Access to the starting point:
Take the Tržič, then turn left off Predilniška cesta in the direction of Podljubelj. Continue through the old town centre, still following the signs for Podljubelj at the crossroads. The way ahead leads along the Koroška Road, where you will soon see small gardens on the right, followed by a mountain sign for Kofce past Završnik. At the sign the described route starts, but as there are no parking spaces at the starting point, we have to park higher up the road, or in the centre of Tržič.
Path description:
From the asphalt road, the signs for Kofce direct you to cart track, which starts to climb moderately. cart track first crosses the slopes to the left and then turns into an undistinguished valley where a marked trail branches slightly to the left from cart track (if you follow cart track you will arrive at a climbing area). Continue on the marked path and after a minute or two return to cart track and we follow it to the left. We continue on the new cart track, from which we soon turn left, and the fork is harder to see because of the dispersion.
The way forward leads along a gently sloping mountain path which crosses the slopes to the left. A little further on, another path joins us from the left, and just a few 10 steps further on we arrive at a small ridge where we leave the marked path towards Kal and Kofcam and continue on the right steeply upwards.
The way forward leads us along a less good path, but it is mostly traceable. At first we climb steeply through the forest, but after the trail has been laid, the trail leads us through increasingly sparse forest. As we climb, through the tall grasses in the midday, we occasionally get some views. A little higher up, the forest ends and the path flattens out, and a few steps further on we reach a bench and a registration box. From the signing-in box, it's just a few steps of climbing to the top, where the Slovenian flag is located.
