Access to starting point:
First, we drive to Kamnik, and then we continue driving in the direction of the mountain pass Črnivec. Only few 100 meters before the mentioned mountain pass we notice signs for Kranjski Rak, which point us sharply left on a narrow and at first also quite steep road. The road higher flattens and then brings us to a mountain pass Volovjek, where immediately behind the inn Kranjski Rak we turn left on a road in the direction of Velika planina. Further, we drive on a macadam road which higher brings us to the next little bigger crossroad. We continue right (straight mountain pasture Kisovec) and we follow moderately ascending road past the parking lot Ušivec. From the mentioned parking lot we continue on a little rough macadam road which at the crossroads we follow in the direction of the mountain pasture Planina Dol. After a time the road starts steep descending, and we follow it to a marked parking lot near the mountain pasture Planina Dol.
From the valley Savinjska dolina at first we drive to Luče, and then we continue driving towards Kamnik. When we come on the mountain pass Volovjek (Kranjski Rak) we continue right in the direction of Velika planina. Further, we follow the description above.
Path description:
From the parking lot, we continue on a macadam road which is barely noticeably descending towards the western part of the mountain pasture. After few minutes of easy walking we will on the left side notice a shepherd hut, and we continue on a macadam road for few 10 meters ahead, to the spot, where on a tree we notice signs for Konj, which point us right through a meadow (left Velika planina, straight valley Kamniška Bistrica - bottom cableway station on 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 over in a lane of dwarf pines. A short ascent follows on a well-beaten path through dwarf pines and the path brings us on a 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 part of partly overgrown 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.
