Access to starting point:
Between Trenta and Bovec in the village Soča, a road in Lepena branches off. This asphalt road we follow to a parking lot at the mountain hut Dom v Lepeni.
Path description:
From Dr. Klement Jug House in Lepena we continue on a wide marked path in the direction of Krn lakes. After few minutes of walking a wide and not too steep path splits into two parts. The left one which is a bit steeper is a normal way and right one less steep and longer is suitable for small children and the elderly. Paths cross each other few times and are mostly ascending through the forest until we get to the upper station of the cargo cableway. From the upper station of the cargo cableway, we continue on the same path that is gently ascending on the wide transport road that quickly brings us to the measurements of the snow (every year in April). From here the road starts to descend, leads us past the turn-off to Velika Baba and it quickly brings us to the next crossing where we leave the road and continue down left on the footpath that in few minutes brings us to the mountain hut Dom pri Krnskih jezerih (if we would continue on the road, we avoid the mountain hut).
After the next few minutes, a gentle path brings us to the pearl of the Krn mountains. In front of us we see Krn lake and inviting meadows by the lake for a rest. The marked path then leads us on the left side of the lake by the base of the scree of Mali Šmohor. On the other side of the lake, the path turns a little to the left and starts ascending on a bit steeper slope, on which higher unmarked (upper) path joins us. The upper path in ascending crosses the scree above Krn lake (this path is a little shorter but exposed to falling stones). The path then turns a little to the right and it brings us to extensive deposits of torrential gravel.
With wonderful views of the nearby peaks we cross a grassy meadow Planina na Polju (on the right side, little away from the marked path we will notice a hunting cottage) and behind it we start ascending through a small valley. The path then starts to ascend a bit steeper and soon brings us to an unmarked crossing. The marked path which leads towards Krnska škrbina here turns right, and we continue straight on an unmarked path, which in a moderate ascent brings us to a saddle Prag, where we again step on a marked path.
On the saddle Prag, where there is a marked crossing, we continue left in the direction of the mountain hut on the mountain pasture Razor (right Batognica and Krn, straight downwards lake Jezero v Lužnici) on the path which crosses slopes of Vrh nad Peski. After approximately 10 minutes of crossing the scree below Vrh nad Peski, we will come to a smaller crossing, where we continue left in the direction of "V. Peski". The path ahead in few minutes ascends on a smaller grassy saddle, and then continues on the more and more panoramic and occasionally also quite steep path. This panoramic and relatively steep path, we then follow all the way to the top of Vrh nad Peski, and we reach it after few minutes of additional walking.
