Access to starting point:
A) We drive into Luče (to here from Mozirje or from Kamnik over mountain pass Volovljek (Kranjski Rak)), and then we continue driving towards Logarska dolina. In the village Solčava we leave the main road towards Logarska dolina and we continue driving right in the direction of Podolševa, mountain pass Spodnje Sleme and Črna na Koroškem. Further road loses an asphalt covering, and after few kilometers at the crossroad in Podolševa we turn right towards Črna na Koroškem. The road which is further mostly ascending diagonally, eventually brings us to mountain pass Spodnje Sleme. Here we turn right in the direction of the mountain hut Koča na Grohatu and farm Bukovnik (farm Bukovnik is located at an altitude 1327 meters and is considered the highest farm in Slovenia) and we continue the ascent on a macadam road which few 100 meters higher brings us to the next crossroad. At the mentioned crossroad for public traffic closed forest road branches off slightly to the left, which leads towards Koča na Grohatu, and straight road continues towards the mentioned farm. We park on an appropriate place near the crossroad.
B) We drive to Črna na Koroškem (to here from Ravne na Koroškem or from Šoštanj over mountain pass Spodnje Sleme, and then we continue driving towards Luče. At first asphalt road, higher becomes a macadam and it brings us to the crossroad of several roads on the mountain pass Spodnje Sleme. Here we turn left in the direction of Koča na Grohatu and farm Bukovnik (farm Bukovnik is located at an altitude 1327 meters and is considered the highest farm in Slovenia) and we continue the ascent on a macadam road which few 100 meters higher brings us to the next crossroad. At the mentioned crossroad for public traffic closed forest road branches off slightly to the left, which leads towards Koča na Grohatu, and straight road continues towards the mentioned farm. We park on an appropriate place near the crossroad.
Path description:
From the starting point, we go on the upper road which is with a traffic sign closed for public traffic (straight farm Bukovnik), and there after approximately 100 meters we get to a gate, which is also physically preventing further driving. A little further a nice view opens up towards the farm Bukovnik and Kamnik Savinja Alps, and when we return into the forest, the path splits.
We continue slightly left on a marked footpath (straight path on the road), which then crosses slopes towards the right, and most of the time it is gently to moderately ascending. During the crossing the path leads us through few shorter steep parts, where it is well-settled and in some parts also fenced, but technically it isn't demanding. Eventually we step out of the forest on the mountain pasture Grohot, where we return on the road, and to the mountain hut Koča v Grohotu pod Raduho separates us only few 10 strides of easy walking.
From the mountain hut, we continue in the direction of Durce and Raduha, where at first we still walk on a bad road, or higher cart track.
At the GRS cottage cart track finally ends, and we continue on a path, which turns left. Next follows a relatively short ascent through an occasionally thin forest and then we get to a marked crossing, where we continue left in the direction of Durce (right climbing path on Raduha).
The path ahead is quite steeply ascending and it is turning more and more towards the east. The increasingly panoramic path then brings us to scree below the mountain walls of Mala Raduha, where we continue straight (slightly right there is still visible abandoned old path). Next follows a crossing of the scree, and after crossing the gully we step into a lane of dwarf pines, through which leads us a well-settled path. On the mentioned path, which is steeply ascending after approximately 10 minutes of additional walking, we get to a marked crossing, which is situated a little east from Durce.
From the crossing, we go left (right Velika Raduha and one of the paths towards the mountain pasture Loka) in the direction of Lanež and Koča na Loki pod Raduho, where we bypass watering place on the right side. Next follows a short descent to a smaller interesting overhang cliff, and then an easy walk with some shorter ascents and descents. An easy path then moderately ascends and with nice views it brings us on an ample peak of Lanež, where on the left there is an inscription box in the shape of miniature Aljaž turret, and the highest point is situated a little more to the right.
Bukovnik - Planina Grohot 0:40, Planina Grohot - Durce 1:25, Durce - Lanež 0:15.
