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:
From the starting point, we continue on the asphalt road which is lightly ascending and past a religious symbol in few minutes brings us to water plant Mravlinc, where it is also possible to park. Here on the asphalt road we cross the bridge and we ascend to the last house, where the road becomes a macadam and turns right. Only a little further, we get to a crossroad, where the path branches off to the left, which leads to the church of St. Peter, and we continue straight and past the water catchment we get to the next crossroad, where another path branches off to the left (road), which leads towards the church of St. Peter and Sankaška koča, and we continue straight, on the road which brings us in gorge of the stream Blatnica. At first, we are ascending above the scenic stream and then we gradually get very close to riverbed. Further, the path leads us past another waterfall of Blatnica, and then the path splits.
We continue left on a wider cart track which continues through the forest and which leads us by the torrent stream (straight path which runs by the stream Globoki potok). Next follows a little steeper ascent, and at the crossings we follow the wider path, which higher brings us to a crossing on the saddle Kališča, where we also reach a marked path Sveti Peter - Poljška planina.
We continue left in the direction towards Sveti Peter and we start ascending parallel with the macadam road which higher, a little before it ends we also reach. On the part, where we reach the road we continue left and we leave the marked path, and in few steps we get to the turning point of the forest road.
From the turning point, we continue left 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. Description and pictures refer to a condition in the year 2019 (September and October).
On the way: Soteska Blatnice (800m), Kališča (980m)
