Access to starting point:
We leave Gorenjska highway at exit Hrušica and follow the road ahead in the direction of Kranjska Gora. Just a little before the village Dovje the road which goes to Mojstrana (Vrata, Kot and Krma) branches off to the left. We follow the road ahead in the direction of valley Vrata and we drive on that road to the large parking lot near Aljažev dom.
Path description:
From the parking lot, we continue on a macadam road which after 3 minutes of walking brings us to a crossing at Aljažev dom. We continue straight in the direction of Triglav, Luknja and Pogačnikov dom (right Škrlatica) on a wide path, which goes behind the chapel (on the right side) and Aljažev dom (on the left side) into a lane of a forest. A wide tourist - walking path past the winter bivouac brings us out of the forest, where in front of us we notice the famous wedge (monument dedicated to fallen partisans mountaineers). We continue straight (left Tominšek route) on the path which returns into the forest and it brings us to the next crossing. We continue right in the direction of Pogačnikov dom (straight path čez Prag and Luknja) on the path that starts ascending steeper through the forest. After few minutes of additional walking, we cross a short panoramic clearing, and then the path returns into the forest and starts ascending even steeper. At the altitude 1300 meters by the path, we notice a well (in dry periods dries up) after which we soon pass out of the forest to the foot of steep Sovatna. Here, the path branches off to the left towards the bivouac below Luknja, and we continue straight on a steeper path. The path ahead from grassy slopes passes on gravel slopes (carefully at the descent) and occasionally ascends over a shorter rocky jump. The valley Sovatna then gradually narrows and the path brings us to a short slightly demanding spot (over a jump). With the help of fixed safety gear we ascend a level higher, where the steepness decreases a little. Ahead increasingly panoramic path quickly brings us to a crossing on Dovška vratca.
We continue right in the direction of Stenar and Križ (left Bovški Gamsovec and Pogačnikov dom) on the path which gradually starts ascending towards Stenarska vratca. After few minutes of the ascent, the path splits into two parts, we continue left (right Stenar). After that, the path from the scree passes on a slightly exposed slopes, which in a moderate ascent we cross towards the northwest. Considerably slippery path higher brings us below the upper foot of Križ. Here the path steeply ascends and brings us on a slightly exposed ridge, where with the help of stemple and a steel cable we ascend on a panoramic peak.
