Planina Blato - The lake Jezero v Ledvicah (via Štapce)

Access to starting point:
From highway Ljubljana - Jesenice we go to the exit Lesce and follow the road towards Bled and forward towards Bohinjska Bistrica. We continue driving towards the Lake Bohinj (Ribčev laz), where we come to the crossroad, where we continue right in the direction of Stara Fužina. In Stara Fužina at the crossroad at the chapel, we turn sharply left on an ascending road in the direction of the mountain pasture Blato, mountain pasture Vogar and valley Voje. The road ahead brings us to the spot, where the road toll or parking fee has to be paid, we follow it forward to the next crossroad, where we continue left (right Voje). Then we follow the road to the next crossroad (we drive for quite some time), where we turn sharply right in the direction of the mountain pasture Blato (straight mountain pasture Vogar). We follow this road to the parking lot above the mountain pasture Planina Blato.

Path description:
From the parking lot on the mountain pasture Blato we go on the road a little back to the signposts at a cart track. Here we go on a cart track which at first steeply ascends and then it is moderately ascending and in ten minutes of walking, it brings us to a crossing, where we go left (straight mountain pasture Planina v Lazu). We then follow the cart track through the forest all the way to cottages on the mountain pasture Planina pri jezeru. Here a view opens up on surrounding hills.
We bypass the mountain hut on the left side and the path in a gentle descent brings us to a crossing, where we continue straight on a cart track (left mountain pasture Viševnik). Mostly rocky cart track which runs on an indistinct small valley few times steeply ascends and after a half an hour of walking from the mountain pasture Planina pri Jezeru brings us to a mountain pasture Dedno polje, where we come to the next crossing.
We continue straight in the direction of the mountain hut Koča pri Triglavskih jezerih (right valley Za Kopico) on the path which is further gently to moderately ascending through mostly a thin forest. The path from which a nice view opens up on the mountain chain Spodnje Bohinjske gore then descends and brings us on a mountain pasture Ovčarija, where there is the next crossing.
We continue on the right path in the direction of the mountain hut Koča pri Triglavskih jezerih over Štapce (straight path over Prodi). The path ahead is at first moderately ascending through a thin larch forest and then it ascends steeper and through a lane of dwarf pines brings us to panoramic Štapce.
Here we continue left downwards towards the lake Dvojno jezero, which we clearly see below us (right Tičarica). The path immediately from Štapce starts descending steeply on very well secured path (path is secured with a steel cable, in the lower part also with a ladder). After less than 5 minutes of descent path passes on the scree and then descends to the lake Dvojno jezero, where we continue right towards the mountain hut (left path over Prodi and lake Črno jezero). A gently sloping path then on the right side bypasses lake and it quickly brings us to the mountain hut Koča pri Triglavskih jezerih.
From the mountain hut, we continue in the direction of Prehodavci and Hribarice and we continue past the artificial lake Močivec. Already immediately behind the lake path starts moderately ascending on a less and less vegetated valley. Pleasant and a panoramic path then leads us through the valley of Dolina Triglavskih jezer, and it quickly brings us to a marked crossing, where the path on Veliko or Lepo Špičje branches off to the left.
We continue in the direction of Prehodavci and we continue on a relatively gently sloping path, which at first crosses a lane of thin larch forest and then we continue on a pleasant small valley. The path ahead moderately ascends and brings us on a smaller saddle, from which a nice view opens up on lake Jezero v Ledvicah.
If we want to the lake, we get there in few minutes descend on a poorly beaten, but technically undemanding footpath.
Blato - Dedno polje 1:30, Dedno polje - Dvojno jezero 1:45, Dvojno jezero - Ledvica 1:00.
