Radovna - Frčkova planina

Access to the starting point:
a) From the motorway Ljubljana - Jesenice take the exit Lesce and follow the road towards Bled. At the traffic lights in Bled, the signs for Pokljuka direct you to the right. Continue through Spodnje and Zgornje Gorje to the village Cirque, where you leave the main road and continue right towards Radovna and Cirque. Follow the main road through Cirque and then turn left after the bridge over the river Radovna towards Mojstrana and Radovna. After a few kilometres, the asphalt ends and we follow the dirt road over the bridge over the river Radovna. After crossing the bridge, you will reach the left side of the river (right bank) and from the bridge you will drive to the first turn of the dirt road to the left. Park in a suitable place on the roadside near the crossroads.
b) Leave the Gorenjska motorway at the Hrušica exit and follow the road towards Kranjska Gora. Just before the village of Dovje, the road branches off to the left into Mojstrana (Vrata, Kot and Krma). Follow the road towards the village of Radovna and the valleys of Krma and Kot. The relatively steep road then leads us past a TNP signboard, after which the road soon levels off and leads us to a crossroads where a dirt road branches off to the right into the Kot valley. Continue straight ahead on the road as it begins to descend, and a road quickly branches off to the right, leading to Krma. Continue straight ahead on the main road, which quickly leads to Zgornja Radovna, and at the end of the hamlet to a crossroads, where another road branches off to the right and leads to Krma. Turn left here and continue along the dirt road, following it until the first road forks off to the right. Park in a suitable place on the roadside near the junction.

Path description:
From the starting point, take a side road with a sign that says no further driving (landowners are the exceptions). Just a little further on, the trail takes you past the Slovenian Forest Service huts and a green ramp that prevents further driving (even if the ramp is open, you should not continue driving, as another sign warns you not to).
The road then leads us over a bare slope (the consequences of the October 2009 windstorm), from which we have a beautiful view towards Mežakla. At the crossroads at the top of the windfall, continue to the right, then gradually move into the forest. The relatively steep road splits into two parts again higher up, and this time we continue on the right-hand road (the road leads slightly left towards Konavče gully and Zimova peča). We continue along the Stresena dolina for a short distance, then the road turns sharp right and then climbs cross-country to the next junction, where we continue sharp left along the "main" road (the right-hand road ends in the nearby forests). Just above this junction, you reach a point where you leave the road leading to Pokljuka and take a sharp right onto the road leading to Frčkova mountain pasture.
From the crossroads onwards the road is gradually laid, and we get some views of Kamnik Savinja Alps and part of the Karavanke Mountains. Walk along the road to its end, and from there slightly right along the ascending cart track, which leads us in a few minutes to Frčko's mountain pasture.
