Access to the starting point:
From the Ljubljana - Jesenice motorway, take the Lesce exit and follow the road towards Bled and on to Bohinjska Bistrica. Continue towards Bohinjsko jezero (Ribčev laz), at which you will come to a crossroads where you will turn right towards Stara Fužina. At Stara Fužina, at the crossroads by the chapel, turn sharp left onto the ascending road towards mountain pasture Blato, mountain pasture Vogar and the Voja valley. Follow this road to the parking lot where tolls and parking fees are collected. The parking fee is € 1/h.
Path description:
From the parking lot, continue along the asphalt road, which continues towards mountain pasture Blato, mountain pasture Vogar and the Voje valley. The road, at first relatively steep, quickly becomes steeper and then leads to a signpost marking a crossroads.
At the sign, leave the asphalt road and continue to the left in the direction of Vogar and Pršivec. The path first crosses a scenic pasture and then passes into the forest, through which it climbs on the stone cart track. In a few long serpentines, the path ascends a step higher, where it becomes a little more level. Just a little further on, however, we see the signs for the NOB monument, which is situated next to a nice lookout point and a paragliding take-off point, from which we have a nice view of Bohinjsko jezero, Rudnica and the Lower Bohinj Mountains.
From the lookout we return to the marked path, which quickly leads us to the eastern edge of mountain pasture Spodnji Vogar. The way forward is mostly a gentle climb through meadows, and we see a large number of former shepherd's huts along the way, which are now mainly converted into cottages. Follow this path, which continues to climb gently, to Kosijev dom na Vogarju, which is reached after a few minutes of further walking.
From home, continue right in the direction of Pršivec and Mountain pasture at Jezero, and the path leads us along the wide cart track, which leads us past a small cross to a marked crossroads.
At the crossroads, continue left in the direction of mountain pasture Vodični vrh, Črno jezero and Pršivca (right Mountain pasture at Jezero). The path goes into the woods shortly after the crossroads and then ascends crosswise. Follow the path towards Pršivec for about 5 minutes, then a marked path branches off to the right, leading to mountain pasture Vodični vrh (the branch is not marked, but it is marked). Continue along the above-mentioned path, which climbs steeply to a nearby macadam road. Once on the road, follow it to the left, and we walk along it for only a few 10 steps, then continue right on the relatively steep cart track. We walk for a short time on cart track, and then the now rather faded markings direct us slightly left onto a marked footpath. The path climbs steeply through the woods, and then the track lays down and crosses the old tractor track logging trail. Continue climbing steeply for a few minutes, then the path changes to a steep slope, over which you begin to climb steeply to the left. Higher up, the path goes downhill into a small valley, where it becomes a little harder to follow. A little further on, the forest thins out and the path turns first slightly to the left and then to the right into a dense forest, where it becomes completely flat. After a few minutes of easy walking, the path starts to climb again and leads to a marked but less visible crossroads. Leave the marked trail here, which leads further towards Mountain pasture near Jezero and continue left along the also marked trail, which will take you down to mountain pasture Vodični vrh within a minute of further walking.
