Kokra (Podlebelca) - Vrh Korena

Access to starting point:
A) We drive to Preddvor or to the settlement Tupaliče, which is situated by the main road Kranj - Zgornje Jezersko, and then we continue driving in the direction of Jezersko. When we arrive at the settlement Kokra, at the road sign between 8.5 km and 8 km, we turn right over a bridge into the hamlet Podlebelca, where the described path begins. At the starting point there are no designated parking spaces; we park in a suitable place nearby.
B) From Jezersko we drive towards Preddvor, at the road sign between 8 km and 8.5 km, we turn left over a bridge into the hamlet Podlebelca, where the described path begins. At the starting point there are no designated parking spaces; we park in a suitable place nearby.

Path description:
After the bridge, we notice red hiking signposts, which point us to the road that ascends through the hamlet Podlebelca. Past the houses we follow the blazes, and above the hamlet the asphalt ends. After a short ascent through the forest we arrive at a larger chapel, behind which we go left onto a marked cart track. The cart track immediately splits, and we choose the right one, along which the blazes also continue. A little higher we reach an asphalt road that leads towards the farms Roblek, Pestotnik and Lovrin, and we follow it to the first right turn. After the turn the footpath continues, which quickly ascends to the point where we cross the road leading to the farm Lovrin. We continue through the forest, and the path gradually turns onto an indistinct forested ridge, along and beside which it then ascends. Higher we also cross an asphalt road leading to the farm Roblek, and we ascend more steeply for a few more minutes, then we join the cart track leading from the farm Roblek.
We continue straight ahead on the initially wide cart track, which we soon leave as the blazes direct us right onto a footpath. The still not too steep path then leads us to a larger rock, where there is the next marked junction. We continue straight (right Krvavec) along the path, which gradually starts to ascend more steeply and leads us higher below an extensive rocky scree that is already visible from the valley of the Kokra River. The path bypasses the scree slightly to the left, then, when we are already a bit higher, it turns right and approaches the rocky cliffs on our right completely. The path ahead leads us in a moderate ascent into a short belt of dwarf pines, after which we reach Lojtra. Lojtra is a slightly exposed passage along a wide and well-secured ledge. After crossing this section, only a short traverse of the slopes follows (steel cable), after which the steepness of the slopes eases. Ahead we continue along the path ascending through dwarf pines. After 15 minutes the dwarf pines end and the path brings us to the expansive pastures of Dolga njiva, where we reach a junction. We continue straight (right Krvavec) and after a few more steps the path leads us to the old shepherd's hut on the mentioned pasture.
From the mentioned hut we continue along the left side of the pasture on a poorly visible path, which after 5 minutes of further walking brings us to the other, renovated hut. Again we keep slightly left, and the still poorly visible path soon leads us into a belt of dwarf pines, where it becomes more distinct. There follows a crossing of a short steep gravelly slope, and then a gentle path in a few minutes of pleasant walking across meadows overgrown with dwarf pines brings us to the junction at Škrbina.
Here we continue right in the direction of Krvavec across Ježa along the path that moderately ascends the slope overgrown with dwarf pines. After about 15 minutes of ascent the path brings us to a junction, where we turn sharply left towards Vrh Korena, which we reach after one more minute of walking.
