a face and the letter L carved into a tree on the right hand side. On the left hand side of the path, however, you can see an arrow carved into a tree, pointing to the right.
At the crossroads we continue to the right and the path begins to climb steeply through the forest and then turns slightly more to the right and slowly leads us to steep slopes. In the keys we then climb for some time over the steep slopes and the forest becomes a little thinner so that the path begins to open up to wonderful views towards Triglav and the other peaks above the Vrata valley. The slopes on which the path runs continue to be quite steep and also dangerous for slipping, so some caution is also needed. The higher up the path, as it leads to the north side of Brinova glava, the trees are again a little denser. Here the path soon leads us to a crossroads where we will notice a narrower path that branches off to the right towards the top of Juniper's Head.
Take the above-mentioned path, which runs along a narrower vegetated ridge towards the summit. First through sparse forest and then, with a few dwarf pines, you will quickly reach a very scenic summit.
