Access to the starting point:
a) From the motorway Ljubljana - Jesenice, take the exit Lesce and then continue to Bled. At Bled, "overlook" the left turn-offs in the direction of Koritno, Bodešče, Ribno and Sel, and continue driving to the traffic lights where the road to Gorje and Pokljuka turns off to the right. At this junction, continue straight ahead and start descending towards Lake Bled. When you see the Peking Chinese Restaurant on the left, leave the main road towards Bohinjska Bistrica and follow the road behind the restaurant to the left onto Narodnih herojev Street. At a few small junctions continue along the main road, then arrive at Cankarjeva cesta, which you then drive along for a while, or to the junction by the chapel, where you continue slightly right in the direction of Sela and Dobra gora (continue along the main road Ribno). Continue driving along the gradually narrowing road, which takes you along meadows and fields for a while, then turns into a forest through which it begins to descend. Lower down the forest ends, and we arrive in the village of Selo and a little further on at a small crossroads, where we continue straight on (left and then immediately right) down towards Sava and Kupljenik (left Ribno, right Bled). There is some more downhill on the still relatively narrow road, and then the asphalt ends and we take a slightly wider macadam road to the Selo Bridge over the Sava Bohinjka. Park in a convenient place by the bridge.
b) First drive to Podbrdo and from there to Bohinjska Bistrica (by car-train or via Soriška mountain pasture). From Bohinjska Bistrica continue driving to Bled, and when you reach the lake turn right towards Sela. Continue along the narrow Mill Road. Bled soon ends, and the still relatively narrow road leads to the village of Selo, where at a small crossroads in the middle of the village we continue to the right in the direction of Sava and Kupljenik (left Bled, straight Ribno). There is some more downhill on the still relatively narrow road, and then the asphalt ends, and we take a slightly wider macadam road to the Selo Bridge over the Sava Bohinjka River. Park in a convenient place by the bridge.
Path description:
From the starting point, first cross the Selski Most bridge, then on its other side continue right in the direction of Kupljenik and Bohinjska Bela. Walk along the road for a short distance, then the signs for Talež direct you left onto the wider cart track, which begins to climb gently alongside a fenced pasture. At a slight right turn, leave the wide cart track and continue straight ahead on the noticeably narrower cart track, which slowly starts to turn to the left. Cart track crosses another short meadow, at the edge of which stands a dilapidated shack, and then passes into woods, through which it begins to climb moderately. After a few minutes of further walking, cart track splits into two parts, and we continue along the right-hand one, which begins to climb steeply after a crossroads (straight ahead to Koča na Taležu). Cart track, which runs through the forest all the time, is joined higher up by the marked trail from the village Kupljenik, and we follow it uphill until we reach a small saddle, where there is also a crossroads of several trails.
Here we continue to the left and, passing a bench and a commemorative NOB plaque, we walk to the end of cart track.
From the end of cart track, continue along a steeper forest path, which will take you to the forested Tolsti vrh in a few minutes.
