Bohinjsko sedlo - Dravh (via Lajnar)

Access to starting point:
From the highway Ljubljana - Jesenice we take the exit Lesce and follow the road towards Bled and further towards Bohinjska Bistrica. From Bohinjska Bistrica we continue left in the direction of Tolmin and Soriška planina. We follow this road to a large parking lot near the ski center Soriška planina.
From Železniki we drive towards Podbrdo or vice versa, but only to the spot where signs for Soriška planina direct us onto an ascending road. We follow this road to a large parking lot at the foot of the ski area Soriška planina.

Route description:
From the parking lot on Bohinjsko sedlo we head onto the macadam road in the direction of the mountain hut Litostrojska koča on Soriška planina. After less than 5 minutes of gentle ascent we arrive at the mentioned mountain hut from which a view opens up onto the nearby grassy slopes of the surrounding peaks.
From the hut we continue on the marked path in the direction of Šavnik, Možic and Lajnar. After some 10 steps of walking we arrive at a less noticeable junction where the path to Možic branches off slightly to the right, while we continue straight ahead in the direction of Lajnar. The path ahead first ascends gently along the edge of the ski lift, then begins to ascend somewhat more steeply towards the saddle between Lajnar on the left and Mali Slatnik on the right.
After approximately half an hour of walking we reach the mentioned saddle where several paths meet. We continue left in the direction of Dravh and Lajnar (right Slatnik, Šavnik and Možic) on the path that climbs along and beside the panoramic ridge. The mentioned path, which runs along the pasture fence, brings us in a few minutes of further ascent to the summit of Lajnar.
From Lajnar we descend to the upper station of the two-seater chairlift, then continue towards the east on the path that runs between the sparse forest on the left and the fence on the right. After a short descent we arrive at the col between Lajnar and Dravh where an unmarked path from Soriška planina also joins from the left (descent option).
We continue straight on the panoramic ridge path along which we ascend to the summit of Dravh in a few minutes.
