Stržišče - Črna prst (circular path)

Access to starting point:
On the road Idrija-Tolmin we turn towards Podbrdo. A little further from Hudajužna the road branches off to the left towards Stržišče where we leave the car. Of course we can also come from the other side from Sorica.

Path description:
In Stržišče the path starts on the left side, if we are facing towards Črna prst. We head towards Rutarski gozd along the forest road which is occasionally marked and signposted with signboards. The path is at the same time also the Slovenian geological trail. In Rutarski gozd we come to the road, which slowly changes into a wide mostly rocky cart track. The path brings us to the hunting observatory and then soon to a junction, where we continue right in the direction of Rodica. Further, we ascend on a relatively well-preserved mule track first through the forest and then through dwarf pines. Moderately steep and increasingly scenic path. A little higher the path brings us to a side ridge of the Spodnje Bohinjske gore, from where a nice view opens up towards Kneške Ravne. The path from the ridge soon turns to the south slopes, which we then follow to the spot where we join the path from the Bohinj side. We continue right on a panoramic ridge path, which in about 10 minutes of additional walking brings us to the panoramic summit of Rodica. From Stržišče to Rodica we need 4 hours.
We then continue the path along the panoramic ridge in the direction of Črna prst. The path along the ridge lasts at least 2 hours. This is followed by the descent from Črna prst to Stržišče or Kal. These two villages are indeed very close and connected by a road.
