Dom Pristava in Javorniški Rovt - Ptičji vrh

Access to starting point:
From the Ljubljana–Jesenice motorway, take the Lipce exit and follow the road ahead in the direction of Jesenice. When we come to the traffic-light junction, where we join the old road, we continue right in the direction of Žirovnica. We follow this road only for a short time, because at the next slightly larger junction (traffic lights) we continue left in the direction of Javorniški Rovt. The road then goes through the underpass (railway) and then turns left (right Koroška Bela). We follow the road, which higher up starts to ascend steeply, in the direction of Javorniški Rovt. We then follow the mentioned road to the parking lot near the mountain hut.

Path description:
From the parking lot, we walk to the mountain hut, then continue the ascent on an initially poorly visible path that ascends on the left side of the swampy pond. Further on, a clearly visible and wide path brings us after 5 minutes of walking to the road, where there is also a junction.
We continue right in the direction of Golica (left Javorniški Rovt, straight Španov vrh and Jelenkamen) and continue the ascent on the road which first leads past a larger puddle, then turns right and brings us out of the forest. When we step out of the forest, a view opens towards Struška, Medji dol and part of Belščica. The road, which then moderately ascends, returns into the forest higher up and crosses a larger gully, after which we soon arrive at a marked junction.
Here we leave the road which turns left and continues towards Križovec and continue straight on the less used road. From the junction we walk on the road only two more minutes, then the markers direct us left onto a cart track which starts to ascend more steeply through the forest. After a few minutes of ascent, the path levels out and brings us out of the forest onto the meadows of Pusti Rovt, where we also join the road from Križovec. Here we continue straight on the gentle road, along which we quickly arrive at the nearby shepherd's hut.
From the shepherd's hut we continue on the road, which in the upper part of Pusti Rovt turns right into the forest. Only a little further we come to a marked junction, where we continue slightly right (left Golica) on a moderately steep path, which only a few meters higher crosses a relatively new road which leads to Belska planina - Svečica. We only cross the mentioned road and continue the ascent on the marked path, which soon passes out of the forest onto panoramic slopes below Sedlo Kočna. We continue the ascent past a smaller hunting hut, behind which we soon come to the watering place for animals. Only a short ascent follows and the path brings us to Sedlo Kočna, from which a nice view opens onto the Austrian side.
On the saddle we continue left (right Struška) and continue the path briefly on the marked path towards Golica. After a shorter gentle ascent the marked path moves away from the ridge slightly to the left, and we leave it right there and continue the ascent on a poorly visible little path which continues along the border ridge. The path ahead ascends a little more steeply for a short time, then levels slightly and continues in a moderate ascent. We follow this path, from which increasingly beautiful views open up, all the way to the grassy summit.
