Podljubelj (Sroberje) - Bistriška planina (by road)

Access to starting point:
We leave the Gorenjska motorway at the Podtabor exit, then follow the road in the direction of Ljubelj. We drive past the exit for Tržič, past the settlement of newer houses, and then soon after the smaller underpass we take the first turn-off to the right, continuing sharply right to the nearby company Mikro S, where the described path begins.
When returning towards the motorway, along the main road the mandatory direction is to the right, so we have to enter Podljubelj to turn around; a better option is to go over the overpass, right after the overpass, then sharply right just before the centre of Podljubelj onto the main road towards the motorway. We can also return through Tržič.

Route description:
From the parking lot at the company Mikro S we descend a little in the direction of Tržič, at the nearby crossroad we go sharply right and ascend to the overpass, over which we pass to the other side of the main road. On the other side of the overpass we go left onto the macadam road (right Podljubelj), where we go past Kramarjeva guba; a little further the road splits, and we choose the upper right road (the lower road leads to Kajžerjeva guba), which shortly enters the forest and begins to ascend transversely. Higher we arrive at a crossroad, where we continue sharply right (if we continue straight, a little further we join the marked path from Tržič).
From the crossroad a transverse ascent to the right follows, and occasionally a nice view opens in the direction of Košuta and towards Storžič, higher also to the massif of Kočna. After some time the road brings us to the hunting observatory, where from the crossroad we continue sharply left (the road straight leads towards Peči). The path ahead leads us under a smaller scree, and we follow it to the wooden holiday cottage, where it changes into an initially still wide cart track.
Here we go right, and from the left the marked path from Tržič joins us, which soon leaves the cart track. We continue on the cart track, where at the smaller crossroad we go left; when the marked path joins us again, we go right.
From here blazes accompany us, and we ascend moderately for a short time, then gradually begin to descend and quickly reach the forest road, which we follow to the right. A gentle walk follows along the edge of Bistriška planina; when we reach the road Brezje pri Tržiču - Bistriška planina, we go right. Some slight ascent follows, and at the untidy parking lot we continue right onto the mountain pasture, through which we ascend to the mountain hut on Bistriška planina.
