Access to starting point:
First, we drive to Mislinja (from Slovenj Gradec or Velenje to here), then we continue driving in the direction of Mislinjski Jarek. When Mislinja ends, the road still leads along the river Mislinja. Higher up, at the confluence of Glažuta and Mislinja, there is a crossroad where we park. The homestead Pestotnik is located somewhat above the confluence; before the crossroad there is a smaller dam. In summer and when there is no snow, we can drive further and shorten the path as desired.
Route description:
From the confluence we continue on the right road, which continues to ascend along the river Mislinja. Already after a few tens of meters a rougher road to the homestead Pestotnik branches off to the left, and we continue straight, still moderately ascending. Higher up we arrive at the next crossroad, this time marked, from which we continue straight in the direction of Rogla and Komisije (the right road leads towards Tolsti Vrh above Mislinja). Soon after the crossroad the road turns sharply to the left and gradually distances itself from the river Mislinja; a bit higher it brings us out of the forest to Spodnja Komisija, where there is a crossroad by a few houses, from which we continue right (straight to Glažuta). Spodnja Komisija soon ends, and the road then ascends transversely to the right. At the left bend the path PP7 joins us from the right, and we walk along the road to the former shepherd village Zgornja Komisija, where we also leave the wider macadam road and continue right with the path onto a narrower road that leads through the village to the last house.
From the last cottage, by which there is also an arranged trough with water, we continue on the cart track that goes into the forest. After a short ascent the cart track splits, and we choose the lower cart track (left to Rogla), which continues without major changes in elevation.
At the fork there are also signs for Lukov slap, which indicate another 10 minutes, but we will reach the waterfall in less than 5 minutes of further walking. The waterfall is located to the right of the path and is visible from top to bottom. There is no arranged path to the base of the waterfall.
The description and pictures refer to the conditions in 2016 (November).

Along the route: Spodnja Komisija (1080m), Zgornja Komisija (1230m)
