Čabrače - Koča na Blegošu

Access to starting point:
A) From Škofja Loka we drive towards Gorenja vas and further to Hotavlje, where we turn right in the direction of the village Leskovica and ski center Cerkno. A little further, we come to the next crossroad, where we continue right in the direction of Volaka and Čabrače. Further, we drive past the Marmor Hotavlje factory and behind it we come to a crossroad, where we continue left (direction Volaka and Čabrače). After a few meters of additional driving, we arrive at the beginning of the village Volaka, but we drive a little further to the spot where a road towards the village Čabrače branches off to the right. We go onto this road, which starts to ascend steeply towards the mentioned village. Only a little behind the church in the village we come to a smaller crossroad, where we continue on the right upper road in the direction of the Likar farm. From here we drive approximately 200 m, and then we will notice an appropriate space for parking on the left side of the road.
B) From Sovodenj or Žiri we drive towards Gorenja vas, and then still before the mentioned settlement, in Hotavlje we turn left in the direction of the village Leskovica and ski center Cerkno. A little further, we come to the next crossroad, where we continue right in the direction of Volaka and Čabrače. Further, we drive past the Marmor Hotavlje factory and behind it we come to a crossroad, where we continue left (direction Volaka and Čabrače). After a few meters of additional driving, we arrive at the beginning of the village Volaka, but we drive a little further to the spot where a road towards the village Čabrače branches off to the right. We go onto this road, which starts to ascend steeply towards the mentioned village. Only a little behind the church in the village we come to a smaller crossroad, where we continue on the right upper road in the direction of the Likar farm. From here we drive approximately 200 m, and then we will notice an appropriate space for parking on the left side of the road.

Path description:
From the starting point, we continue on the asphalt road, which after a short ascent brings us to the Likar farm. Behind the houses of the mentioned farm, the asphalt ends and the road brings us to a crossroad, where we continue left in the direction of Blegoš (we will notice the signpost on the right side on a smaller masonry building). We follow the mentioned road for approximately 5 minutes, then we continue right on the cart track, which in a few steps brings us to the edge of the grazing meadow (to here it is also possible along the edge of the meadow).
Here we notice the mountain signpost for Blegoš, which directs us left onto a narrow and steep path that ascends along the edge of the pasture. The path ahead crosses a strip of bushes, then brings us to the panoramic and grass-covered south ridge of Blegoš. Further, we ascend along the mentioned slope, along which we notice quite a few old military bunkers. Higher up, the path gradually enters the forest and after a few minutes of further ascent brings us to Prva ravan (1289 m), where it also flattens.
We continue slightly left on the path, which first ascends slightly more, then starts to descend. During the slight descent, the path bypasses a larger bunker, behind which we step onto a forest road, which quickly brings us to another wider road, where there is also a marked junction.
We continue straight (right Jelovica, left Jelenci) on the road, from which soon a path to Blegoš branches off to the left (the branch-off is marked).
We head onto the mentioned path, which leads us into dense forest and after a few minutes brings us to a marked junction, where we continue left in the direction of Koča na Blegošu (straight to Blegoš).
Further on, we cross an overgrown clearing, then the path returns to the forest. This is followed by traversing mostly southern slopes of Blegoš, then the path turns right, where an unmarked path from Leskovica joins from the left, and to the right an unmarked path to Blegoš branches off.
We continue straight, further on the cart track, which then begins to descend gently. When after a few minutes of further walking we step out of the forest, we already see Koča na Blegošu in front of us, to which only a short walk remains.

On the way: Prva ravan (1289m)
