Mojstrana - Vrtaška planina

Access to starting point:
We leave the Gorenjska highway at the Hrušica exit and follow the road ahead in the direction of Kranjska Gora. Just a little before the village of Dovje the road which goes to Mojstrana (Vrata, Kot and Krma) branches off to the left. We follow the road ahead in the direction of the Vrata valley and we drive there only a short time because we will soon notice mountain signposts for Vrtaška planina by the road. We park on the parking lot by the road which is situated a few meters ahead.

Path description:
From the parking lot, we descend along the road a few meters downwards, where a signpost points us to a wide footpath. The path initially ascends moderately and in a few minutes brings us to a junction, where we continue straight (right leads the path to the vantage point Grančišče).
The path soon after that crosses a shorter muddy part of the path, then turns left and then ascends steeper and steeper. The path ahead is steep and runs through the forest. After an hour and a half of walking, the steepness decreases and the path passes to scree slopes. Next follows crossing of a wide and with a fence secured artificial ledge (fence is intended for safety of livestock), from which a nice view opens up on surrounding peaks. The path then for some time returns into the forest and again steeply ascends. A little higher, the steepness decreases, we cross a pasture fence and in a few additional minutes of walking, we step onto the mountain pasture Vrtaška planina, where on the right side we notice a shepherd hut, which has an emergency bivouac in the attic of the house.
