Access to starting point:
A) We leave the Ljubljana–Jesenice motorway at the Naklo exit, or we can also leave it at the Podtabor junction, then follow the signs for Podbrezje, Podnart and Kropa. After crossing the railway line in Podnart, we continue left and drive towards Kropa. When we notice the factory of the company Iskra Mehanizmi d.o.o. on the left, we are already near the starting point. Behind the company, the road branches off to the left towards the village Brezovica, and we park a little further on the parking lot on the right side of the road.
B) From the Jesenice–Ljubljana motorway, we take the Lesce or Radovljica exit, then continue driving towards Radovljica and later the villages Lancovo, Lipnica, Kamna Gorica and Kropa, without entering it. We continue towards Podnart, then park just a little further from the junction on the parking lot on the left side of the road, opposite the company Iskra Mehanizmi.
C) We drive to Železniki, then continue driving towards Kropa. Behind Kropa, opposite the company Iskra Mehanizmi, we park on the parking lot on the left side of the road.
Path description:
From the spot where we have parked, we walk to the junction where the road splits towards Kropa and Kamna Gorica. At the junction, by the road sign 0.0 km, we will notice a footpath which ascends through the forest. Along the footpath we quickly ascend to the cart track, which we follow to the left, and from it still before we step out of the forest onto a larger meadow, we continue slightly right onto a beaten footpath, which first ascends diagonally, and when it reaches a smaller ridge turns right. Further on we moderately ascend through the forest for some time, higher up the path from the centre of the village Brezovica joins us from the left.
We continue along the ascending path, which bypasses Kugla (peak with transmitters) on the left side, then lightly descends to a marked junction, where an unmarked path from Češnjica pri Kropi joins from the left, and a marked path from Kropa from the right.
We continue towards Jamnik, the path leads us along a forested ridge, after a short ascent we reach the indistinct peak Berigle. Higher the path from the ridge gradually passes onto the slope and splits.
To the left a path branches off towards Jamnik, we go a few steps further left to the marked junction, from which we continue along the steep path in the direction of Vodiška planina. A few minutes of steep ascent follow, then we cross an asphalt road.
On the other side of the road we continue along the marked cart track, from it we soon go right onto the footpath, which after a few minutes returns to the cart track. Some ascent along the cart track follows, where we make a few hairpin turns, then the cart track narrows into a mountain path. During the further ascent some views towards Jamnik open up briefly, behind a smaller symbol the path widens into a cart track, which brings us to a junction where the path from Jamnik joins from the left.
We follow the signs for Vodice and quickly arrive at a junction where the path to Tehnika Meta branches off to the left, we continue right towards Vodice.
Further on we walk along a gentle path that leads us across the plateau-like terrain of forested Jelovica.
From the old cart track path, the signs for Vodice eventually direct us right onto a nice easy-to-follow footpath, which gradually ascends to the ridge Zidane skale. We walk along the ridge for some time, then arrive at the viewpoint Zidana skala, from which a nice view opens onto the Karavanke and Kamniško Savinjske Alpe.
From the viewpoint the path returns to the forest, which further ascends along the edge of very steep slopes that are especially dangerous for slipping when wet. The path ahead ascends for a few more minutes, then turns slightly right and begins to descend relatively steeply. During the descent we still walk along the edge of steep slopes that are dangerous for slipping, as indicated also by the memorial to the deceased hiker. The path then gradually flattens and brings us to the NOB memorial, where we join a wider cart track path.
Here we continue right and follow the cart track, which after a few minutes begins to descend steeply towards Vodiška planina. After a short descent the path flattens and brings us to the mentioned mountain pasture, in the middle of which stands the Partizanski dom.
