Tuškov Grič - Blegoš (via Črni vrh)

Access to the starting point:
From Škofja Loka, drive towards Gorenjska vas and on to Hotavlje. Here, the signs for the ski centre direct you to the right. At the next crossroads, follow the road in the direction of the ski resort and the road will then lead you to a large parking lot called Počivalo. Continue across the parking lot on the road, which starts to descend and quickly leads to the next junction, where you continue uphill to the right. Follow the road to the next large parking lot, called Tuškov Hill.
Access from Cerkno: Drive through Novaky towards the Cerkno ski centre to the Tuškov Hill parking lot.
From Železniki, drive through Davča to the Cerkno ski centre. Park at the Tuškov Grič parking lot.

Path description:
Near the parking lot we see mountain signs directing us on the path towards Blegoš and Črnega vrha. The path initially crosses a meadow, then goes into the forest, where it climbs moderately. After about 15 minutes, you will come to a forest road which quickly leads you out of the forest to the Cerkno ski slope (walking on the ski slope is forbidden when the ski slope is in operation). The ascent then continues on a less good road, which leads up the ski slope and takes you a little higher to a crossroads. Continue on the left road, which leads directly to Črni vrh (direction Blegoš) or on the right road, which leads us in 5 minutes to the mountain lodge on Črni vrh and from there we climb to the nearby Črni vrh. The two routes merge slightly higher up and take the gently sloping road, which takes us past numerous cable cars and leads us to Črni vrh within a few minutes of further walking.
From Črni vrh, continue along the marked trail, which descends to the edge of the forest on the other side of the lake. Here, signs direct you to the right on a descending footpath, which leads to a nearby road. When you reach the macadam road, just cross it and continue along the wide cart track, which after a short descent starts to climb gently. Leave the cart track and continue slightly to the right along the marked footpath. The way forward quickly passes into a slightly more sparse forest through which, next to a "plantation" of blueberries, we climb to the undistinguished summit of Smoletovše (1300 m).
From this peak the path starts to descend moderately, and soon steeply, towards the Slugov grič saddle. At the saddle, you will come out onto a forest road, and the paths from the villages of Laze and Robidnica will join from the right. Continue in the direction of Blegoš and continue along the forest road, which you follow for only a few 10 m, as the markings then direct you to the right on the marked path, which continues to climb along cart track. Cart track, which has a few forks, but these are mostly relatively well marked, is higher and after a few minutes of further walking leads us to a macadam road. We continue along the above-mentioned road, which quickly leads us to a marked crossroads where the paths from Volaka, Leskovica and Laz join from the right. Continue in the direction of Koča na Blegošu and continue the ascent along the forest road. After 10 minutes from the marked crossroads, step out of the forest and see the Blegoš Cottage in front of you, just a few steps of easy walking away.
From Koča na Blegošu, continue along the initially gently sloping path, which climbs over a grassy slope with a view. The path soon begins to climb steeply and leads us to the edge of the forest, where it then climbs along a narrow uncultivated strip. The steepness soon gives way and the path leads to the Blegoš ridge, which is overloked and takes a few minutes to reach the summit.
