Access to starting point:
A) We drive to Bled, and then we continue driving in the direction of Pokljuka. When we get to Zatrnik, we don't park on a parking lot by inn Gostilna Zatrnik, but about 100 meters ahead on a parking lot on the right side of the road. Parking on a parking lot in front of the inn is only for guests of the inn Gostilna Zatrnik (pr Jagru).
B) We leave Gorenjska highway at exit Lipce, and then we follow the signs for settlement Kočna and later Spodnje Gorje. In Spodnje Gorje we join the road from Bled, and we continue in the direction of Pokljuka. When we get to Zatrnik, we don't park on a parking lot by inn Gostilna Zatrnik, but about 100 meters ahead on a parking lot on the right side of the road. Parking on a parking lot in front of the inn is only for guests of the inn Gostilna Zatrnik (pr Jagru).
Path description:
From the parking lot by the main road, we descend to the parking lot by inn Pr Jagru, and we look for the beginning of the path into a smaller valley, where in the winter time there are two children's ski lifts. We continue by the ski slope or ski track Bambi (right ski lift), and after the ski lift ends, we continue with an ascent on the route of a former ski track. The path continues on a ski track, and higher it is turning more and more to the left. Soon steep ski track branches off to the left, and we continue on less steep right ski track. When route of a former ski track for some time even more flattens, the footpath branches off to the right, which descends through a narrow lane of a forest and then it brings us on a swampy meadow. We continue through a meadow to the near cottage, where we step on a wider cart track.
From the cottage, we continue left in the forest and on a cart track we diagonally ascend to a macadam road which we follow to the right. On the road, we at first slightly descend, after that the road continues with some shorter ascents and descents, while walking on the road we cross the route of a marked path Bled (Zaka) - Pokljuka.
A little further a nice view opens up on Bled lake, and the road further is mostly gently to moderately ascending. When after longer right turn road brings us on a meadow, still before the feeding site we leave it and we continue right on often quite rough cart track. On first crossing of cart tracks we choose the left, and on the second right branch, in both cases wider cart track. When the cart track flattens, slightly left from the cart track we notice a footpath which continues parallel above cart track. Some 10 strides ahead from the right also joins another footpath which from the cart track branches off a little further, and on a footpath which runs through the forest, we continue to a smaller saddle, where we join the other cart track, and there we quickly ascend to a macadam road which we follow to the left. While walking on the road from the left joins the marked path from Bohinjska Bela - path over Slamniki. Here few steps ahead, only a little before memorial NOB, in the direction of straight or slightly towards the left path on few minutes distant Turn (1249 meters) branches off, and we continue right on a marked path which continues on the road.
At the next crossing, which is located not far away, we leave the road and we continue left in the direction of Galetovec (straight Belska planina).
The path ahead leads us on a pleasant cart track which after few minutes we leave because signs for Galetovec point us to the left, on at first poorly noticeably footpath which descends by the edge of the forest to a smaller valley, where passes into the forest. Through the forest, we follow the blazes and the forest path, on which in few minutes we ascend on a panoramic peak.
