Access to the starting point:
Drive into Kamnik and follow the road towards the Kamnik Bistrica valley. From your home in Kamniška Bistrica, continue driving along the forest road, which takes you higher up to a crossroads, where you continue straight ahead (right Jermanca, starting point for Kamniško sedlo). The road then takes you past Žagana peči to the parking lot at the lower station of the cargo cableway to Kokrsko sedlo.
After the new traffic sign, driving from the Kamniški Bistrica hut to the V Koncu parking lot is forbidden, which extends the journey by almost an hour.
Path description:
From the parking lot at the cargo cableway, follow the footpath towards Kokrsko sedlo and Grintovec. The path through the forest climbs gently at first, but this part of the path is short. After a few minutes of walking, the path starts to climb steeply and a little higher up we are helped by the fixed safety gear, which come in handy when the ground is wet and slippery (not difficult in dry conditions). However, the well visible and still steep trail starts to turn slightly to the right higher up. The steepness then eases for a short time and the path leads us out of the forest onto the avalanche slopes below Kokrsko sedlo. Here the path straightens out again and, with increasingly beautiful views (these are the most beautiful of the peaks above the Kamnik Bistrica valley), climbs along the foot of the Kalška gora and Malá vrh walls. Easy to follow, but due to a lot of rocks (slightly overgrown scree) on the way, the path is tiring, and after a good 2 hour walk leads us to Kokrsko sedlo, where Cojzova koča (Cojz's hut) stands.
From the saddle, continue right in the direction of Grintovec, Kočna and Skute. The path climbs steeply immediately above the saddle and leads us slightly higher to a crossroads where the path to the bivouac under Grintovec and Skuta branches off to the right (straight Grintovec over Streha and Kočna). We take this initially slightly less visible path, which leads us in a moderate ascent to a picturesque passage over the Little Gate. Beyond the narrow passage Mala vratca, the path begins to descend a steep and occasionally slightly exposed slope. At the end of the descent, which takes us about 100 vertical metres, we are helped by a few wedges. There is a gully crossing and then a climb through the high mountains to the bivouac below Grintovec.
V Koncu - Kokrsko sedlo 2:15, Kokrsko sedlo - bivouac pod Grintovcem 1:15.

Brane V. šel mimo njega minuli ponedeljek s povratka s Skute. Žal skoraj ne zasluži tega imena,ker je v obupnem stanju.Lahko bi nudil spodoben počitek utrujenemu gorniku,žal pa se ga raje vsak izogne. Obnoviti je poptrebno vse.Ocena 1. za skrbnika .

Danes šel ponovno mimo na poti na Grintavec.Stanje enako kot pred letom dni.Notri je res en strgan zvezek z vpisi.Predlagam ,da bi tudi za bivake uvedli omarice z žigi in vpisne knjige.
