We drive to Kamnik and follow the road ahead towards the Kamniška Bistrica valley, where we park on a large parking lot near the mountain hut Dom v Kamniški Bistrici.
Path description:
From the parking lot in front of the mountain hut Dom v Kamniški Bistrici we continue on the initially still asphalted road, which after a short ascent quickly brings us into the forest. After a few minutes of walking the mountain signs for Kamniško sedlo direct us to the right onto a steep footpath, which a little higher brings us to an interesting passage below overhanging cliffs. The still steep path then brings us to the bottom station of a cargo cableway, where we step on the road. We continue left and then already after a few steps sharply right. The relatively steep forest path brings us higher to a cart track, which we follow a few tens of meters to the right, then the blazes direct us to the left, where after a steep initial ascent the steepness eases. Further in a gentle diagonal ascent we cross relatively steep slopes, after which from the left the path from the higher starting point (Jermanca) joins us. A few more minutes of walking follow and the path brings us to the junction V Klinu. The marked path towards Kamniško sedlo here turns left upwards (by the path there are also signposts), and we continue slightly right on an unmarked path. At the beginning of this path is a large caption »Pot ne vodi na K. sedlo«.
Further, the path starts to ascend a little more steeply and runs through the forest on the left side of the valley. A few times from the path right downwards a narrow footpath branches off, but we all the time walk on the better beaten footpath, which all the time runs on the left side of the valley. Later, when the path brings us out of the forest, we will notice a waterfall when there is enough water in the stream on the right. The path then crosses a slightly exposed slope to the right, aided by some pegs. Here we will on the right side in the stream bed notice a few pools. We continue left and we again start ascending through the forest and dwarf pines. When we come out of the forest the path brings us to a junction, where we continue right on a narrow footpath through dwarf pines. Near the junction on the left side there is a viharnik; if we were to continue left the path after a few meters brings us to a panoramic ridge.
Out of the dwarf pines the path leads us over a short scree and then crosses rocky slabs. The path still runs on the left side of the valley and in the last part turns slightly to the right. Here the path becomes a little steeper and some easy climbing is needed (1st degree). The path on this part is also a little less visible, aided by some cairns. At the last ascent towards Srebrno sedlo the path avoids the steepness on the right side.
On Srebrno sedlo where we join the marked path we continue left. Next follows traversing of slopes towards the west, which we do in a moderate ascent. Next we come to the next junction, where we continue right towards the summit of Planjava (left Kamniško sedlo). From the increasingly panoramic path the green meadows finally end, replaced by gray rock. A little below the summit paths from Klemenča jama and Kamniško sedlo also join us. Only a shorter ascent on the summit slope of the mountain follows.
