Access to starting point:
From Bovec we drive towards the Predel border crossing. In the village of Log pod Mangartom, immediately after the bridge over the Predilnica we turn right in the direction of Koritnica. The road, initially asphalted and then macadam, quickly takes us to the parking lot at the beginning of the entrance to the central part of TNP.
Path description:
From the parking lot we turn onto the right road, which is closed with a barrier. The road runs all the time close to the stream and crosses it several times. Towards the end the road becomes narrower and leads us past a few houses to a junction. We head slightly to the right on the footpath following the signs for Jalovec, Pod Špičkom, Mangrt (left Planina Brdo). The path then goes into the forest and soon brings us to a marked junction.
We continue right following the signs for Zavetišče pod Špičkom, to the left the path leads towards Kotovo sedlo and Mangart.
The path soon brings us to a stream which we must cross, then we ascend for a short time through sparse forest. This is followed by an ascent along a grassy slope and a short ascent over scree to the entry into the climbing part of the path.
When we enter the wall, we first ascend left upwards along the steel cable. The path soon becomes even steeper and ascends almost vertically several times along the steel cable with the help of numerous pegs. In the continuation we continue ascending along the steep slope with the help of steel cables, then the path turns somewhat to the right and soon brings us into the forest, where the steepness eases somewhat. From the forest the path brings us to a slope overgrown with bushes and tall grass. The bushes then end, followed by an ascent along an increasingly beautiful valley. From the path beautiful views open up towards Mangart, Jalovec and the precipitous walls of Plešivec under which we are ascending. In the last part the valley turns slightly to the right, followed by an ascent over scree to the saddle Čez Brežice.
At the saddle we leave the marked path and head right towards the west on an unmarked trail. The trail initially runs on the right side of a short steep ridge. Then it turns slightly to the left and begins to ascend along a quite steep grassy slope. The path is quite poorly trodden, but with some effort we can still follow it. Due to the steep terrain, considerable caution is also required. In the last part the path turns to the right and ascends towards the ridge. When we reach the ridge we continue to the right and in a few steps we reach the scenic grassy summit.
