Kopišča - Planina Dol (Martinj steza)

Access to starting point:
First, we drive to Kamnik, then we continue driving in the direction of Kamniška Bistrica and the cableway to Velika planina. In Stahovica we continue left (direction Kamniška Bistrica and cableway Velika planina) on the moderately ascending road, then we follow past the bottom station of the cableway to Velika planina. Only a few hundred meters ahead from the cableway to Velika planina, we come to a smaller hamlet named Kopišča. Here we turn right and then we park at an appropriate place by the road.

Path description:
From the starting point, we continue on a cart track which gently ascends through the forest. Higher up, the cart track becomes quite rough and gradually starts to ascend steeper and steeper. A bit higher, we will notice an old hunting path which branches off from the cart track and then starts to ascend relatively steeply. The path, which ascends moderately to steeply through the forest, then brings us higher to old mining adits. The path ahead transitions to steep but still forest-covered grassy slopes. Further, the trail flattens for a short time, then starts steeply ascending in zigzags through the forest. Higher, we reach the foot of very steep slopes, where with the help of a small wooden bridge we enter rocky terrain. Over a short very steep step, a steel cable assists us, and the path then transitions to steep and mainly in wet slippery-dangerous grassy slopes. A little further, the path completely flattens, then for quite some time crosses the slopes to the right.
The path ahead brings us to a nice viewpoint, after which the path soon transitions to a cart track and then past the hunting cottage brings us to a macadam road, on which we walk to Planina Dol in a few minutes.
