Ski hotel Vogel - Dom na Komni

Access to starting point:
From highway Ljubljana - Jesenice we go to the exit Lesce and follow the road towards Bled and forward towards Bohinjska Bistrica. We continue driving towards the lake Bohinj (Ribčev laz), where we come to a crossroad, where we continue straight on the left (south) side of the lake in the direction of Ukanc and waterfall Savica. We follow this road to the bottom station of the cable car on Vogel, then we buy a ticket and go with a cableway to the upper station, which is the starting point for our tour.

Path description:
At Ski Hotel we go right (towards the west) and we continue on a macadam road which goes past the mountain hut Merjasec. The road starts slightly descending and it brings us to a crossroad. We go on the right road following the signs »Komna, Sirarna Zadnji Vogel«. The road is still slightly descending and we are soon at a crossing again. This time we go to the left road following the signs »Pl Zadnji Vogel, Komna«. Already after few ten meters of ascent a sign on rock (Vogel) point us on a footpath which goes right in the forest. The path through the forest runs parallel with the road and starts slightly descending. When we again join the road we continue by following the signs »Pl. Zadnji Vogel«. The road then crosses a cableway Zadnji Vogel and it brings us to a crossing at the cheese cottage Zadnji Vogel. We continue straight past cheese cottage and we follow the signs »Komna« (left path on Vogel branches off). The path then through dwarf pines it brings us into the forest and again starts descending a little. The path which runs into a valley towards the hotel Zlatorog branches off to the right, and we continue on the left path, which soon brings us out of the forest and nice views open up on surrounding peaks. The path here starts ascending again and runs mostly on a grassy terrain surrounded by rare dwarf pines. The path slowly starts turn-off to the left and it brings us to a crossing. Left leads the path towards the saddle Globoko (1828m), and we continue right towards the saddle Konjsko sedlo. Here we start ascending on the left side of the valley, and view is the most beautiful on Konjski vrh and Bohinjski Migovec. When we reach the saddle we continue right following the signs »Komna«, left leads the path towards Vogel. The path from the saddle starts descending and crosses slopes on the west side of Bohinjskega Migovca (1901m). We are soon at the crossing again. Left leads the path towards Škrbina (1910m) and forward towards the mountain hut Koča na Planini Razor, and we continue to the right on a mostly grassy terrain surrounded by rare dwarf pines. The path turns a little to the right and dwarf pines is becoming more dense. We are still slightly descending and on the right side a wonderful view opens up towards Lake Bohinj. Here the path turns to the left and again starts slightly ascending through dwarf pines. We soon come again to a crossing where we go right following the signs »Komna 45min«, left leads the path towards the mountain pasture Govnjač. Next follows few shorter ascents and descents on a narrow footpath. Surroundings is here very overgrown and also there isn't much view. When we come again to a crossing we go right and then follows only few minutes of ascent to the mountain hut.
