Access to starting point:
A) From the Ljubljana-Jesenice highway, take the Kranj-East exit and continue following the road towards Jezersko. From Zgornje Jezersko, continue driving over the alpine pass Jezerski vrh to Železna Kapla / Bad Eisenkappel, where we turn left in the direction of the settlement Šajda / Zell Schaida. Further, we drive through the valley of the Obirski potok stream, but we follow the road only to the Obir Pepi inn, where we turn right in the direction of the Eisenkappler Hütte mountain hut. The road then starts ascending more steeply and brings us higher to Kurnikovo sedlo (997 m), where toll is collected. There follow a few more kilometers of driving and the quite winding road brings us to the large parking lot at the Eisenkappler Hütte mountain hut.
B) From Štajerska, we first drive to Mozirje, then continue driving towards Logarska dolina and later to Pavličevo sedlo. From Pavličevo sedlo, we descend to Bela / Bad Vellach, then continue driving towards Železni Kapli / Bad Eisenkappel, where we turn left in the direction of the settlement Šajda / Zell Schaida. Further, we drive through the valley of the Obirski potok stream, but we follow the road only to the Obir Pepi inn, where we turn right in the direction of the Eisenkappler Hütte mountain hut. The road then starts ascending more steeply and brings us higher to Kurnikovo sedlo (997 m), where toll is collected. There follow a few more kilometers of driving and the quite winding road brings us to the large parking lot at the Eisenkappler Hütte mountain hut.
Route description:
From the parking lot, we first walk to the nearby mountain hut, then continue on the marked path in the direction of the summit Ojstrc / Hochobir. The path soon goes above the hut into the forest, through which it then ascends for some time. Higher up, the path, alongside which we notice a larger number of educational-natural history panels, flattens out and brings us out of the forest into the dwarf pine belt. There follow a few minutes of easy walking and the path brings us to the benches on the panoramic summit Kraguljše.
