Path description:
From the crossroad at the homestead Enci we continue left and walk through the yard of a nearby homestead. Behind the houses, we continue through a pasture, then the road passes into the forest, where it turns right, and further moderately ascends. Higher up, a few more hairpin turns follow, at the junctions we follow the road, not the cart tracks which branch off from the road. Higher, the road reaches an indistinct forested ridge, where it turns slightly to the right, and in the middle of the bend a wider cart track branches off to the right, by which we can continue towards Lepenatka, but we continue on the road until we reach the main ridge between Kranjska reber and Lepenatka (saddle Kunšperk).
Immediately when we reach the ridge we continue left on the marked footpath (right Lepenatka), which first moderately, then steeply ascends along the forested ridge. During the ascent the path leads us over a short drop, then gradually flattens and higher brings us to a forest road.
When we reach the road, upon looking to the right a view opens up on the two-thousanders of the Kamnik Savinja Alps, and we continue on the road which bypasses Kašni vrh on the left side, and when after a few minutes of traverse ascent we reach the road leading from the Črnivec pass towards the Volovljek pass, we continue a few steps to the right, then at the next crossroad left upwards towards Kašna planina.
The path ahead crosses a grazing fence, then we continue the ascent on the road or on a marked shortcut. Wherever we continue, after about 5 minutes we will arrive at the hut on Kašna planina.
From the hut we continue on a well-trodden path, which in a moderate ascent and with nice views, in approximately 20 minutes of further walking brings us to the summit of Kranjska reber.
