Makekova Kočna - Turni

Access to starting point:
From the highway Ljubljana - Jesenice we go to the exit Kranj - east and follow the road ahead in the direction of Jezersko. In Jezersko at the bus stop we turn right into the valley of Makekova Kočna (direction Čedca waterfall, Veliki vrh and Češka koča mountain hut). The road then over a bridge crosses Jezernica, and only a few meters ahead at the crossroad at the chapel, we turn left 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 is almost unnoticeably ascending parallel with the stream Jezernica. After a few minutes of easy walking, we will get to 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 passes into the forest and brings us to a junction, where it splits into two parts. We continue on the left cart track, by which we soon notice a warning, which informs us that the path ahead is dangerous (from here ahead in the time of forestry work ascent isn't recommended).
We continue the ascent on a relatively steep cart track, from which at first we still get some views of Virnikov Grintovec, and then it passes into a dense forest. Higher, we cross two torrents from the right towards the left, and the path after the second torrent gradually turns a little to the right, or ascends for some time next to it. When the cart track turns even a little more to the right we cross a torrent from the left towards the right. Here we need to pay attention, because approximately 50 m higher to the left an unmarked footpath branches off, whose beginning is harder to notice because of the new cart track. From the cart track, we ascend to a smaller clearing, and there we already find the beginning of the forest path. The path ahead turns to the left, and then it ascends diagonally over a relatively steep, at first forested and then also avalanche slope. Higher the slope flattens, and we continue through a small valley straight upwards. In the lower part of the valley we get some views of Storžič and surrounding peaks, and then the path passes into a dense forest, through which it steeply ascends all the way until we arrive on the ridge. When we step on the ridge we continue left (right Visoki vrh, Javornik and Skubrov vrh), and on a slightly exposed path in a minute of additional walking we step on the top of Turni.
