Dom v Lepeni - Lake Krnsko jezero

Access to starting point:
Between Trenta and Bovec, in the village of Soča, a road branches off to Lepena. We follow this fully asphalted road to the parking lot at the mountain hut Dom v Lepeni.

Path description:
From the Dr. Klement Jug House in Lepena we continue on a wide marked path in the direction of the Krn Lakes. After a few minutes of walking, the wide and not too steep path splits into two parts. The left one, which is somewhat steeper, is the usual one; the right one, gentler and somewhat longer, is suitable for small children and the elderly. Both paths ascend mostly through the forest to the upper station of the cargo cableway and cross each other several times along the way. From the upper station of the cargo cableway, we continue on the same path, which gently ascends along the wide transport road that quickly brings us to the snow height measurement (every year in April). From here the road starts to descend and brings us quickly past the turn-off to Velika Baba to the next junction, where we leave the road and continue left downhill on the footpath that in a few minutes brings us to the mountain hut Dom pri Krnskih jezerih (if we continue on the road, we bypass the mountain hut).
From the mountain hut we continue straight in the direction of Krn and Krn Lake on a gentle path to which soon joins the path that bypasses the mountain hut. We continue past the shepherd's hut, behind which we arrive at the next junction, where we again continue in the direction of Krn (left to Bogatin, Mali Šmohor and Dom na Komni).
The gentle path then brings us after a further few minutes to the pearl of the Krn mountain range. In front of us we see Krn Lake and beside it inviting meadows for resting.
