Access to starting point:
From highway Ljubljana - Jesenice we go to the exit Kranj - vzhod and follow the road ahead in the direction of Jezersko. In Zgornje Jezersko only a little behind the gas station, we will notice a road which from the main road branches off to the right (direction lake Planšarsko jezero). The road then leads us past the mentioned lake and behind it for a short time steeply ascends. Higher, the road flattens and at the beginning of a large meadow loses an asphalt covering. At the end of the a meadow is a smaller parking lot by the road, where we park.
Path description:
Near the parking lot, we notice signs for mountain hut Češka koča. Cart track quickly brings us into the forest, where it is only barely ascending. After few minutes walk we come to a crossing, where we continue on the right more steep cart track. Which quickly changes into a steep footpath which is ascending by the torrent upwards. A little higher, the path crosses a torrent and continues to ascend nearby. The steepness then decreases and the path brings us on abandoned mountain pasture Štularjeva planina.
The path then goes again in the forest and from the left joins the path from bottom station of a cargo cableway. Only few ten meters ahead from the right joins the path from neighbouring valley Makekova Kočna. After that, the path passes out of the forest on steep slopes, which are very well secured. Also without fixed safety gear path isn't very difficult. The more and more scenic path then over a ladder soon brings us into a valley Mrzla dolina. Here through an indistinct small valley cold air is descending. In the morning we can notice, that on this spot is a little colder (in windy weather there is no difference). Further, follows only few minutes of easy walking to the mountain hut Češka koča.
From the mountain hut, we continue right on the path in the direction of Kočna, Grintovec and Vratca (left mounain hut Kranjska koča through Žrelo). After a short ascent, we come on flat ground with sign H (intended for landing a helicopter). The path ahead runs on at first gentle scree, which is partly covered with dwarf pines. In the lower part of the scree path on Vratca branches off to the right, and we continue straight in the direction of Kočna and Grintovec. After approximately half an hour of walking from the mountain hut, we come to the next crossing. We continue right in the direction of Kočna (left Grintovec over Mlinarsko sedlo) and we are still ascending on partly vegetated scree to Zgornje Ravni. On Zgornje Ravni path turns sharply right and it ascends over the scree. Higher, the path which continues to turning right brings us on a side ridge of central Grintovci. Here a nice view opens up towards the north, where we clearly see most of the peaks, which surround Jezersko. Here, where we turn sharply left starts the climbing part of the path. Well secured and in dry not very demanding climbing path with nice views and past a natural window, which we will notice on the right side, after almost three hours of walking from Češka koča brings us on the main ridge of Grintovci (notch Zdolška škrbina), where there is a crossing. We continue left in the direction of Grintovec (right Jezerska Kočna) on the path which is still technically demanding. Relatively well-secured path higher brings us to the next crossing, where we continue right towards the summit of Grintovec (left saddle Mlinarsko sedlo). This panoramic and occasionally quite exposed path we then follow to the summit.
Ravenska Kočna - Češka koča 1:30, Češka Češka koča - Mlinarsko sedlo 2:45, Mlinarsko sedlo - Summit 1:00.
