Bistrica pri Tržiču - Bistriška planina

Access to starting point:
From highway Ljubljana - Jesenice we go to the exit Ljubelj and follow the road ahead in the direction of Tržič. Just before the gas station at Tržič we turn right (direction Tržič) and then immediately left (direction Begunje). Soon after Bistrica pri Tržiču a macadam road towards Vila Bistrica branches off sharply to the right. Here we turn right and then we park on an appropriate place by the road.

Path description:
From the crossroad, we continue on a macadam road in the direction of Vila Bistrica. The road, that is gently ascending in few minutes brings us on asphalt, where we get to a crossroad, by which there is a chapel.
Immediately behind the chapel we continue sharply left on a cart track which on the left side bypasses the nearby residential house (nearby we notice also signposts for Dobrča and Bistriška planina). Cart track quickly passes into the forest and relatively steeply ascends to some sort of the ridge, from which occasionally a view opens up a little towards Kriška gora and Gorenjska. When the ridge ends we continue on the right cart track which returns into forest, we walk there to more grassy part (area named Na planincah).
Further cart track is occasionally relatively steeply ascending, and then it brings us to more successive crossings, where it flattens. At the crossings, we carefully follow the blazes, which eventually from the cart track divert on a forest footpath. Quite gently sloping path then in few minutes brings us to mounain pasture Bistriška planina.
