Poljane (Spodnje Gorje) - Boršt (by road)

Access to starting point:
From the Ljubljana - Jesenice highway take the Lipce exit (Jesenice east), where we turn left in the direction of "Blejska Dobrava and Spodnje Gorje". Soon, when we drive into the railway underpass we are at the next crossroad, where we drive right - Bled, Gorje. Initially, the serpentine road ascends straight towards the west and soon in the left turn reaches the top or settlement Kočna. When we drive through it, we drive on the road for another 2 km. A few 100 m before the next (barely noticeable) settlement, which belongs to Spodnje Gorje, on a gentle left turn we notice a space (cart track) on the right side of the road, where we can park. The second option for the starting point can also be the space at the beginning of the mentioned settlement, which is situated on the left side of the road.

Path description:
From the starting point, we continue along the road to a small settlement, in which on the left side there is a catering facility with an asphalt side road, onto which we turn. After a short walk we find ourselves at a junction: straight ahead barrier of the forest road to Boršt, right hamlet with a few buildings. We continue straight, past the barrier on the uphill road, which first turns left. Soon, when the road turns sharply right, it leads us uphill towards the east for some time. Here a view gradually opens up a little towards Blejski kot, Lesce and Radovljica. When it brings us through a double bend, the road leads uphill towards the north. Then, when on the right we see a larger clearing, the forest road ends on the open part by the edge of the forest. Further, we follow the cart track in the same direction, which leads us uphill through the forest. Soon, when a track joins from the left, the path turns right. Here we can continue along it all the way to the top of the hill, which otherwise is not far anymore, but for a better view we can decide a little differently. At the mentioned right turn we leave the path and continue straight through the forest, across the saddle between Boršt and smaller forepeak from the left, to the edge of the steep and rocky northwestern slope of the hill. Here we encounter a narrow spur (continuation to the edge of the spur is not for the vertiginous!), along and from which we enjoy a nice view in several directions, and on the road which winds deep below us. From here towards the top we continue to the right; specifically along the edge of the rocky slope (cart track on our right), where we climb over roots towards the grass-covered section. (If before this ascent we noticed a path which heads slightly left onto the steep slope, we of course ignore it). While ascending towards the top a nice view now opens up on the settlement Kočna, on Jelenkamen and Golica, Javorniški rovt, and back towards the Julian Alps and Mežakla with part of the mountain pasture Obranca. Along the edge of the slope we continue over partly rocky terrain all the way to the top of the hill, which we reach in a short time. On the eastern slope of Boršt we can a few meters below the top also treat ourselves to an even nicer view, which stretches from Pusti rovt on the left, across the Karawanks and part of the Kamnik Alps, and the wide Ljubljana basin, to the slopes of Jelovica on the right.
