Access to starting point:
From the motorway Ljubljana - Jesenice, we take the exit Radovljica (from the Gorenjska side, exit Lesce) and follow the road ahead in the direction of Begunje. At the end of the village Begunje, we turn right towards Tržič but continue on the road to a smaller intersection, where a macadam road joins from the right. We park at an appropriate place at the intersection.
We can also reach the starting point from the direction of Tržič.
Path description:
From the starting point, we carefully cross the road, then head onto the marked footpath that leads to Dobrča (the start of the path is not marked). The path first ascends through dense forest, then levels out and crosses slopes to the right. A short descent follows and the path brings us to a cart track, which we follow to the left. The cart track immediately starts to ascend, and at junctions we follow it in the direction indicated by the blazes. A little further, the path from Slatna joins from the right, and we continue straight towards Dobrča. The path ahead ascends moderately to steeply through the forest, and we only occasionally cross a panoramic slope. Higher up, we cross the forest road a few times, then join a somewhat wider path that leads from Hudi Graben. Further on, we continue ascending through the forest, and the marked path crosses the forest road leading to the Koča na Dobrči a few more times. After a while, the path turns slightly to the right and ascends somewhat more steeply. Crossing a grazing fence follows, and the path brings us out of the forest, from where the mountain hut is only a few dozen steps away.
Near the Koča na Dobrči, signs for the Dobrča summit direct us onto the forest road, along which we begin to descend gently towards the north. After a short descent, we notice signposts directing us right to Podgorska planina, whose huts we bypass on the right side. Next, we ascend over a panoramic grassy slope, then the path enters first sparse forest, increasingly dense higher up. When the gradient eases, two paths join from the right, and in both cases we continue straight. The path ahead rises more steeply again and after a few minutes of further walking brings us to the summit of Dobrča.
