Access to starting point:
We leave Gorenjska highway at exit Hrušica and follow the road ahead in the direction of Kranjska Gora. Just a little before the village Dovje the road which goes to Mojstrana (Vrata, Kot and Krma) branches off to the left. We follow the road ahead in the direction of valley Vrata and we drive on that road to the large parking lot near Aljažev dom.
Path description:
From the parking lot, we continue on a macadam road which after 3 minutes of walking brings us to a crossing at Aljažev dom. We continue right in the direction of Škrlatica and Dolkova špica on the path which through a meadow leads into the forest. Further, we are ascending on at first a gentle cart track which higher changes into a little steeper footpath. The path soon brings us to a riverbed of a torrent, by which it is ascending only for a short time, and then it turns right and steeply ascends through the forest. The path is then turning towards the left, where it crosses a short avalanche slope, and then it gradually passes on the slopes below Stenar. Further, we are ascending on the mentioned slopes, which are slightly covered with dwarf pines and individual larches. Higher, the path brings us to a smaller crossing, where we continue right in the direction of Škrlatica (left Stenar on an unmarked path through Stenarska vratca). The path ahead is ascending only for a short time, and then the path flattens and it brings us to a bigger crossing, where we continue left in the direction of the mountain hut Pogačnikov dom and bivouac Bivak na Rušju (right Škrlatica). The marked path bypasses the bivouac on the right side and behind it for a short time steeply ascends. Further, the steepness decreases and the path leads us on karst terrain, which is full of abysses, cracks and caves. Nice high mountain path, which offers nice views mainly on surrounding peaks, higher brings us to the next crossing. We continue right in the direction of Škrlatica and Dolkova špica (Left Križ, Pogačnikov dom and Krnica) on the path which crosses slopes below the walls of Gubno and Dovški Gamsovec almost horizontal. After approximately 30 minutes of additional walking, the path starts ascending on a crumbly gravel terrain towards the steep notch Rdeča škrbina, which is situated between Dolkova špica and less known Rogljica.
We continue right in the direction of Dolkova špica (straight downwards Škrlatica) on the path which ascends on and by the upper ridge of the mountain. After 15 minutes on parts quite steep path we reach a panoramic peak.
