Access to starting point:
First, we drive to Kamnik, then we continue the drive in the direction of Kamniška Bistrica and the cableway to Velika planina. In Stahovica, we continue left (direction Kamniška Bistrica and cableway Velika planina) along the moderately ascending road, then we follow to the large parking lot near the lower cableway station to Velika planina (the parking lot is located on the right side of the road).
Path description:
From the parking lot, we head onto the macadam road in the direction of Kraljev hrib and Velika planina. At the first right turn, a marked path towards the mountain pasture Dol, Velika planina and Konj branches off to the left, and we follow the wide road to the first bigger left turn. In the middle of the turn, immediately after the power line pole, we leave the road which leads towards the inn Kraljev hrib and continue right on the forest road which past the chapel brings us to the next left turn (to here possible also with a car). Just like at the first turn, now we also continue right, only now we continue on the cart track which branches off from the road at the animal feeding site.
We continue on the gentle cart track which gradually changes into an easy-to-follow hunting footpath. The footpath for some time crosses slopes towards the right, crosses Šimnov plaz, then in numerous zig-zags starts to ascend steeper. Higher up, we reach a clearly visible and partly marked junction. On one of the trees located directly at the junction, we notice sign R and below it an arrow left (R - marks the approach via the hunting path to Rigelj), and we continue right on the traverse path which leads towards the hunting cottage Sivnik. We continue on the easy-to-follow but leaf-covered path, which through gullies and occasionally steeper slopes brings us to the decaying hunting cottage Sivnik. To here we need approximately 1.5 hours of moderate walking.
At the hunting cottage, another of the paths leading to Rigelj branches off to the left, and we continue straight on the traverse path, which soon after the hunting cottage passes to the other side of the indistinct ridge. The path ahead crosses numerous gullies and steep slopes and brings us over the slopes of Škorence and Kačjek to the entirely forested Gamsove streže. Here the long-lasting crossing of the slopes ends, the path turns slightly to the left and starts to ascend steeply. Higher up, the footpath turns towards the right again and then brings us in a traverse ascent to the place where we step onto the marked path Stahovica - Velika planina.
When we step onto the marked path, we continue left (straight to Planina Kisovec, right Stahovica) on the path which gradually starts to ascend steeper and steeper. Higher up, the path levels out and brings us over the pasture fence to the southern edge of the Velika planina plateau. Just a few meters above the pasture fence, we cross a wider path, but we continue straight on the somewhat less visible footpath which soon brings us to the first huts on the pasture. We follow the gentle footpath which leads us across the pastures to the memorial to those who died in the crash of the allied aircraft in 1944. Just a few meters before the memorial, we continue left (right Jarški dom) and then on the moderately steep path in 5 minutes of further walking arrive at Črnuški dom na Mali planini.
