Access to starting point:
We drive to Kamnik and follow the road ahead towards the valley of Kamniška Bistrica. From the hut in Kamniška Bistrica we continue driving on the forest road which higher brings us to a crossroad, where we continue straight (right Jermanca, starting point for saddle Kamniško sedlo). The road then past the boulder Žagana peč brings us to the parking lot at the bottom cargo cableway station to a saddle Kokrsko sedlo.
Driving from the mountain hut in Kamniška Bistrica to the parking lot V Koncu is now forbidden (traffic sign), this extends the path for a little less than an hour.
Path description:
From the parking lot at the cargo cableway we go on at first gentle footpath in the direction of saddle Kokrsko sedlo. The path at first crosses a lane of bushes, and then passes into a dense forest, where it starts ascending steeper. Higher forest becomes a little thinner, so that a view opens up a little on surrounding peaks. The path which is still steeply ascending, higher brings us to two successive steel cables (in dry entirely undemanding), behind which we come to a pleasant resting place with a bench.
The path ahead returns into a dense forest and then it starts turning towards the right, where for a short time also steepness of the path decreases. The path a little further passes out of the forest, crosses an indistinct ditch and then it brings us on avalanche slopes below the saddle Kokrsko sedlo. Here the path turns a little to the left and starts ascending steeply on mostly rocky slope. Considerably strenuous path (because of the gravel), that runs below the mountain walls of Kalška gora on the left and less known Mali vrh on the right, with increasingly beautiful views, finally brings us to the mountain hut Cojzova koča na Kokrskem sedlu.
From the saddle, we continue left on a marked path in the direction of Kalški greben and Krvavec. The path ahead at first continues on and by the ridge and then it brings us to a crumbly gully, after which we ascend over slightly exposed passage. The path ahead ascends steeper, and then passes on the scree of Kalška gora (here at the beginning of scree we will notice old climbing path on Kalška gora, which has been for many years abandoned). Next follows traversing of scree (in the early summer possible snow fields), and then the path turns left into a wall, where it very steeply ascends. During the ascent on a relatively crumbly wall we get help from fixed safety gear (mostly iron spikes) and numerous holds. Mountain wall higher flattens a little and the path after few minutes of additional walking brings us on a smaller saddle, where there is a crossing.
From the small saddle, from which a nice view opens up on Kalce, we continue left in the direction of Kalška gora (slightly right Krvavec, right Kalški greben). The path ahead passes on a steep and mainly in wet for slipping dangerous grassy slopes. This further relatively gently sloping path, we then follow all the way to Kalška gora, which we reach after good 5 minutes of additional walking.
