Planina pod Golico - Jeseniška planina

Access to starting point:
From the highway Ljubljana - Jesenice, we take the exit Lipce (also possible Hrušica) and follow the road ahead in the direction of Jesenice, where signs for Planina pod Golico direct us onto an ascending road (the turn-off is marked and is located at the health center in Jesenice). The relatively steep road soon brings us to the mentioned village, where in May we can admire the blooming of daffodils on the surrounding meadows. We park on one of the parking lots at the foot of the ski center Španov vrh.

Path description:
From the parking lot, we continue on the asphalt road, which after a few minutes of walking brings us to a marked crossroads, where we continue left downhill in the direction of Rožce (straight Golica, right Španov vrh). We continue on the road which past the church of the Holy Cross brings us to an unmarked crossroads (by the cross), where we continue right. The path ahead leads us past a few houses, and then we soon notice signposts which direct us left onto a footpath.
The path ahead ascends along a quite muddy cart track, then transitions into a dense forest, where it continues on and alongside the cart track. The path is poorly visible in places, running all the time through the forest, and brings us higher to a forest road, which we only cross. We continue the ascent on a wide cart track, which first ascends alongside the clearing, then returns into the forest.
The cart track, which is becoming worse, then quickly brings us to a smaller, usually swampy clearing, where it ends.
Here, a little to the right, we will notice already quite faded marking, which directs us onto a poorly visible and somewhat steeper footpath for a short time. Soon the path brings us onto a wide ridge, where it widens. We continue the ascent along the mentioned ridge, which is surrounded by a grazing fence. Along the grazing fence we ascend only a few dozen steps, then the markings direct us left downhill.
Follows a gentle traverse descent along the path, which runs through initially dense spruce forest. The path then flattens, crosses two successive streams and then brings us to a poorly maintained forest road (road from Plavški Rovt). We follow the mentioned road, which partly runs through the forest, partly across grassy hay meadows (the road has some marked shortcuts), all the way to Jeseniška planina, from which a nice view opens up.
