end of road on Pokljuka - Planina Konjščica

Access to starting point:
a) Leave the Gorenjska motorway at the Lesce exit, then follow signs for Bled and Pokljuka. Continue through Gorje and past the Zatrnik ski slope to Rudno polje on Pokljuka, where there is a large paid parking lot, nearby also a military barracks and shooting range. From here continue straight on the gravel road, which a bit further leads to a junction, where continue right (left Uskovnica). Follow this road to the former parking lot Za Ribnico, located at the end of the road (nearby are mountain signs for planina Konjščica).
Parking at the end of the road is now prohibited, so park at Rudno polje, which extends the route by about 40 minutes; more appropriately, choose the marked path that starts at Rudno polje.
b) From Železniki or Podbrd drive to Bohinjska Bistrica, then continue towards Bled. Shortly after the Petrol gas station located just after Bohinjska Bistrica, turn left towards Pokljuka and Jereka. The road first climbs steeply, then gradually flattens after Koriti and leads to a junction at the bus stop, where continue right towards Pokljuka, Koprivnik and Jereka (straight Srednja vas). Immediately after the junction we arrive in Jereka, but from the junction in front of the church continue straight towards Pokljuka (left Podjelje). After Jereka the road climbs steeply again, higher it flattens and continues along Mrzli potok. When joining the road from Bled, turn left and drive to Rudno polje, where there is a large paid parking lot, nearby military barracks and shooting range. From here continue straight on the gravel road, which a bit further leads to a junction, continue right (left Uskovnica). Follow this road to the former parking lot Za Ribnico at the end of the road (nearby mountain signs for planina Konjščica).
Parking at the end of the road is now prohibited, so park at Rudno polje, extending the route by about 40 minutes; better to choose the marked path starting at Rudno polje.

Traffic regime in the Pokljuka and Uskovnica area from 15.6. to 15.10.

Path description:
From the former parking lot at the end of the road continue along the wide and initially ascending cart track towards Planina Konjščica. The cart track, entering dense forest immediately, soon levels out and after a few minutes of easy walking turns into a footpath continuing along the left bank of the Ribnica stream. When the path approaches the stream completely it turns slightly right and ascends more steeply. Higher up the path levels out and leads us from the forest to the lower edge of the vast Planina Konjščica. Here the path turns slightly left, crosses the streamlet and after a few more steps brings us to the dairy at Planina Konjščica.
