Access to starting point:
We leave Gorenjska highway at exit Radovljica or Lesce, and then we follow the signs for Begunje na Gorenjskem. When we get to Begunje na Gorenjskem, at first we still follow the signs for Tržič and Draga, and after the hospital we turn left in the direction of recreation center Krpin, to which we get to after approximately 100 meters of additional driving. We park on a large parking lot by the mentioned recreation center.
Path description:
Behind the bar Krpin, which is situated by the parking lot there starts a well-beaten path which leads towards the church of St. Peter on Gora. The path at first runs on a gentle cart track, and then passes on the right side of the ski slope, where it is ascending by the edge of the forest. Further, we are for some time relatively steeply ascending, and then the path after the shepherd hut for some time flattens a little. A little further, on the upper part of the ski slope, the path turns right and continues on a cart track. From the cart track, we soon go left on a steep path, and after few minutes we return on a worse cart track.
When we again reach the cart track we follow it to the left, and it quickly brings us out of the forest, where in front of us we already see the church of St. Peter, to which separates us a short moderate ascent with increasingly beautiful views.
From the church, we continue right in the direction of Sankaška koča, and the path ahead leads us on a wide and gentle cart track which runs right from the airfield and viewpoint. When the cart track goes into the forest we continue on the left cart track, and there we continue in a gentle ascent. In the last part becomes a cart track a little steeper, and we quickly reach Sankaška koča, from which a nice view opens up on Julian Alps.
From the mountain hut, we continue in the direction of Begunjščica, mountain hut Roblekov dom, mountain pasture Poljška planina and Završnik, where we at first steeply ascend, and then we continue in a gentle descent to the near private cottage, which we bypass on the right side. Next follows a relatively short ascent, and then we get to the hunting cottage LD Stol - Žirovnica. Here from the nearby viewpoint a nice view opens up on Gorenjska and Julian Alps, and the path returns into the forest and continues on a cart track. At the crossings, we follow the blazes, and for some time we also leave the cart tracks. When we return on a cart track, the terrain gradually flattens, and from the marked path on part, where the path on Smokuški vrh branches off to the left, we continue right.
After few steps, we reach the turning point of the nearby forest road, and from the turning point we continue right on a cart track which slightly descends, and then it starts lightly ascending. Here a view opens up a little on Karawanks, cart track which gradually passes on the slopes of Pleče, starts moderately ascending. When we are ascending diagonally, best still before the end of the cart track, we continue right, where there are several worse footpaths, and on one of them we ascend on an indistinct ridge and there on a little better visible footpath on the nearby peak.
The starting point - Sveti Peter 0:40, Sveti Peter - Sankaška koča 0:10, Sankaška koča - Pleče 0:55.
