Kneške Ravne (Prošček) - Koča na planini Razor

Access to starting point:
From the road Bača pri Modreju - Podbrdo, in the settlement Kneža we turn onto the road in the direction of Kneške Ravne. Further on, we ascend along the road which continues through the valley of the stream Kneža. Initially quite gentle and partly macadam road, higher up it starts ascending more steeply, on the steep part the road is mostly asphalt. Higher up, the road splits, and we choose the slightly right road which leads towards the mountain pasture Planina v Prodih and becomes macadam (left Kneške Ravne). Next follows a few hundred meters of ascent on the macadam road, then we park at an appropriate place before the gate.

Path description:
From the starting point, we continue on the macadam road over which there is a gate, we follow it in a few hairpin turns and after approximately 35 minutes we arrive at the forestry cottage.
At the cottage, we leave the road and walk on the right side of the cottage into the forest, where an easy-to-follow and still unmarked footpath continues. Next follows an ascent, mostly through the forest, occasionally a view also opens up in the direction of the pre-alpine hills. Next follows crossing of a torrent bed, then we reach the edge of the mountain pasture Planina v Prodih, where we also step onto the marked path.
We continue left (a dozen steps to the right is the hunting cottage) and continue walking on the Geological trail, which also carries the European footpath E7. The path ahead mostly gently ascends to the left, crossing occasionally steeper slopes of the Lower Bohinj Mountains. When we reach the ridge between Ljubinske stene and Masovnik, a nice view opens up towards Kojca, and the path stops ascending and gradually begins descending at the foot of the mentioned walls. Below the walls, from the left an once-marked path from Kneške Ravne joins almost unnoticeably.
We continue straight towards the mountain pasture Planina Razor, the path leads us directly below the cliffs, where especially in spring there is an increased risk of falling rocks. Next follows a traverse ascent and the path takes us into the forest, where it leads past a spring. After the spring, the path steeply ascends temporarily, after two hairpin turns it flattens again. A little further we cross a pasture fence, the path takes us from the forest to the upper part of the mountain pasture Kuk, to the area called Močila, where we bypass a few cottages along the lower side. Behind the cottages we reach a cart track, which we follow to the right (left to mountain pasture Kuk and parking lot), along it we quickly reach a junction, where to the right branches the path to Žabiški Kuk (also Žabijski Kuk) - path past Gradič (old military path).
We continue in the direction of Planina Razor and continue on the gentle macadam road, which crosses the western slopes of Žabiški Kuk. On the road, from which occasionally a nice view opens towards the northwest, where we see Rdeči rob, Vrh nad Peski, Grušnica, Tolminski Migovec and other surrounding mountains, and after approximately 25 minutes of further walking, we arrive at the place where the signs for the mountain hut direct us to the right, onto the path which traverses up above the road. Only a few minutes of walking follow and the path brings us to Koča na planini Razor.
