Access to starting point:
From the highway Ljubljana - Jesenice we take the exit Lipce (also possible Hrušica) and we follow the road ahead in the direction of Jesenice, where signs for Planina pod Golico direct us onto an ascending road. The relatively steep road soon brings us to the mentioned village, where in May on the surrounding meadows we can admire the blooming of daffodils. From Planina pod Golico we drive ahead to the next crossroads, where we notice numerous mountaineering signposts. Here we continue right and we drive a good 50 meters to the parking lot below the Savske jame.
Route description:
At the beginning of the parking lot we notice the mountaineering signs, which direct us left along the asphalt road upwards. After a short ascent, the path brings us to the agrotourism Betel and behind it to a crossroads, where we continue right in the direction of Golica. After a few more minutes of walking along the road, we reach the hut pri Fencu. Here be careful, as just a few steps ahead a wide marked path branches off to the right, leading to Golica.
The path ahead ascends over a shorter meadow behind which we enter pleasant shade through which the path continues. After approximately half an hour of walking we step onto a macadam road, which we follow to the right, but only to the lower station of the cargo cableway.
From the cableway we continue towards the mountain hut Koča na Golici along a path that ascends quite steeply through increasingly sparse forest. After a good hour of walking the path brings us out of the forest onto bare slopes from which we already see the hut ahead. A little further we reach a junction, where we continue left (right Struška, Markljev and Pusti Rovt). We follow this path, steep in the last section, to the hut.
From the hut we continue the ascent northwards along initially gentle then steep grassy slopes. After a good 20 minutes of ascent the steepness eases and the path brings us to a junction.
We continue right (left Golica 10 minutes) and ascend easier pathless terrain to the summit visible ahead. After approximately 10 minutes of ascent we reach the bare summit.

Discussion about the trip Planina pod Golico - Krvavka

There is also the Jesenice-Javorniški
rovt path. You drive to the Pristava hut in Javorniški rovt and then on the gravel road
to Suhega sedlo where we park, when we reach
the monument from WWII we spot the border stone between Republic of Slovenia and Austria. There is a nice view of Austrian
Carinthia. From there it's 7 min. walk to Krvavka
and 48 min. walk to Golica.

hiker alex, this is unfortunately a somewhat unfortunate description..
Suha sedlo usually doesn't serve as a starting point, as it has no parking lot or space for more cars, so the start in the mentioned direction should at least be from Pustega rovta, if not from Križovec.
From the saddle- 1439, to Krvavka- 1785, 7 min. walk is by no means enough, the altitude difference alone indicates that.. Not even Mala Golica- 1646 is that close, which you probably confused with Krvavka.
If anything, half an hour to Krvavka, one hour to Golica, that's closer to reality, although even this estimate is too modest for many hikers.

We went to Golica in spring, via the trail described by mountaineer alex. At Sedlo Suha there was parking for at least 10 cars. For those with less fitness who don't like crowds on the classic trail during narcissus blooming time, this is an excellent starting point.
Walking time is of course relative, but nevertheless - we don't burst with fitness and it took us more than an hour to Golica  .

I forgot to write that we went from Pristava to Sedlo Suha on foot and that the cars were possibly getting on our nerves, but nevertheless...

Already soon on the road from Križovec there is a barrier, a little later before Pusti Rovt another one, which indicates that the road is not intended for tourism, but for the needs of the alpine pasture and forestry. Therefore, I wouldn't talk about a starting point at this place.., as it might happen that the barrier is closed on the way back. And we don't all have keys, as we know.
For those with less fitness, I recommend only the "ascent" from Planina pod Golico to Fenc, or to Pristava from Javornik..
