Access to starting point:
We drive to Kamnik and follow the road ahead towards the valley of Kamniška Bistrica. From the hut in Kamniška Bistrica we continue driving on the forest road, which brings us higher up to a crossroads, where we continue right towards Jermanca (straight ahead is the starting point for Kokrsko sedlo). We follow this occasionally somewhat steeper road to the parking lot, which is located a little before the end of the road.
Driving from the Koča in Kamniška Bistrica to Jermanca is now forbidden (traffic sign); this extends the path by a good hour.
Route description:
From the parking lot, we continue on the road alongside which we have parked. After a few minutes, the road ends, and we continue on a footpath without major ascents or descents. The path, which crosses a large number of gullies, then joins the path from Kamniška Bistrica (lower starting point). Here pay attention on the descent that we go on the path by which we came. Well-marked and relatively steep path, which ascends through the forest for some time longer, brings us higher to a pleasant spring (in dry periods it dries up). From the spring a short ascent follows and the path brings us to the known resting place Pri Pastirjih, where an emergency bivouac stands.

Yesterday we had a safe walking course in winter conditions with PD Kamnik. Unfortunately due to the conditions we only went as far as here. Slush unfortunately on the entire path from Jermanca, where we went down, and also right from the hut in Kamniška Bistrica from where we started. Also to Kamniško sedlo according to reports from returning hikers -though rare ones, it was no better. So we wait for more favorable winter weather.

Velkavrh, it's a shame we didn't have proper winter conditions. It was still instructive and pleasant nevertheless. It was my first time going to the mountains with PD, but certainly not the last.

When the conditions are wintery again, I would gladly join you on the course. Where will it be posted, if there is one?

PD Kamnik organizes a course on safer hiking in winter conditions every year in December when the winter season in the mountains begins. This time only the practical part from December was moved to January. DGRS Kamnik also organizes on 05th and 06th February a similar Course on Safer Hiking to the Mountains in Winter Conditions on Velika planina - attaching a shortcut to this post: http://www.drustvo-pdkamnik.si/novice.php?pid=829 Good luck
