Access to the starting point:
From the motorway Ljubljana - Jesenice take the exit Ljubelj (Tržič), then turn right downhill before the petrol station in Bistrica pri Tržiču, where you will quickly reach Tržič. At the junction after the Mercator shop, turn left towards the Tržič Museum, and we continue along Koroška Road, which we follow through the town centre to the nearby pizzeria. Here, turn right through the old courtyard gate and then pass the pizzeria's guest parking lot and the children's playground to the parking lot next to the castle.
You can also park elsewhere in Tržič.
Path description:
From where you parked, first walk to the pizzeria, then continue along the asphalt road in the route Dobrča through Ravne and Kofc past Završnik. The road we are walking on soon splits, and this time we continue on the upper road (slightly left Dobrča), which leads us past a few more houses and a sign (cross). A few 10 metres further on from the cross, at a place where there is a sign for speed bumps, we continue slightly to the right, on a side road, which we follow up to the nearby allotments. Follow the minor road up above the allotments, where the path leads to a waterworks building, which you pass on the right-hand side. Above the waterworks, the road finally changes to cart track, and then into the woods, through which it climbs moderately to steeply. The higher, wider cart track, which we continue along, turns left, and then, just before its end, we leave it and continue sharp right, on the well-trodden and well-surfaced Milanovo trail. The path continues to climb with occasional bends and occasional views, and then leads to a small saddle to the north of Kamneka.
Continue left (straight on the Waterfall, right on the Kamnek, and sharp right on the trail that bypasses the summit of Kamnek and then descends into Tržič) and begin a gentle to moderate climb along the Pirmance ridge. When the ridge becomes quite steep, the marked trail turns left onto slightly less steep slopes, over which you continue crosswise to the right. After a few minutes the forest thins out a little and the path returns to the ridge, which is reached just at the small pass between the summits of Pirmance and Veliki vrh.
Here you leave the marked trail, which passes to the right eastern side of the mountain and continue straight up the unmarked, but well-traced trail, which in 5 minutes of further walking will take you to the scenic Velika peak above Završnik.
