Ravenska Kočna - Češka koča na Spodnjih Ravneh (umik Žrela)

Access to the starting point:
From the motorway Ljubljana - Jesenice take the exit Kranj - East and follow the road towards Jezersko. At Zgornje Jezersko, just past the petrol station, you will see a road that branches off the main road to the right (towards Planšarsko jezero). The road then takes you past the lake and climbs steeply behind it for a short distance. Higher up, the road flattens out and loses its asphalt surface at the beginning of a large meadow. The dirt road is then followed to a marked large parking lot.

Path description:
From the parking lot, continue along the macadam road following the signs "Češka koča, Ledine" and after about 15 minutes' walk you will reach the cargo cableway.
From the cable car, follow the signs Kranjska koča na Ledinah (through the hatch, Slovenska pot) and Češka koča (retreat of the hatch). At first you walk through the forest for a short time, and then the path leads you to a grassy area partly covered with dwarf pines. Here the path turns slightly to the left and then ascends crosswise along the sparse dwarf pines, and later along scree. This path leads to a crossroads. Turn right to where the inscription 'Češka koča' on the rock directs you. To the left, the path leads to the Cottage on the Lediny (Slovenian Way, Through the Throat).
The path begins to climb crosswise in the direction of Češka koča (south-west). Later, the path turns slightly to the left and, following a slope partly covered with dwarf pines, leads to a crossroads under steep cliffs. Continue right towards the Czech Cottage, and to the left the path leads through a gully to Ledine. The path gradually becomes slightly more difficult and most of the time crosses a slightly exposed slope to the west with the help of a cable car. There is a short exposed traverse under rock overhangs, and then the path becomes easier and soon leads to the Češka hut with a rare dwarf pines.
