Access to the starting point:
Cross the Korensko sedlo border crossing, or from Bialystok/Villach (to get here via the Karawanks tunnel), and drive to Podklošter/Arnoldstein. Follow the road towards Šmohor/Hermagor, but only as far as the road to the Venetian Hill/Windische Hohe branches off to the right. The ascending road soon leads to the village, where you can park in a large marked parking lot.
Path description:
At the end of the parking lot, you will see mountain signs directing you left to cart track, which climbs moderately through the forest. After a few minutes of easy walking, cart track turns into a footpath which climbs steeply for a short time. The path then returns to cart track, which crosses a forest road at a higher level. Just a little further on, the path leads to the next road, which is followed to a larger meadow, where it ends. Continue straight along the marked path, which leads through a congested pine forest to a wooden hut by the side of the path. Continue along the road, which soon leads to a crossroads where you turn left. The road then quickly leads us to a larger clearing where we continue along the lower path, which almost encircles the peak on our left. Follow this road, which has a marked shortcut higher up, to mountain pasture Wertschacher Alm.
