Grant - Raskovec (via Rodica)

Access to starting point:
From Podbrdo we drive towards Tolmin or vice versa, but only to the village Koritnica. In Koritnica we will notice a sign for the village Rut, which points us right (from Tolmin sharply left). We then follow the mostly ascending road to the mentioned village, where there is also a smaller crossroads. We continue left towards the village Grant, to which we arrive after approximately 1 km of additional driving. In the village there are no designated parking spots, therefore we park at a suitable place somewhere nearby.

Path description:
At the end of the village Grant we look for the continuation of the marked path, which ahead runs on a poorer road or cart track. Further on follow some junctions, where we follow the otherwise rare blazes, and we quickly ascend above the village. Higher we leave the nearby pasture, then we ascend to a wider macadam road which we cross, and continue the ascent through the forest. Quite steep path, along which the blazes are more frequent further on, and higher crosses another forest road. Above the road the path turns slightly to the left and then starts ascending quite steeply. Higher the steepness decreases a little and then we join a wider cart track, which we follow to the left, along which we quickly arrive at a marked junction, where we continue right in the direction of Rodica (straight Koča na planini Razor and Geološka pot).
After the junction named Mladinska koča we start ascending along a well-preserved mule track, which after a few minutes turns sharply to the left, then for quite some time ascends diagonally to the left, first still through the forest and then through dwarf pines. During the diagonal ascent the path leads us also over some gullies, passages over them are not demanding, since the path is wide all the time. With nice views on Idrijsko and Cerkljansko hribovje, at the right serpentine we approach very close to the summit Jehlc, which during the crossing we see ahead of us all the time. At this serpentine straight ahead continues the pathless approach to the mentioned summit (the last part before the ridge is demanding), we continue on the marked path, which continues on the mule track. Two serpentines higher to the left branches off an easier approach to the previously mentioned summit, we continue ascending through dwarf pines. A little higher we reach the ridge, which stretches from Jehlc to the main ridge of Spodnje Bohinjske gore, the path withdraws from it several times, once to the left, another time to the right side. Higher dwarf pines are replaced by grasses and stones, and with every step nicer views open up for us. Follow a few more serpentines, where we ascend over a steeper slope, then the slope flattens and the path brings us to a marked junction, where we join the path from the Bohinj side.
Here we continue right (left Šija, Ski hotel Vogel and Ribčev Laz) and along a moderately steep ridge in good 10 minutes of further walking we ascend to the 1966 meters high summit Rodica.
From the summit Rodica we continue along the ridge in the direction of Črna prst. The path first starts descending along the ridge, then passes to the southern slopes, where just a few meters below the ridge it crosses occasionally quite steep slopes. Very panoramic path at the foot of Suha Rodica (Novi vrh) passes to shady slopes, where it crosses the slopes of the mentioned summit (snow field which persists until the beginning of summer). When the path returns to the main ridge, we leave the marked path and continue along the ridge (southwest ridge of Raskovec), beside which we notice a very poorly visible pathlet, which brings us to the summit Raskovec in 10 minutes of ascent along the summit slope.
Grant - Rodica 3:30, Rodica - Raskovec 1:00.
