Krn - Planina Sleme

Access to starting point:
A) From the road Tolmin - Kobarid, a little before Idrsko road in the village Kamno branches off to the right. We go on the mentioned road, after we get to the village, we follow the signs for Vrsno. From Vrsno, where there stands the birth house of Simon Gregorčič, we continue on a narrow and steep road to the village Krn, where the road splits into two parts. To the left the road continues towards the mountain pasture Kuhinja, and we continue straight towards Mrzli vrh. We park above the last houses in the village, where there is nicely settled a smaller parking lot, where there is enough space for 4 to 5 cars.
B) We drive to Kobarid, and then we continue driving towards Drežnica. Immediately after the bridge over the river Soča, we turn right in the direction of village Ladra, Smast, Libušnje, Vrsno and Krn. When we get to the village Krn, we continue straight (left mountain pasture Planina Kuhinja), and we follow still narrow road to a smaller settled parking lot, which is located above the last houses in the village.

Path description:
From the parking lot, we continue on the road by which we've parked, and already after few steps it splits into two parts. We continue straight in the direction of Mrzli vrh and we continue on at first still wide cart track which gradually passes into a dense forest. Higher, the signs for Pretovč, Mrzli vrh and cave Puščavnikova jama point us to the left on a wide ascending footpath which quickly joins less beaten path from the mountain pasture Kuhinja. The footpath soon turns to the right and then it is ascending diagonally through the forest. A little further, we get to cave Puščavnikova jama, to which we have only few 10 strides of walking from the marked path.
We continue over occasionally a little thinner forest, moderately steep path brings us to a forest road which we follow left in the direction of the mountain pasture Sleme (right downwards Mrzli vrh and mountain pasture Pretovč). Only a little higher we get to the next crossroad, where from the right joins the path from the mountain pasture Polog.
We again continue in the direction of the mountain pasture Sleme, and the road which starts ascending steeper brings us into a lane of a dense forest. Higher, we step out of the forest and gradually less steep road brings us to the mountain pasture Sleme.
