Access to starting point:
From highway Ljubljana - Jesenice we go to the exit Lesce and follow the road towards Bled and forward towards Bohinjska Bistrica. We continue driving towards the lake Bohinj (Ribčev laz), where we come to a crossroad, where we continue straight on the left (south) side of the lake in the direction of Ukanc and waterfall Savica. This more and more narrow road, we then follow to a large parking lot at the mountain hut Savica. The parking lot is payable.
Path description:
From the parking lot, we go on the road which over a bridge crosses a river Savica. Further, we follow the path in the direction of Triglavska jezera. At first gently sloping path soon becomes steep and is ascending on the lower southern slopes of Komarča. After a good half an hour of walking, the path becomes even steeper and it brings us to technically demanding spots. The path on a wall of Komarča is nicely routed, but still at every step, the caution is needed, so that we don't slip. On harder spots we have fixed safety gear for help which help us to ascend safer to the top of the wall. The steep ascent, which lasts approximately one hour ends with a view into the valley on a parking lot, where we have parked the car. The steepness then decreases and the path in five minutes of easy walking brings us to the lake Črno jezero.
At the beginning of the lake, the path on the mountain pasture Viševnik and Pršivec branches off to the right, and we continue straight on the right side of the lake. On the other side of the lake, the path brings us to the next crossing. We continue on the left path in the direction of the mountain hut Dom na Komni (straight mountain hut Koča pri Triglavskih jezerih). The path ahead starts relatively steeply ascending and it soon brings us by the edge of Komarča. Next follows a pleasant walk on little-visited path, which slightly descends and then again ascends. The path by which with some effort we can hear roaring of waterfall Savica, is because of small number of hikers often crisscrossed with cobwebs. After a time we join wide path which leads from the mountain hut Savica direct on Komna. The mentioned path already after few steps it brings us to a crossing, where we continue left (right mountain hut Koča pri Triglavskih jezerih). Next follows only 5 more minutes of ascent and the path brings us to the mountain hut Dom na Komni.
Savica - Črno jezero 1:30, Črno jezero - Komna 1:35.
