Access to starting point:
We drive to Podpeč, where we go towards Ig. We follow this road only for a short time to a crossroad, where we go right in the direction of Jezero. The road quickly brings us to the next crossroad, where we again turn right and we follow the road to the parking lot by the road. On the larger organized parking lot, parking is allowed only for guests of the restaurant.
Route description:
From the parking lot, we return approximately 100m back to a crossroad, where we notice signs for Krim. Ahead we follow the asphalt road which leads us through the village upwards. After a few minutes of walking, the asphalt ends and the road quickly changes into a cart track which brings us to a crossing. We continue on the left path in the direction of Ledena jama (Krim left and right). Ahead we follow the cart track which is moderately ascending through the forest and a little higher brings us to a crossing. If we want we can make a short detour to Ledena jama which takes good five minutes in both directions.
Otherwise, we continue right on the path which soon brings us to a forest road which we follow upwards to a smaller hamlet. Here we come also on a crossing, where we continue left in the direction of Krim. The path then already after a few meters brings us to the church of St. Tomaž, which we see in front of us. The path ahead is ascending gently on a cart track which has quite a few crossings, so we carefully follow the blazes. A little higher, the cart track crosses a forest road and starts ascending steeper. Ahead the steepness again decreases and the path brings us on a wider cart track, where we join the path from the villages Tomišelj, Vrbljene and Strahomer. The wide cart track, which occasionally ascends a little steeper, we follow all the way to the road on Krim.
Here we continue left and we follow the road to a large parking lot. We continue right past a cross and on a meadow, which ends with stairs, we ascend to the mountain hut Dom na Krimu.
Along the route: Ledenica pri Planinci (480m), Sveti Tomaž (572m)

Discussion about the trip Jezero - Krim (via Ledenica)

Given all the scree on the path, the ascent is quite strenuous. The descent is the same.

Yesterday on Krim via this path. All the time walking in fog except the last 100 vertical meters. At the top view of the "sea" and nothing else, interesting feeling. In the hut friendly waitress

We often take it from Jezero to sv. Tomaž on Planinci. In the last week we've read a lot about bear encounters. My husband also went on the previous Friday (18 May around 19h) on this path. After about ten minutes from Jezero he spotted the furry one. He carefully turned back so they didn't get close. Possibly it's the same bear that attacked a man above Ig today, so caution on these paths is not superfluous.

I agree. The ascent is a bit strenuous due to the rocks, which especially bothers on the way down. But it's a nice hike, testing endurance, especially the last 30-45 min when the path really climbs. But on the top you have everything compensated 
Best regards

Today my colleague and I went and there were no bears anywhere. :P It was just one day after rain, so the stones up can slip a lot. The path description misses the info that when continuing from Ledenica cave, we follow signs for "Planinca" - that's the hamlet mentioned in the text, from there onwards there are again signs for Krim. Have a nice trip!

IMPORTANT!
I ask all hikers to keep their dogs on a leash! (bear area.)
Nice hunting regards.
