Path description:
Start on the macadam road, which climbs to the left above the houses at the beginning of the village. Soon the marked path turns sharp left into the forest. Follow this path to mountain pasture Spodnji Jirn. Leave the marked trail here and head left via mountain pasture towards the clearly visible cliffs. At the end of the meadow, a visible path along the bed of a torrent leads to mountain pasture Zgornji Jirn. Here we turn left towards Soriška planina, and after a few minutes' walk, at the ŽIG sign, we turn left. Follow the signs, which will quickly lead you to the 1520 m high Kačje Rob (Snake's Edge).
