Bukovnik - Velika Raduha (climbing way)

Access to starting point:
A) We drive to Luče (to here from Mozirje or from Kamnik over the 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 continue driving right in the direction of Podolševa, the mountain pass Spodnje Sleme and Črna na Koroškem. Further, the road loses the asphalt covering, and after a few kilometers at the crossroad in Podolševa we turn right towards Črna na Koroškem. The road, which further mainly ascends transversely, brings us after some time to the mountain pass Spodnje Sleme. Here we turn right in the direction of the mountain hut Koča na Grohatu and the farm Bukovnik (the farm Bukovnik is located at an altitude of 1327 meters and is considered the highest-lying farm in Slovenia) and continue the ascent on a macadam road, which a few hundred meters higher brings us to the next crossroad. At the mentioned crossroad, a forest road closed to public traffic branches off slightly to the left, which leads towards Koča na Grohatu, and straight ahead the road continues towards the aforementioned farm. We park at an appropriate place near the crossroad.
B) We drive to Črna na Koroškem (to here from Ravne na Koroškem or from Šoštanj over the mountain pass Spodnje Sleme), and then we continue driving towards Luče. Initially still an asphalt road, higher it becomes macadam and brings us to the crossroad of several roads at the mountain pass Spodnje Sleme. Here we turn left in the direction of Koča na Grohatu and the farm Bukovnik (the farm Bukovnik is located at an altitude of 1327 meters and is considered the highest-lying farm in Slovenia) and continue the ascent on a macadam road, which a few hundred meters higher brings us to the next crossroad. At the mentioned crossroad, a forest road closed to public traffic branches off slightly to the left, which leads towards Koča na Grohatu, and straight ahead the road continues towards the aforementioned farm. We park at an appropriate place near the crossroad.

Path description:
From the starting point we head onto the upper left road (the lower road leads towards the farm Bukovnik), which leads us only a few tens of meters ahead over a barrier. A little after the barrier, which prevents further driving, we arrive at the spot where the blazes lead us left onto a marked footpath, which initially ascends somewhat more steeply, then quickly flattens. The path further slightly ascends towards the south, thereby crossing a large number of gullies and some steeper slopes. At a few places wooden bridges assist us, and on one section even a steel cable (undemanding). After approximately half an hour of walking we step out of the forest and the path brings us to a forest road, which then leads us across the alpine pasture Grohat. From here only a few steps of gentle ascent follow, and the path, from which a nice view opens onto the northern slopes of Raduha, quickly brings us to the Koča na Grohatu.
From the hut we continue on the marked path in the direction of Raduha. The path first leads us across pastures to the nearby shepherds' huts, where we turn left. From here the path begins to ascend somewhat more steeply, then brings us in a few minutes to a marked junction, where we continue right in the direction of the very demanding path to Raduha (left the path over Durce).
Further the path ascends through sparse forest and soon turns somewhat to the left, where it crosses steep slopes below Mala Raduha. A little further the path turns left again and brings us to the first steel cables. The well-secured path across the northern wall of Raduha further first leads on the left side of the steep gully, crosses it higher up, then follows a somewhat exposed but well-secured ascent towards the ridge of Raduha. Higher the path flattens and brings us to the ridge, where we join the path over Durce and the path from Koča na Loki pod Raduho.
At the junction we continue right and in a few minutes of moderate ascent reach the panoramic summit.
We can descend via the easier path over Durce.
Bukovnik - Koča na Grohatu 40 minutes, Koča na Grohatu - Raduha 1:45.
