Medvedova konta - Brda (east path)

Access to starting point:
From the highway Ljubljana - Jesenice, we take the exit Lesce and follow the road in the direction of Bled; there at the traffic-light crossroads, signs for Pokljuka direct us to the right. We follow this road, which in the lower part runs through some villages and later starts to ascend more steeply, to Mrzli Studenec (mountain pasture, which is located a good 50 meters behind the crossroads, where the road to Bohinj branches off to the left downwards). In the middle of the mentioned mountain pasture, the road to Medvedova konta, Pri Rupah and mountain pasture Javornik branches off to the right from the main road. Here we turn right and follow the road to the next crossroads, where we continue right in the direction of Medvedova konta (straight ahead to mountain pasture Javornik). The road further, after a short ascent, descends and brings us to the next crossroads, where we continue left in the direction of the mountain hut Blejska koča. We then follow this road to the parking lot in front of the barrier.

Path description:
From the parking lot, we continue on the rough road closed with a barrier, which quickly changes into a cart track. The path from the mountain pasture Javornik soon joins the moderately steep cart track. We continue the ascent on a very wide cart track, which in a gentle ascent in a few minutes brings us to the grazing area of the mountain pasture Lipanca. Here the path turns right and in a moderate ascent leads along the right lower edge of the mentioned mountain pasture. Next follows crossing of a grassy slope and the path, which again brings us into the forest, makes a sharp right turn at the NOB monument, after which we come to the shepherd and mountain hut on the mountain pasture Lipanca.
From the mountain pasture, we continue right on an at first poorly visible and even more poorly marked path, which after a short ascent brings us to the upper edge of the mountain pasture, where there is also a smaller junction. We continue slightly left in the direction of Lipanski vrh, Brda and Debela peč on the path which on the right side bypasses a larger sinkhole. Only a little further, from the "main" path branches off the path towards Lipanski vrh. We continue slightly right in the direction of Debela peč on the path which gradually starts to ascend steeper and steeper. When we pass this somewhat steeper part of the path we come to the next junction, where we continue straight in the direction of Debela peč (left Lipanska vrata and Brda). We continue on a gently undulating path, from which already after a few more steps to the right branches off the path to the mountain pasture Klek. The well-marked path then bypasses the interesting peak Spodnja Brda (1844m) on the left side and thereafter starts to ascend more steeply on increasingly less vegetated slopes. When we reach the spacious ridge the steepness eases and the path brings us to a less noticeable junction, where we continue left in the direction of the peak Brda (right Okroglež and Debela peč). The path ahead ascends more steeply and after 10 minutes of walking among the dwarf pines brings us to the summit.
