Access to starting point:
From the Ljubljana - Jesenice highway take the Kranj - east exit and follow the road ahead in the direction of Jezersko, but only to the inn Kanonir, where we turn left. We further follow initially the still asphalted road but only to the approximately 2 km distant crossroad, where the road to Stegovnik branches off to the right. We go on this road, which we follow a few hundred meters to the gate, where we park on a smaller parking lot.
Path description:
From the gate we follow the forest road which after approximately 20 minutes brings us to a crossroad. We go right and follow the road further to a bigger grassy clearing on which a house stands. Here we go straight on the footpath following the signs for Stegovnik (left Stegovnik through the window, unmarked path). The path ascends a little and brings us to a cart track. Here we carefully look for the blazes and take care that the cart track does not mislead us. The path then crosses the cart track a few more times and brings us to Močnikovo sedlo together with the cart track.
Here on the saddle we go sharply left and on a wide path already after a few steps we come to the next junction. We go left again in the direction of Stegovnik. The path soon brings us to another cart track. This is the cart track along which we were walking already before the saddle. We follow this cart track for approximately 5 minutes to the spot where the path to Stegovnik branches off to the right upwards. After the initial ascent the path quickly becomes gentle and in a traverse towards the right brings us to a torrent gully. Here the path starts to ascend steeply beside the torrent, which it crosses in the upper part and brings us to the other side. Here the steepness decreases again and through a nice forest brings us to a saddle named Pri Lojtri.
Next follows an ascent on an initially gentle ridge, which soon becomes quite steep (in wet dangerous for slipping). The path then with the help of a steel cable overcomes the only demanding spot on the path. The path crosses a 3 meters long exposed ledge. After that the path brings us to a less steep ridge which we follow with nice views to the summit which we reach in 10 minutes of additional walking.
