Access to starting point:
From the highway Ljubljana - Jesenice we take the exit Lesce and follow the road ahead in the direction of Žirovnica and Jesenice. After a few kilometers of driving, we will get to a crossroad, where the road to Žirovnica and Moste branches off to the right (from the direction of Jesenice, left). Only a few meters ahead in the next crossroad, we turn left to Moste (right to Žirovnica). Further, we drive past a monument to fallen fighters, where the road starts ascending a hill below the railway track. On top of the slope, we turn right (at the sign Vila Karin), and then we drive towards Završniško jezero and Valvasorjev dom. The road then flattens and brings us to a crossroad, where the road towards Valvasorjev dom branches off to the left, and we continue straight. Further, the road leads past a well-maintained parking lot, and the asphalt road soon becomes macadam. The macadam road, which is asphalted on some steep sections, brings us higher to a smaller crossroad, where we continue straight in the direction of Zelenica and Roblek (right road leads towards the saddle Kališča). The road then crosses a grazing fence and only a little further brings us to the cottage (Pri žagi). We continue driving on the again steeper road, by which we soon notice signs for Poljška planina and Roblek, which point us sharply right. Because by the signposts there isn't an appropriate parking spot, we drive a good 50 meters higher and then park on an appropriate place by the road.
Path description:
From the starting point, we return on the macadam road to the nearby signposts for Poljška planina and Roblek, and from there we continue on the initially parallel mountain path. The path ahead descends to a smaller stream, crosses it, and then passes to the western slopes of Begunjščica, where it first crosses moderately steep slopes. We continue the crossing towards the right, where we quickly arrive at very steep slopes, across which we ascend diagonally. The continuation of the path is not the most pleasant, as the poorly maintained path leads us over a very steep slope that is dangerous for slipping (especially when wet). Above the exposed section, the path and slope flatten, and we continue with the crossing. The path, which continues through the forest, gradually moves to steeper slopes again. A few more minutes of crossing follow, then we move to the southwestern slopes, where the slope visibly flattens. After a short ascent on a less steep slope, we arrive at a small junction, where the path to the NOB monument branches off to the right downwards, and we continue straight on the path that moderately ascends through the forest. Higher up, we join a cart track, which we follow to the right, and descend along it in a few minutes to Tomčeva koča on Poljška planina.
From Tomčeva koča we continue right following the signs for Roblekov dom and continue the ascent on the path that enters the forest. The path through the forest ascends moderately and soon brings us to the place where several logs are stacked for heating Roblekov dom. If we feel like it and have enough strength, we can carry a log to the hut (they will be very grateful to us).
Higher, the forest on the path becomes sparser, and the path steeper. From the wide and well-made path, which is quite muddy after rain, nice views occasionally open up. The path then turns slightly to the left and brings us to the place where the path from Prevala joins from the right.
We continue on the left path, which after another 10 minutes of diagonal ascent brings us to the mountain hut.
