Path description:
From the bottom station of the cable car on Krvavec we continue on the asphalt road towards Štefanja Gora, and there we walk to the first left turn, in the middle of which marked path, at first rough road towards Krvavec branches off to the right. Rough road, on which we continue the ascent is ascending on the right bank of Reka, and from there soon marked path which leads on Krvavec branches off to the left, and we continue straight, on a cart track which is then ascending through a ditch Lukenjski graben. At some crossings we follow the main cart track, and higher views start to open up, which reaches all the way to Triglav. Cart track further becomes quite rocky, when higher brings us to extensive gravel terrain, we continue right on a macadam road, on which we gently ascend towards the right and then we gradually leave Lukenjski graben. When a little ahead we reach the ridge of the hill Požeg (1076 meters) road turns sharply to the left, after that few minutes ahead joins an asphalt road which leads towards Krvavec. On the mentioned road, we in few minutes ascend to tourist farm pr Ambružarju, from where a beautiful view opens up on Gorenjska.
From the tourist farm we return to the main road, and from there we continue few steps ahead left on the path in the direction of Krvavec. The path ahead leads us by site of wild garlic, and higher crosses the asphalt road. After quite steep ascent, which mostly runs through the forest, we once again get very close to the road or for few steps we also reach it. We immediately continue right in the direction of the mountain pasture Jezerca and we are gently to moderately ascending. We quickly reach the cart track, on which we step out of the forest on the mountain pasture Jezerca, where there are some wooden cottages.
We continue past few cottages, and then behind the cottages from the left joins the path from a large marked parking lot by mountain pasture Jezerca. We continue in the direction of Kriška planina, on a path, which at first with nice views, after that partly through the forest brings us to the bottom part of the mountain pasture Kriška planina, from where we can ascend also to one of the shepherd huts on the mountain pasture.
