Access to starting point:
A) First, we drive to Kamnik, and then we continue driving in the direction of Kamniška Bistrica and cableway on Velika planina. In Stahovica we continue left (direction Kamniška Bistrica and cableway Velika planina) and we follow moderately ascending road to a large parking lot near the bottom cableway station on Velika planina (parking lot is located on the right side of the road).
B) From Podvolovljek over mountain pass Volovljek we drive towards Kamnik or from Gornji Grad over the mountain pass Črnivec also towards Kamnik. When we get to Stahovica from the crossroad we continue right in the direction of Kamniška Bistrica and cableway on Velika planina. The mentioned road, we then follow to a large parking lot by the bottom station of a cable car on Velika planina (parking lot is situated on the right side of the road).
Path description:
From the parking lot, we continue on the road in the direction of the mountain pasture Planina Dol and Velika planina. After approximately 100 meters of walking on the road, just before the first right turn, we will notice on the left side at first a wide footpath which ascends in the forest (turn-off isn't marked). We continue on the mentioned path, which soon crosses a lane of bushes and immediately and then it brings us to a crossing, where we continue on the right path. Further, we are ascending on a footpath which after a short ascent brings us to a forest road which we follow to the left (unmarked).
After a minute or two of walking on the road, we come to a marked crossing, where we continue right on a marked footpath. The path ahead at first gently ascends among site of wild garlic, and then it starts ascending steeper and steeper. A relatively steep path, which all the time run through the forest, higher brings us to a short part, that is exposed to falling stones. Further, the path ascends even steeper, and then turns to the left, where the steepness decreases. Next follows only few minutes of easy walking and the path brings us to a forest road which we follow to the right. The road which immediately passes out of the forest on the western edge of the mountain pasture Dol we follow approximately 5 minutes, to a marked crossing, where we continue left in the direction of Konj (right Velika planina).
The path ahead moderately ascends through a meadow, and then passes into the forest, where it turns to the right and starts gradually ascending steeper and steeper. Next follows approximately 20 minutes of a steep ascent through the forest and then the path brings us to a smaller viewpoint. Here the path turns left and also flattens a little. We continue on a moderately steep path, where from a thinner forest we soon pass into a lane of dwarf pines. A short ascent follows on a well-beaten path through dwarf pines and the path brings us on the mountain pasture Rzenik, by the edge of which we notice a shepherd hut.
At the hut we leave the marked path which leads on Konj and we go a little left and walk on the western partly overgrown part of the mountain pasture. Here we will among dwarf pines notice a poorly beaten footpath which leads into dense lane of dwarf pines, through which leads otherwise cutted, but with high grass vegetated footpath. A moderately steep path, is gradually turning more and more towards the left, after that, when it reaches the ridge it turns to the right and after few minutes of additional walking brings us on a grassy peak.
