Polje - Planina Osredki

Access to starting point:
From the Ljubljana - Jesenice highway we take the Lesce exit, then we continue driving towards Bled and Bohinjska Bistrica. From Bohinjska Bistrica we continue on the main road towards Lake Bohinj, and past the village Kamnje we need to pay attention, because on the right side, only a few meters before the beginning of the village Polje, we park on a parking lot by the river Sava Bohinjka.

Route description:
From the parking lot first carefully cross the road, then for a short time continue along the main road towards Polje. When we arrive in Polje, continue left on a local road, along which we quickly walk to a smaller crossroad, by which we notice the first signposts for Orožnova koča, Planina Osredki and Črna prst. We continue in the mentioned direction and further walk on a narrower asphalt road, which in a gentle ascent brings us to the next crossroad, where we continue on the lower right road (left Bohinjska Bistrica). The path ahead brings us to the beginning of the village Žlan and a little further to the center of the mentioned village. Above the village the asphalt ends and macadam road brings us to a sort of turning point and a trough with water (to here we can also come by car, which shortens the path by approximately 20 minutes).
From the trough continue left, where first over a smaller bridge we cross the nearby stream, then we start moderately ascending along the edge of an extensive pasture. A little higher we cross the pasture fence, so we pass to the inner side of the pasture. Further we ascend through the extensive pasture, the path mostly leading through very sparse forest. Higher we leave the pasture, the path passing into dense forest. Further we cross a heavily eroded cart track, then for a short time ascend along a smaller torrent stream. The path ahead ascends to a poorer forest road, along which for some time we continue the ascent. When we arrive at the crossroad where we join a wider macadam road (road leading from Ravne to Planina Storeča raven), we follow it to the left and even descend a little (when we reach the road we do not continue straight onto the ascending cart track, on which the mountain signpost partly misleadingly points). After a short descent a marked cart track branches off to the right.
We continue on the slightly overgrown cart track, which after a few minutes of further walking brings us to a marked junction.
We continue straight (left Črna prst past Orožnova koča and planina za Liscem) on the cart track, which higher brings us to a smaller valley through which we ascend to the next forest road. When we step on the road we continue a few steps to the left, then the mountain sign for Črna prst directs us right into the forest, where it starts to ascend steeply. The path a little higher crosses an overgrown clearing (fern and raspberry bushes) and then returns into the forest, through which it continues all the way to Planina Osredki.
