Podljubelj - Robič (via Zavetišče na Kalu)

Access to starting point:
From the Ljubljana-Jesenice motorway, we take the Podtabor exit (Tržič, Ljubelj), then continue driving towards Ljubelj. After approximately 6 km of driving from the petrol station at Bistrica pri Tržiču, we leave the main road, as the signs for Podljubelj direct us right onto a local road. A little further ahead, we arrive at the next junction, where we continue right and then after a few tens of metres park in a suitable place in the middle of the village.

Path description:
From the starting point, we walk to the primary school in Podljubelj; there at the junction we continue left in the direction of Kal and Kofc. The path initially follows an asphalt road that moderately ascends along the Jezernica stream. When a few minutes higher the road makes a longer right bend, we leave it and continue slightly left on a wide and marked cart track. The cart track or worse road ends a little higher at the decaying house, and we continue on a worse cart track that passes into the forest. For a short time we still ascend on the right side of the stream, then we cross it and pass to the left side. A little further, we arrive at another stream, along which we ascend to the nearby homestead. We bypass the house on the right side and go left immediately behind it. A few metres higher the markings direct us right onto a grassy slope, along the edge of which we ascend to the nearby wooden cottage. Here the path turns slightly left and a little further crosses a pasture fence. For some time the poorly visible path continues across the pasture straight upwards, then, when we leave the pasture, it passes into the forest and a little higher crosses a cart track. We continue straight past a larger rock and continue the ascent in the direction of Kal. The path continues through a small valley and occasionally ascends more steeply. Higher we reach a cart track, along which we quickly step out of the forest and ascend to the nearby Zavetišče na Kalu.
From the shelter we continue along the macadam road, where we soon arrive at a signposted junction, where the "direct" path to Dom na Kofcah branches off left; we continue straight and further along the macadam road. A traverse ascent follows along the macadam road, from which we occasionally get a nice view of the Kamniško-Savinjske Alpe; the marked path past the chapel towards the Kofce pasture then turns left uphill from the road, while we follow the road to the nearby junction.
From the junction we continue right (sharply left we can reach Kofce) and gradually begin to descend; lower down the road enters a dense forest, where we also reach a junction of macadam roads.
We continue straight onto a worse cart track that runs between both roads and soon becomes quite steep. During the ascent along the cart track, looking back we get a nice view of the western peaks of Košuta; higher up the path turns left and brings us in a few minutes to the ridge, where it turns right and changes into a worse path. A little further we step out of the forest onto a small clearing, where we reach the forepeak; from the forepeak we continue for about 2 minutes along the worse path, which brings us to the scenic summit.
Podljubelj - Zavetišče na Kalu 1:20, Zavetišče na Kalu - Robič 0:55.
