Access to starting point:
A) First, we drive to Kamnik, and then we continue driving towards Stahovica and the mountain pass Črnivec. A few hundred meters before the mountain pass Črnivec we leave the main road which leads towards Gornji Grad and we continue driving sharply left in the direction of the mountain pass Volovljek (Kranjski Rak). From the mentioned mountain pass we continue straight (left road which leads to Velika planina, right Štajerski Rak) and we start descending towards Luče. Lower down, the road flattens a little and brings us into the valley Podvolovljek. Further on, we first drive past the turn-off of the road which leads into the valley Lučka Bela, then also past the bar pri Gamsu. After the bar, we need to pay attention, because only a few hundred meters further the road which leads towards the mountain pasture Podvežak and Ravne and farm Planinšek branches off to the left (by the spot where we leave the main road, there is a road sign approximately 11 km). Further, we drive on an initially still asphalt road which then ascends towards the plateau Dleskovška planota. Higher, the road towards Planinšek branches off to the right, and here we continue on the left upper road, which a little further brings us to the next crossroad, where we continue straight in the direction of the mountain pasture Ravne (left mountain pasture Podvežak). Further on a somewhat rougher road, then we follow it to the beginning of the mountain pasture Ravne, where we park in an appropriate place by the road.
From the main road to the mountain pasture Ravne is approximately 10 km.
B) First, we drive to Luče, and then we continue driving towards Kamnik. When by the road we notice a road sign which shows 10.5 km, we need to pay attention to the right turn-off, because only a little further to the right the road towards the mountain pasture Podvežak and Ravne and farm Planinšek branches off. Further, we drive on an initially still asphalt road which then ascends towards the plateau Dleskovška planota. Higher, the road towards Planinšek branches off to the right, and here we continue on the left upper road, which a little further brings us to the next crossroad, where we continue straight in the direction of the mountain pasture Ravne (left mountain pasture Podvežak). Further on a somewhat rougher road, then we follow it to the beginning of the mountain pasture Ravne, where we park in an appropriate place by the road.
Path description:
At the beginning of the mountain pasture Ravne (also Ravni) we notice wooden mountain signposts for Veliki vrh, Korošica, Molička planina and Dolga trata, which direct us left towards the nearby cottage, which is located on the edge of the mountain pasture. We bypass the cottage on the left side, then we pass into a narrow strip of forest, where the blazes lead us left. The path ahead leads us across a clearing, across which it ascends transversely into the forest. Further on, we ascend through the forest, where we soon cross a grazing fence. Higher up, the forest starts to thin out, or to change into a strip of dwarf pines. On some spots somewhat less trodden, but all the time nicely followable little path flattens higher up and brings us to the lower edge of the pastures Dolge trate. Here the path completely flattens and in a few dozen steps of further walking brings us to the shepherd's hut on Dolge trate.
From the shepherd's hut we continue left in the direction of Molička planina, Korošica, Veliki vrh and Zelene trate (slightly right Dleskovec). The path ahead leads us across the pastures Dolge trate and ascends gently to moderately. Higher up, the path flattens and brings us to a smaller saddle, after which the path leads us past a watering place for animals. We bypass the watering place on the left side, and the path brings us just a few meters further to a smaller junction, where we continue slightly right in the direction of Veliki vrh and Korošica (straight downhill Korošica via Vrtače). Further on, the path passes onto the panoramic western slopes of Dleskovec, across which it starts to descend transversely towards the junction on Zelene trate. After a short descent we arrive at the mentioned junction, from there we continue left in the direction of Korošica (right mountain pasture Ravne via Korita). Just a little further we arrive at the place where the path to Veliki vrh branches off to the right.
We continue straight in the direction of Korošica and Molička planina along the path which occasionally descends slightly and rises again. The path ahead circles the slopes of Veliki vrh and brings us to a junction, where the path to the mentioned summit branches off to the right upwards. Here we continue straight along the path which just a little further brings us to the saddle Prag, where the next junction is. We continue straight (sharply left mountain pasture Podvežak) along the marked mountain path, which gradually starts to descend. After a good 10 minutes of descent, the path flattens and brings us to a smaller marsh, after which we reach the next junction. We continue slightly left in the direction of Korošica (straight Molička planina, right Robanov kot) along a pleasant mountain path which starts to ascend moderately. Higher up the path turns somewhat to the left, then joins the path from mountain pasture Podvežak. We continue right in the direction of Korošica along the transverse path, along which in a few minutes of further walking we ascend to Sedelce (1900 m), where there is a marked junction.
We continue straight downhill (left Prag, right Ojstrica via Mala Ojstrica) along the marked path which starts descending towards Korošica. After a few minutes of descent we step onto the extensive grassy slopes of Korošica, across which we then walk in a few minutes to the mountain hut.
From Kocbekov dom we continue in the direction of Planjava and Kamniško sedlo. The path ahead first descends slightly, then through a series of smaller valleys in a gentle ascent brings us to the steeper part of the path. The path then ascends beside the gully upwards and crosses it higher up. During the ascent, ever new views open up to us, and a natural window catches our eye. The path then passes from grassy to rocky slopes, where we quickly step onto the secured part of the path. The well-secured and in places quite steep path then brings us to Srebrno sedlo, where a nice view opens onto the Kamnik side. This is followed by traversing the slopes to the west, which we cover in a moderate ascent. Further on we reach the next junction, where we continue right towards the summit of Planjava (left Kamniško sedlo). From the increasingly panoramic path the green meadows finally depart as well, replaced by gray rock. A little below the summit, paths from Klemenča jama and Kamniško sedlo also join us. Only a short ascent along the summit slope of the mountain remains.
