Access to starting point:
From Mojstrana we drive towards Kranjska Gora or vice versa, but only to the village Gozd Martuljek, where we park on a parking lot near the bridge over the river Sava Dolinka (parking lot is located after the bridge, or before, if we come from Kranjska Gora).
Path description:
From the parking lot, we continue by the main road towards Kranjska Gora, but only to a spot, where cycling road branches off to the left (by the beginning of the cycling path there are also signposts, which point us on the mentioned road). We follow the cycling road to the first crossroad, where we continue straight on a macadam road (cycling road turns right), which quickly brings us to the next crossroad.
We continue right and we follow for traffic closed road to TNP sign. Further, the path splits into two parts. We continue straight upwards on a steep cart track which is ascending on the right side of gorge Martuljška soteska. Cart track, which is mostly ascending through the forest after 15 minutes brings us on a nice vantage point, where a view opens up towards a valley. The path then goes again in the forest and continues to ascend. A little further from the left joins the path from the waterfall, and a little further, the path towards the bivouac Bivak pod Špikom branches off to the right.
We go on this path, which is at first ascending gently on a cart track. A wide path on which we are ascending then leads us past the rock with the caption "pod Špik".
When the path gets closer to a torrent we run into orientational problem. The path left runs to a torrent and then vanishes, and we continue straight past a smaller boulder on which there is a trail blaze. After that also our path gets closer to a torrent but it doesn't cross it yet. Further, it is ascending on the right side and it crosses it a little later. Crossing isn't difficult, but it is a little harder to ascent from torrent back on the path. This part is long only three meters so it doesn't cause problems. The path ahead is slightly ascending through the forest to the next torrent where there stands a boulder with big blaze. The path ahead starts to ascend steeply on with a forest covered slope. In the middle of this ascent we run into a well and a little ahead on a pleasant bench. Further, the forest becomes thinner and the path brings us on unvegetated slopes below Špik, where we run into torrent deposits of stones. At this spot, we leave the marked path. The marked path here turns right and after few minutes of ascent through the forest reaches bivouac Bivak pod Špikom.
We go slightly left on a wide riverbed of a torrent towards the east. We continue towards the scree, which is situated left from precipitous walls of the peak Na Pečeh. On the mentioned scree we can already from far see narrow footpath. When we come to the mentioned scree then narrow footpath leads on a steep valley right upward. We are ascending on the right side of the valley mostly through dwarf pines steep upwards. Such a path then brings us to Spodnji Kotel. Here slope flattens, and because of rocky terrain footpath for a short time vanishes.
Most guide books describe path, which in Spodnji Kotel turns to the right and then it ascends on a very steep groove. Easier variant is if in Spodnji Kotel we follow the footpath which leads slightly left towards the southeast. In this case the path brings us to the steep slopes covered with dwarf pines. In dwarf pines we enter few meters before the end of the scree on the left side. From the scree we have to at first few meters climb, after that very narrow and a little overgrown path leads through dwarf pines. After a short ascent footpath turns to the right and then in a gentle ascent crosses slopes towards the southwest. We soon come out of the dwarf pines and then follows an ascent on partly grassy and partly rocky slope, which brings us to Srednji Kotel.
We continue through a valley upwards, and towards the end of the valley we turn to the left. Here the views start opening up towards Ponce and Oltar. We soon reach a smaller saddle below the peak Na Pečeh. Here we continue right and on a partly grassy slope we soon reach the peak. On the summit breathtaking views open up on all sides.
