Access to starting point:
From the highway Ljubljana - Jesenice we take the exit Podnart (Ljubelj), and then we continue driving on the fast road towards Ljubelj and Tržič. When the fast road ends, we will notice a gas station on the right side, in front of which we turn right downwards towards Tržič. Further, we drive through Tržič, and we follow the narrower road towards Dovžanova soteska and then through the villages Dolina and Jelendol to the hamlet Medvodje. Here at the first crossroad, we continue left in the direction of Košutnik, Dolga njiva, Košutnikov turn, Šija, Kofce and Veliki vrh. Further, we drive on an ascending macadam road, on which we arrive at a crossroad at Košutnik (house nearby). From the crossroad at an altitude of 1080 meters we continue right, and we drive on a somewhat worse macadam road to the parking lot at some sort of quarry or slide.
Path description:
From the parking lot, we head onto the cart track that branches off left from the road. The cart track goes into the forest and ascends moderately, first crossing a smaller and then a larger stream. The cart track, which has some shortcuts, makes some turns and after good 15 minutes brings us to the pastures of the mountain pasture Spodnja Dolga njiva.
After a short walk across the mountain pasture, the path brings us to a junction, where there are signposts.
We continue left in the direction of Košutnikov turn and Kofce (straight to the mountain dairy on mountain pasture Spodnja Dolga njiva 1 minute) on the path that ascends transversely into the forest. When we step into the forest we first cross a grazing fence, then in a few minutes we arrive at the next junction.
This time we continue straight (sharply right Košutnikov turn) and continue on the trail that towards the left crosses occasionally steeper slopes of Košuta. Further, the path leads us over some panoramic slopes and continues with some shorter ascents and descents. When the path after some time gradually enters dense forest it splits into two parts.
We continue on the right marked path in the direction of Kofce (straight Tegošče - cottage), which temporarily ascends more steeply, then brings us to a cart track, which passes onto a larger clearing. We continue across the clearing and follow the signs for Kofce. On the other side of the clearing we cross a narrow strip of forest, then arrive at the panoramic ridge north of the nearby Kisovec (1563 m). Here we continue first right, then slightly left to the west side of the ridge. A crossing through the forest follows, then the path turns right and brings us past a trough with water to the northeastern edge of Tegoška planina.
The panoramic path bypasses the mountain pasture along the upper right edge, then brings us to a grazing fence, which we cross and on the other side step onto the edge of the neighboring Pungratska planina.
Here an unmarked border path branches off to the right, leading towards mountain pasture Šija, and we continue straight or slightly left on the marked path, which continues across expansive pastures. A few minutes of easy descent follows and the path brings us past undulating meadows to the shepherd's hut on mountain pasture Pungrat.
From mountain pasture Pungrat we continue on the marked path in the direction of Dom na Kofcah and mountain pasture Šija (right Škrbina), which first crosses a smaller undulating meadow, then passes onto an ascending macadam road. The road on which we continue the ascent first ascends gently, then turns somewhat to the left and ascends transversely towards the side ridge of Košuta. When we reach the indistinct ridge a nice view opens towards Storžič and surrounding mountains, then the road turns right and gradually flattens completely. A few more minutes of easy walking follow and the path brings us to Zavetišče na planini Šija.
From the shelter we continue on the marked path towards Kofce, which quickly descends to the nearby cart track, which we follow to the right. The cart track soon begins to descend and brings us in a few minutes to mountain pasture Ilovica.
On the other side of the mountain pasture the path passes into a very narrow strip of forest, behind which we step onto a clearing. In the middle of the clearing we arrive at a marked junction, where straight ahead the path continues towards the nearby chapel, and we continue slightly right onto the usually quite wet trail, on which we ascend transversely to the mountain dairy on Kofce and then to the mountain hut a few meters away.
