Access to starting point:
A) We drive to Preddvor, then continue driving towards Zgornje Jezersko. When we arrive in Kokra, we will quickly reach a transformer, where the starting point of the trail to Dom Čemšenik is. We can park here already, or we can drive approximately another 100 meters ahead, where, on the left below a smaller wall, we will notice the cyclists' rest area, where there is also some space for parking.
B) From Zgornje Jezersko we drive towards Preddvor. At the end of the settlement Kokra, we cross the stream Čemšenik; immediately after the bridge, on the right beside the cyclists' rest area, we park in a suitable spot beside the road. We can also park 100 meters ahead on the parking area by the transformer, which is located on the left side of the road.
Route description:
From the starting point, we continue along the main road in the direction of Jezersko, where we cross the Čemšeniški potok stream, after the stream we go right onto a side road, along which there are signs for Davovec, Kopa and Skutman. After the junction over the bridge we cross the Kokra river, at the homestead pr Hkavc we go right. After a shorter diagonal ascent we arrive at the last house, behind which we go left uphill onto a macadam road, from which, still before the hayfield, we go right onto a wide cart track, which enters the forest and starts to ascend more steeply. There follows an ascent along the wide cart track or poorer road; the quite steep path higher up makes a few hairpins, at the junctions we follow the wider path. We follow this path all the way to Zapečnikova planina, which we recognize by the fact that we have arrived at a panoramic slope from which a nice view opens towards the west.
At the beginning of Zapečnikova planina, where the wide cart track turns right, we continue slightly left onto a path that ascends an indistinct ridge and then turns right. From the ridge a nice view first opens towards Kočna and Grintovec, the path then enters the forest and starts ascending more steeply. A few more minutes of ascent follow and we arrive at the marked summit of Skutman.
From Skutman we continue towards Kopa and Davovec, where we first descend along a ridge path that soon brings us into a sparser forest, from where a nice view opens towards the Grintovci. After the panoramic section the path returns to the forest and ascends temporarily, then descends to a smaller saddle, where we join the path from Možjanca.
We continue straight ahead (right downhill to Možjanca) and continue along the ridge. After about a minute the path temporarily deviates slightly to the right from the ridge, then returns to it and ascends along it all the way to the summit of Kopa.
The described path is not marked, but it is marked at a few junctions.
Starting point - Zapečnikova planina 1:00. Zapečnikova planina - Skutman 0:10. Skutman - Kopa 0:35.

Along the route: Zapečnikova planina (840m), Skutman (911m)
