Koča pri Savici - Lake Jezero v Ledvicah

Access to starting point:
From the Ljubljana–Jesenice motorway, take the Lesce exit and follow the road towards Bled and further towards Bohinjska Bistrica. Continue driving towards Lake Bohinj (Ribčev Laz), where you reach a junction and continue straight along the left (southern) side of the lake in the direction of Ukanc and Savica waterfall. Follow this increasingly narrow road to the large parking area at Koča pri Savici. Parking is chargeable.

Path description:
From the parking area, we turn right towards Črno jezero, Koča pri Triglavskih jezerih and Hotel Zlatorog (straight ahead to Slap Savica and Dom na Komni). The path initially leads along a gravel road that crosses the Savica River over a bridge. Just beyond the bridge, signs for Komarča direct us left (straight to Hotel Zlatorog) onto a path that is initially quite wide and relatively gentle through the forest. Soon, the path starts to climb more steeply and a bit higher brings us to the spot where the path to the Savica spring and Velika Savica cave branches left, while we continue right on the increasingly steep path.
The well-maintained and relatively wide hiking path soon enters very steep and slippery slopes of Komarča, where there is also a great danger of falling rocks. The path continues steeply up the mostly forested wall of Komarča, with fixed protections—mainly steel cables—aiding on difficult sections.
Higher up, the path opens some views towards Bohinj and leads to a short technically demanding section, where, with the help of staples and a steel cable, we cross a gully that is not particularly exposed. The path then continues steeply for some time and, with the help of some protections, brings us to the edge of Komarča, from where a beautiful view opens to our starting point. A short moderately steep ascent follows, then the path begins to descend gently towards Črno jezero, which we reach in less than five minutes of further walking.
Near the lake is a marked junction where the path to Planina Viševnik and Pršivec branches right; we continue slightly left and follow the marked path that bypasses Črno jezero on the right side. On the other side of the lake, the path from Dom na Komni joins from the left, and we continue on the relatively gentle path along the edge of Lopučniška dolina. Higher up, the path begins to climb moderately and leads us along the edge of overhanging cliffs to a small spring that dries up in dry periods.
We continue on the marked path, which near Bela skala turns sharply right and climbs steeply. Several minutes of steep ascent follow, then the path levels and brings us to a marked junction where the path from Planina Blato via Prode joins from the right. We continue left towards Koča pri Triglavskih jezerih and in about ten minutes reach Dvojno jezero. The marked path bypasses the lake on the right and, before we reach the other side, brings us to a junction where the path to Štapce and Mala Tičarica branches right.
Here we continue straight and in a few minutes reach Koča pri Triglavskih jezerih.
From the hut, we continue in the direction of Triglav, Dolič, Hribarice, Prehodavci and Veliko Špičje; the path first leads past the dam and artificial lake Močivec. The path bypasses the lake on the right (eastern) side and then moderately ascends through the Triglav Lakes Valley, which is covered with increasingly sparse forest.
Still in the zone of sparse forest, the path forks; we take the slightly right path towards Prehodavci and Hribarice (left path to Veliko or Lepo Špičje over the Zgornje Komne plateau), leading first through sparse larch forest, then under the screes of mighty Kopica and later Mala Zelnarica. Later, the path climbs a bit more steeply for a while and brings us to a small saddle from which a beautiful view opens onto Jezero v Ledvicah.
Here we leave the marked path and descend along a poorer track—which is not technically demanding—to the largest of the Triglav Lakes.
