Access to starting point:
From Logatec we drive towards Tolmin or vice versa. When we come to Spodnja Idrija we turn left (from the direction Tolmin right) in the direction of village Kanomlja. Soon after Spodnja Idrija, right upwards a road branches off towards the village Krnica. When the road eventually flattens, we notice by the road signs for hunting cottage (lovska koča) and Jelenk. Here at the sign, where there is a smaller crossroad we park on a small parking lot by the road.
Path description:
From the sign, we continue on the road in the direction of the hunting cottage (lovska koča) and Jelenk. After a minute of walking, we get to the hunting cottage, where we continue straight on a cart track which is moderately ascending through the forest. And from the cart track after few minutes a marked footpath branches off, which is abandoned, therefore we continue on a cart track (short part isn't marked), which the marked path soon joins. When both paths join, the cart track slightly descends and then turns into a footpath. Further, we are ascending through the forest on the path which a little below the summit brings us on a larger clearing. After few steps of walking on this clearing we come on a wide cart track on which we notice signs for Jelenk. Here we go in the direction of Jelenk and after few steps of ascent we step on the summit.
