Access to starting point:
We drive to Mojstrana, then follow the signs for the Vrata valley. We continue driving through the Vrata valley, about 100 meters before the 10 km road sign, and we will notice a cart track that branches off to the right perpendicular to the main road. This is the start of the described path. The marked parking lot where parking is allowed is located about 500 meters further along the main road.
Path description:
We head onto the cart track that leads into the forest and then past a smaller house, where we continue slightly to the left on a footpath. Through the forest, we ascend slightly to the left towards the Rdeči potok stream. A little before the stream we come to a junction, where we turn right onto the path over Brinje. At the junction there is a cairn, and on the tree there is carved some kind of face and the letter L. The path then begins to ascend steeply through the forest and then turns slightly to the right and slowly brings us to steep grassy slopes. In zigzags we then ascend for some time over steep slopes towards Brinova glava. At Brinova Glava (1571m) the path turns slightly to the left and the slopes become less steep again. Here a small path also branches off to the right leading to the summit of Brinova Glava. The path continues through increasingly sparse forest and occasionally we ascend a grassy slope. Such a path then brings us to the scree under the slopes of Kopic. Here we first ascend the scree, but when the path turns left onto a wide scree, it is better to continue on the grass on the right side of the scree. Soon our path will also turn left and cross the scree. Then we ascend for some time on grassy slopes on the left side of the scree. Towards the end the path turns somewhat towards Šplevta to the left side of the valley and then ascends the scree all the way to the saddle between Dovški Križ and Šplevta.
On the saddle we turn left and continue the ascent on pathless terrain, initially relatively steeply upwards. After a few minutes the steepness eases and the increasingly panoramic "path" brings us after a few more 10 steps to the summit of Šplevta.
