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. We then follow the macadam road to a larger marked parking lot.
Path description:
From the parking lot, we continue on a macadam road following the signs »Češka koča, Ledine« and after approximately 15 minutes of walking, we come to a cargo cableway.
From the former parking lot at the cargo cableway we go on the path which goes between the both cableways (bottom station of a cargo cableway on the mountain hut Kranjska koča in June 2015 burned down) and then slightly upwards. The path soon leaves the forest and continues through dwarf pines. After some time, the path brings us to a gully named Žrelo. Here we are at the crossing, where we continue left (straight path through Žrelo), and the path then immediately becomes climbing. The path is well secured, but still caution is needed because of wet rocks. The path over shorter wall is in some parts also quite exposed, but full of nice views. When we climb this part, the path returns in dwarf pines, through which we are then ascending on a well-made path. We continue relatively steeply upwards and soon from the right joins the path through Žrelo. From here to the mountain hut Kranjska koča we have only few 10 strides of easy walking.
From the mountain hut, we continue left towards the east in the direction of Ledinski vrh, Mrzla gora and Rinke. The path which is at first quite gentle in few minutes brings us to a crossing, where we go on the right path (left climbing path on Babe). The path ahead only slightly becomes steeper and it brings us to a little harder passage over rocky passage. Here is a steel cable for help, but the passage in dry isn't difficult. The path then brings us on a wide slopes below Ledinski vrh from which there is a nice view towards the glacier below Skuta, which we can see on the right side. The path then in a moderate ascent brings us on a saddle Jezersko sedlo, which borders on neighbouring Austria. From the saddle Jezersko sedlo we continue right in the direction of saddle Savinjsko sedlo, which we reach after approximately 15 minutes of diagonal walking. From this saddle we descend towards Okrešelj. After few minutes of descent, we come to a smaller emergency bivouac, where write in inscription book (bivouac Bivak pod Mrzlim vrhom). And we are still descending and we soon come to a crossing, where right on the scree upwards climbing path on Koroška Rinka branches off, and we still continue downwards. And soon left at the altitude 1700m path branches off on Mrzla gora. The path at first ascends through rare dwarf pines and then brings us to a traverse over a rocky plate. Here we put on a helmet, because the path ahead is very crumbly and exposed to falling stones. From the traverse path brings us into a gully which we only cross. Now we come into a climbing part of the path. The path is at the beginning well-secured, but the fixed safety gear soon vanishes. Next follows unsecured ascent on a slope in a shape of a pyramid. Because this part of the path is very steep, watch out for falling stones. Before we step on the top of the pyramid we have a feeling, that there is the summit. But when we step on the "top" we see, that this isn't the case. Next follows a very exposed crossing of a narrow ledge without fixed safety gear. At the end of this ledge path turns left on a moderately steep wall straight upwards (without fixed safety gear). Then we walk on the ridge, which is in parts quite exposed. After that, the path turns a little to the right and in 30 minutes on a quite steep terrain brings us to the summit.
The path is very demanding and poorly secured. A helmet is mandatory.
