Access to starting point:
From highway Ljubljana - Jesenice we go to the exit Lipce, where we turn left in the direction of Blejska Dobrava and Spodnje Gorje. Soon when we drive past the railway underpass, we are at the next crossroad, where we turn right - Bled, Kočna. At first, a zig-zag road ascends straight towards the west and soon at the left turn reaches the top or settlement Kočna. Our starting point is located on the left side of the road, few meters before the settlement sign. Beacause of continuous line we drive ahead past first houses, where on the right we notice a bus stop. Here we turn around and return back, almost to the turn, where we would descend back into a valley. We stop on a macadam parking lot.
Path description:
From the spot where we've parked, we at first carefully cross the road and on the other side, we return about 20 meters towards the valley. Here we notice a green sign with the caption "pohodniška pot 6", where in the direction, which it is showing we continue in the forest. Here we turn right, and we soon run into a first blaze, which pointing left uphill on an indistinct ridge. The path is ascends a little steeper, and soon also turns more to the left towards the south and in doing so it flattens. Short time the path is even descending a little, whereupon turns right uphill and after this to the left over rocks. From here further, the path at first brings us for a short time out of the forest and then back into a mostly deciduous forest, where it is moderately ascending. After a good 20 min of walking from the starting point, by the path, we run into a smaller sign with the caption "Baba 5 min", where we go right, and after few minutes of crossing the slopes we get near Poljanska Baba, where we can enjoy the view.
We continue behind Poljanska Baba slightly to the right (direction north-west) on a slope. Almost unnoticeable path at first for few meters descends, and further for a short time crosses a slope on the same altitude. Here we run into barriers in the shape of a lot of fallen trees. Near the quite wide gully, the path also descends a little towards it and then crosses it. If to here we were still able to somehow detect the path, we will be able to follow it only few meters from the gully, where it ascends on quite steep forested, partly with grass vegetated slope. While ascending on that pathless part we go slightly to the right towards the top of the forest ridge, which we see in front of us. With a little luck we will towards the top again run into remains of the path and step on a ridge, where again appears a little more noticeable path. We turn right and on the more and more rocky ridge we go in the direction of east, where in few minutes we reach our destination - vantage point Kres nad Kočno. Few meters below the summit, looking in the direction of the settlement, we also notice a religious symbol - a wooden cross.
On the way: Poljanska baba (830m)
