Access to starting point:
From Bled or Jesenice we drive to Zatrnik, and then we continue driving towards Pokljuka. After Zatrnik we turn onto the first road left (i.e. at the road sign between 5.5 km and 6.0 km), and then we drive another few hundred meters, to the first bigger right turn. After the turn, the road which descends to the mountain pasture Smrečica branches off to the left, and we park only a little further on an appropriate place by the road.
Route description:
From the starting point, we continue on a macadam road which is gently ascending, after a longer left turn, where we also leave the route of a former ski slope of the ski area Zatrnik, the road stops ascending, and occasionally further it also descends a little. While walking on the road, we then also cross the route of the former ski lift Berjanca and a little further also the ski slope Berjanca, and a little further some view opens up towards the Karawanks. After a short panoramic part we reach a marked path Bled (Zaka) - Pokljuka, which we quickly leave because we still continue on a macadam road.
From the crossing ahead the road is mostly gently to occasionally moderately ascending, and after a time from the left joins the marked path from Bohinjska Bela - path over Slamnike. Here a few steps ahead, only a little before the NOB memorial, in the direction straight or slightly towards the left a path to the few minutes distant Turn (1249 m) branches off, and we continue right on a marked path which continues on the road.
At the next crossing, which is located not far away, we leave the road and continue left with the path in the direction of Galetovec (straight Belska planina).
The path ahead leads us on a pleasant cart track, which after a few minutes we leave because signs for Galetovec point us to the left, on at first poorly noticeable footpath which descends by the edge of the forest to a smaller valley, where it passes into the forest. Through the forest, we follow the blazes and the forest path, on which in a few minutes we ascend to a panoramic peak.
Description and pictures refer to the condition in the year 2017 (May).
