Na kopiš - Planina Spodnja Konjščica (by road)

Access to starting point:
From the Ljubljana - Jesenice highway, take the Ljubelj (Tržič) exit, then continue driving towards Ljubelj. Just before the gas station in Bistrica pri Tržiču, leave the main road and continue driving right in the direction of Tržič. Further on, drive through Tržič in the direction of Dolžanova soteska, then at the end of the town continue right in the direction of Lom pod Storžičem and Grahovš. On the part between Lom pod Storžičem and Grahovš, a road branches off to the left towards the farm Tič and hamlet Potarje. Continue driving towards Tič on a somewhat narrower asphalt road all the way to the crossroad below the farm Tič, where the asphalt ends. This is our starting point, named "Na kopiš" (Na kopišču), where there is also a signpost and an ecological island for waste from the mountain farms. Park at a suitable place by the crossroad (to the right a road branches off for farms Tič and Strmec, to the left for farms Pinč and Urh). On the signpost we also notice signs for planina Konjščica (left for a variant of access on the macadam road all the way to planina Sp. Konjščica, which is described further and more suitable for cycling, right for a variant past the farm Tič - see the variant of access and description of the path "Na kopiš - planina Spodnja Konjščica (mimo Tiča)".

Path description:
From the starting point, continue on the macadam road in the direction of planina Konjščica (on the sign: planina Konjšca), which first moderately ascends to the saddle east of Vratni vrh (1081 m). After the saddle, the road flattens, then leads us without major changes in elevation along the western to northwestern slopes. Soon we arrive at the next crossroad, where we continue slightly right (slightly left along the lower road to homestead Urh-Pinč).
From the crossroad onward, the road begins to ascend more steeply through the forest. Higher up, the path also leads past a few smaller streams, then after a short panoramic section, from which a nice view opens towards Košuta and other surrounding mountains, it levels out completely. After the saddle south of Zadnji vrh (1218 m), the road begins to descend moderately, then after a few minutes brings us to the next crossroad, where we continue towards Konjščica (straight to planina Vetrh). A few minutes of steep ascent follow on the road, which gradually turns right. Then comes traversing the slopes to the right, where the path first leads past a small wooden hut, a bit higher also past a bench by Žegnani studenec. Just above the bench, we arrive at a crossroad, where we continue left (straight to Grahovše), then begin ascending more steeply again. Higher up, the path leads across a panoramic and steep slope; at the end of this section, a marked path from Lom pod Storžičem and Grahovš joins from the right.
Continue on the road, which leads past a grazing fence, and behind it we quickly emerge from the forest and thus reach the shepherd's hut on planina Spodnja Konjščica.
Description and pictures refer to the condition in 2015 (July).
