Podbrdo - Možic

Access to starting point:
A) First, we drive to Škofja Loka, and then we continue driving towards Železniki and Tolmin. When we get to Podbrdo, we need to pay attention, because we will immediately behind the church turn right onto a narrower local road which starts ascending by the river Bača. We park on an appropriate place by the road, or on a smaller parking lot by the local cemetery.
B) From the road Idrija - Most na Soči, at the settlement Bača pri Modreju we turn right, or left, if we come from the direction of Posočje, and we continue driving towards Podbrdo. At the end of the settlement Podbrdo, we need to pay attention, because we will just before the church of St. Miklavž turn left onto a narrower local road which starts ascending by the river Bača. We park on an appropriate place by the road, or on a smaller parking lot by the local cemetery.

Path description:
From the starting point, we continue on the initially still asphalted road, from which soon a marked footpath towards Vrh Bače branches off sharply to the left. Further, we continue past an old residential house, behind which we gradually enter the forest. Through the forest, we ascend on a relatively well-marked and partly also quite steep mountain path, which higher levels out and brings us out of the forest onto a short panoramic slope, across which we walk to the nearby small church of St. Lenart.
At the church, we step onto a narrow road, along which we quickly walk into the village Bača pri Podbrdu. Through the small and panoramic village, we follow the blazes, which lead us onto a cart track that starts ascending through the forest. The narrower and initially somewhat overgrown cart track already after a few minutes joins an old mule track. We follow the wide mule track to the right, which already after a few minutes brings us to a smaller crossing, where we continue on the upper left path in the direction of Vrh Bače (slightly right Petrovo Brdo).
Further, we ascend for quite some time on a well-preserved and quite wide mule track, which higher we leave for a short time, as the path leads us along a marked shortcut. Higher, the path on the mule track a few times is blocked by some fallen trees, and then we approach the cliffs of the peak Šance, where we leave the mule track. Next, we ascend on a quite steep path, along which in 5 minutes of further walking we arrive at the hunting cottage on Vrh Bače.
From the hunting cottage, we continue in the direction of Črna prst, then only a few steps below the indistinct saddle Vrh Bače, we continue right in the direction of Šavnik and Možic. The path ahead steeply ascends for a short time through the forest, then brings us onto a grassy clearing, where the path temporarily levels out. The path ahead returns to the forest, where already after a short ascent it brings us to an old military bunker that is converted into some kind of holiday cottage; the path bypasses it on the right side. A moderately steep path then brings us to the edge of the ridge (here we can in a few steps ascend to a nice vantage point - view of Baška grapa and Koblo) along which we then ascend through more or less dense forest. Higher, the path turns left and completely levels out. There follows a good 5 minutes of walking, then the path brings us onto a larger grassy slope between Šavnik and Slatnik. Here we continue on an easy path that turns right and after a few steps brings us to a marked crossing.
We continue straight (left Šavnik) and continue the path across the meadow named Na poljani. After a few steps, we bypass the emergency bivouac and a little further we come to a less noticeable crossing, where we continue slightly right (slightly left mountain pasture behind Šavnik). The marked path then enters the forest, where it starts to ascend relatively steeply. Higher the forest thins out, and the path brings us to a smaller saddle between Možic on the left and Slatnik on the right. Here we continue sharply left (right Slatnik and Lajnar) and continue in the direction of Možic. The path ahead continues along an old mule track, which we then follow to the summit of Možic, which we reach after approximately 10 minutes of further walking.
