Access to starting point:
From the Ljubljana-Jesenice motorway, take the Ljubelj (Tržič) exit, then continue driving towards Ljubelj. Just before the petrol station in Bistrica pri Tržiču, leave the main road and continue right towards Tržič. Then drive through Tržič towards Dolžanova soteska, and at the end of the town continue right towards Lom pod Storžičem and Grahovše. At the end of Grahovše village, the asphalt ends, and we continue following the gravel road towards Dom pod Storžičem. We follow this steeper gravel road in the upper section to the parking lot near Dom pod Storžičem.
Route description:
From the parking lot near Dom pod Storžičem, head left onto the road towards Javorniško sedlo, Jezersko, Tič, Rekar and Grahovše. After a few steps, the road forks, and we continue slightly right towards Javorniški preval, gradually beginning a moderate ascent.
Higher up, where the road turns into a cart track, leave it and continue right on the marked path, which begins to ascend more steeply; before reaching Javorniški preval, it crosses the cart track twice more, and it is also possible to reach Javorniški preval via the cart track. After about 1 hour of walking, we reach the mentioned pass, where there is a signpost and stamping box, and a junction of several paths.
Here continue left (right Kanonir, sharp right Storžič), where after a few dozen steps we arrive at the next junction. The right path leads towards Močnikovo sedlo, we continue on the left path towards Planina Javornik. The path ahead continues along a wide and gentle cart track, which for a while crosses the slopes towards the northwest. After a few minutes, the forest thins, and the increasingly scenic path leads us to Planina Javornik, from which a nice view opens up.
From the planina, continue left downhill (straight Stegovnik, right Veliki Javornik or Ženiklovec) and descend along the cart track that crosses a strip of forest to the nearby forest road. When we step onto the road, which we reach right at a small intersection with a memorial plaque, another path from Dom pod Storžičem joins from the left. Here continue straight along the slightly ascending road, quickly reaching the nearby Koča Pr Zdravc.
From the hut, continue briefly along the road, then at a small pass continue right onto the marked footpath towards Bela peč. The path ahead begins a moderate ascent along the edge of steep slopes, then briefly leads to a cart track, which we follow left. The cart track soon ends, and the path moves onto steeper slopes, which we cross to the right. A short slightly exposed section follows, after which the slope flattens. Crossing a pasture fence follows, then a gentle path leads us to the next marked junction.
At the junction, continue left (straight Planina Zgornja and Planina Spodnja Konjščica) towards the scenic point Bela peč. Here continue through a narrow passage between two trees, then quickly ascend to the panoramic summit.
Descent possible via the path over Gabrčev rovt.
