Makekova Kočna - Javornik above Jezersko

Access to starting point:
From the Ljubljana - Jesenice highway we take the Kranj - East exit and follow the road ahead in the direction of Jezersko. In Jezersko at the bus stop we turn right into the Makekove Kočne valley (direction Čedca waterfall, Veliki vrh and Češka koča mountain hut). The road then crosses Jezernica over a bridge, and we turn left just a few meters ahead at the intersection by the chapel towards the nearby sports field by which we park.

Path description:
From the parking lot by the sports field we continue on a macadam road which almost unnoticeably ascends parallel with the Jezernica stream. After a few minutes of easy walking, we will reach a smaller junction, where an ascending unmarked cart track branches off sharply to the right (by the junction usually stands a smaller cairn), on which we continue the ascent. The cart track immediately enters the forest and brings us to a junction, where it splits into two parts. We continue on the left cart track, beside which we soon notice a warning which informs us that the path ahead is dangerous (from here onwards during forestry works ascent is not recommended).
We continue the ascent on a relatively steep cart track, from which at first we still get some views of Virnikov Grintovec, then it passes into dense forest. Higher we cross two gullies from right to left, and after the second gully the path gradually turns a little to the right, or ascends next to it for some time. When then the cart track turns even a little more to the right we cross the gully from left to right. Here we need to pay attention, as approximately 50 m higher a unmarked footpath branches off to the left, whose beginning is harder to notice due to the new cart track. From the cart track we ascend to a smaller clearing, where we already find the beginning of the forest path. The path ahead turns to the left, then ascends diagonally across a relatively steep slope, first forested then also avalanche-prone. Higher the slope flattens, and we continue up the smaller valley straight ahead. In the lower part of the valley we get some views of Storžič and surrounding peaks, then the path enters dense forest through which it steeply ascends all the way to the Turni ridge.
Here we continue right (left Turni 1 minute) and the path quickly brings us to a smaller notch between Turni and Skubrov vrh. After the notch the path moderately ascends and after a short ascent brings us to the ridge south of Skubrov vrh.
When we step onto the mentioned ridge we continue right (left via easier pathless terrain to Skubrov vrh 2 minutes) and continue the path along the old wire fence which ascends through the spruce forest. Higher we steeply ascend for a short time, then the forest thins and the path brings us to the Javornik ridge, where it turns left. We continue along the gentle ridge, following the occasionally poorly visible footpath to a smaller clearing from which a nice view opens up. Above the clearing the path enters the forest and after some 10 steps of further walking brings us to the indistinct and forest-covered summit of Javornik.
