Hudi Graben - Šentanski vrh

Access to starting point:
A) From the highway Ljubljana - Jesenice, at the junction Podtabor we continue in the direction of Ljubelj and Tržič. We continue driving on the main road towards Ljubelj, and then just before the gas station, we turn right in the direction of Tržič and Begunje. The road then starts descending, and at the first intersection, we continue left (direction Begunje) into the underpass, through which we reach Bistrica pri Tržiču. A little further on, a sign for Begunje directs us right onto a narrower and ascending road, which we then follow through Brezje pri Tržiču to the village Hudi Graben, where at the end of the village we park at a suitable spot by the hiking signposts.
B) We drive to Begunje na Gorenjskem, then we follow the signs for Tržič. When we arrive at the settlement Hudi Graben, just a little beyond the road sign that marks the start of the settlement, we park at a suitable spot by the road.

Path description:
From the starting point, we continue some 10 steps towards Begunje, then the hiking signposts for Dobrča direct us right onto a steep cart track that leads to the nearby house. At the house, the cart track turns left, and from the cart track we go a little higher once again left onto a somewhat overgrown passage path. Along the path we ascend to a smaller saddle, where on the left we notice a smaller house, and we step onto the cart track, along which we begin to ascend. When walking along the cart track we follow the blazes; when the marked path turns left from the cart track into the forest, we leave the blazes and continue along the cart track. The cart track soon forks, and we choose the right one, along which we exit the forest onto an already somewhat overgrown clearing. There follow a few more junctions, and we follow the wider cart track. The cart track then ascends diagonally to the right, and when it turns left, we leave it and continue straight along a beaten path. Further on we ascend along the path, which soon crosses a torrent gully, then we ascend mostly through the forest. The path, which during and after rain is more like a stream, higher turns left and ascends to the Dobrča take-off site, where we reach the marked path from Brezje pri Tržiču.
We continue left upwards in the direction of Dobrča (slightly right Lešanska planina, right Brezje pri Tržiču). From the take-off site, where there is the bench of Polde Bibič and from where a nice view of Gorenjska opens up, the path returns to the forest and begins to ascend steeply. For quite some time we ascend steeply, then we cross a grazing fence, a little higher also a cart track. A little above the cart track we arrive at a marked junction on the Stine, where we continue straight upwards (left Koča na Dobrči, right Lešanska planina), so that we bypass the nearby cottage on the left side. For a few minutes we still ascend steeply, then the path gradually levels out and occasionally some views open up. There follow a few more junctions, where we follow the blazes, then the path temporarily descends and we arrive at the next marked junction, where we go right (left Koča na Dobrči).
There follows fairly level walking, a little further on the path over Lešanska planina joins from the right.
We continue towards Dobrča along a again steeper path, along which in about 5 minutes of further walking we reach the summit of Dobrča, from which a beautiful view opens up towards the Julian Alps.
From Dobrča we continue in the direction of Šentanski vrh, first descending into a small valley between the two peaks, then a short moderate ascent follows to the very panoramic Šentanski vrh.
