Planina Polog - Source of Tolminka

Access to starting point:
First, we drive to Tolmin, from there we follow the road in the direction of Zatolmin (we leave the main road at the traffic light). In Zatolmin, we notice the hiking signposts for Javorca, which direct us onto an ascending road towards Javorca. The occasionally quite narrow and in places precipitous road brings us, after approximately 8 km of driving, to a smaller intersection, where the road towards Javorca branches off to the left upwards. We continue straight, we follow the road only for approximately 100 m, and then we park at an appropriate place by the barrier.

Path description:
From the starting point, we continue on a macadam road (the road is closed to public traffic), which after a few minutes of easy walking brings us to the central part of the mountain pasture, where a few cottages stand. Behind the mountain pasture, the road becomes a little worse, and after a few minutes of further walking brings us to a junction, where the path to the mountain pasture Planina na Prodih branches off to the right (access to the mountain pasture is very interesting, as we have to cross the river Tolminka, which we do using a hand-operated cableway). We continue straight, and the road eventually turns into a cart track and higher up into a well-preserved mule track. The path then becomes somewhat steeper and leads us past two benches and higher past a fresh rocky outcrop (earthquake in Posočje 1998), to a grazing fence, over which we step onto the southern edge of the mountain pasture below Osojnica. Just a few meters further, the path splits into two parts. We continue along the right lower path, by which in a gentle descent we quickly arrive at the hunting hut at the source of the Tolminka.
