Access to starting point:
From the highway Ljubljana - Jesenice, we take the exit Podnart (Ljubelj), then continue driving on the fast road towards Ljubelj and Tržič. When the fast road ends, we will notice a gas station on the right side, in front of which we turn right downwards towards Tržič. Further, we drive through Tržič, and we follow the narrower road towards the gorge Dovžanova soteska and further to the village Dolina, where on a macadam parking lot before the bridge over the river Tržiška Bistrica we also park.
Path description:
From the parking lot, we first cross the bridge, then walk along the main road to the nearby chapel, where we continue left by the garden and older residential house onto the forest road. We continue the ascent on an ever narrower and worse macadam road, which leads us beside the stream Kališnik moderately upwards. The road soon changes into a cart track, which then starts to ascend more steeply. Higher, we come to a water catchment, above which the narrower cart track turns left and ends after a few meters, and we continue straight across a larger grassy meadow, on which we ascend to a somewhat larger spruce, where the blazes direct us slightly right onto a steeper footpath. We continue on the steep path, which crosses a shorter strip of forest, then brings us to moderately steep grassy slopes, on which, with nice views of Storžič and Stegovnik, we ascend to the saddle Kal, where we also step onto the forest road. From the saddle, from which a nice view of Begunjščica opens up, we continue right and in a few steps arrive at Zavetišče na Kalu.
From the shelter, we continue on the macadam road, where we quickly reach a marked junction. From the junction, we continue left upwards on the marked footpath (straight to Dom na Kofcah past the chapel), which starts to ascend steeply. After a few steps, the path levels out and brings us into a strip of bushes, where we cross scenic slopes to the right. On the other side, the path returns to the forest and starts to ascend steeply along the edge of rocky cliffs. The path further leads us past a few smaller natural caves, then levels out and brings us into more plateau-like terrain. The path ahead, with a view of the western part of Košuta, crosses a poor forest road, then brings us to the parking lot at the end of the forest road that leads towards Kofce.
From the parking lot, we continue on a wide cart track, on which we ascend to the mountain pasture Kofce in 15 minutes. From the point where we stepped onto the lower edge of the pasture, only 5 minutes of increasingly panoramic walking across the pastures of the aforementioned pasture separate us from the mountain hut.
From the mountain hut, we continue in the direction of Veliki vrh and Kladivo on an initially somewhat less visible path that starts ascending across a panoramic meadow. After 15 minutes of walking from the Dom na Kofcah hut, we reach a nice viewpoint at the cross.
The path then descends slightly and in a few minutes brings us to the steeper slopes of Košuta. The path then ascends through a strip of dwarf pines, bringing us to a junction. We continue right (straight to Veliki vrh) on the path to which an unmarked but signed path from the Šija pasture joins after just a few meters. We continue left upwards on the path that ascends steeply and quickly brings us to an exposed passage. Without fixed protection, we cross a short but crumbly and slightly exposed ledge, after which we enter a strip of dwarf pines. The path ahead ascends through a short strip of dwarf pines, then continues along the side ridge of Košuta. The increasingly panoramic and quite steep path joins the ridge path higher up.
We continue straight upwards on the unmarked path, which after 10 steps brings us to the summit (left Veliki vrh, right Kladivo).
Starting point - Zavetišče na Kalu 1:00, Zavetišče na Kalu - Dom na Kofcah 45 minutes, Dom na Kofcah - Kofce gora 1:00.
