Pred Belo - Ojstrica

Access to starting point:
We drive to Kamnik and follow the road ahead towards the valley of Kamniška Bistrica. Approximately 2 km after the lower station of the cable car to Velika planina, we will notice on the right side of the road a parking lot and mountain signposts for Presedljaj, Konj and Korošica (the parking lot is located after the bridge).

Path description:
From the parking lot, we head onto the path in the direction of Presedljaj, Korošica, Konj and Ojstrica. Already after a few meters the path turns to the right, where at first it barely ascends, then it starts descending and after a few minutes joins a wide cart track. We continue the ascent on a gentle cart track, which soon crosses a torrent, and then ascends gently to moderately towards the head of the valley Kamniška Bela.
After a good 30 minutes of walking from the starting point, we come to a marked junction, where we continue right on the marked path (left to waterfall Orglice and Korošica via Šraj pesek). The cart track soon after the junction changes into an increasingly steep footpath, which leads us further through dense forest. Higher, the path turns slightly to the left and crosses a torrent gully. A little further, the path over Najnar štant branches off to the left almost unnoticeably (a demanding and exposed path that leads to Korošica, higher it joins the path over Šraj pesek), and we continue straight on the marked path, which starts to ascend in numerous switchbacks. Higher, the path steeply ascends for a short time and brings us to a nice viewpoint with a table and bench.
The path ahead slightly descends, crosses a steep slope and brings us to a torrent gully. Here the path turns to the left side of the slope, ascends at first with the help of some pegs and higher steel cables, then returns to the forest, where it steeply ascends for some time. Higher, the path temporarily flattens, then steeply ascends again and brings us to the saddle Presedljaj in a few minutes of further walking, where there is a marked junction.
We continue left in the direction of Korošica (right Konj) on the path which starts ascending along the left side of an indistinct ridge. After a few minutes, the path turns to the right and flattens. We continue on a partly quite overgrown footpath, which gently ascends through a belt of dwarf pines. A little further, the path crosses an exposed slope above the valley Lučka Bela, where there is also a memorial plaque to the deceased mountaineer. Just a few meters behind the memorial plaque, the slope flattens and brings us to an unmarked junction, where an unmarked path towards Vršiči and Vežica branches off to the left.
We continue straight on the marked path, which heads north and with a few shorter ascents and descents quickly brings us to the place where we join the more trodden path from the valley Lučka Bela. Here we continue left and past the branch-off of the path to Lučkega Dedca walk to Prag (1910 m).
From Prag we continue straight and follow the wide footpath, which starts descending transversely towards the green plain of Korošica. After 10 minutes of descent, the path flattens and only a few steps of easy walking separate us from Kocbekov dom.
From Kocbekov dom we continue on the marked path in the direction of Ojstrica. The path already a few meters above the hut enters the belt of dwarf pines, where it gradually starts ascending ever steeper. After a good 20 minutes of ascent from Kocbekov dom, the path flattens and transitions to grassy slopes, which are soon replaced by scree. The path ahead crosses two successive gullies, then starts ascending more steeply on an increasingly panoramic slope. The path ahead leads us past two less noticeable junctions (in both cases we continue right in the direction of Ojstrica, left Planjava and Škarje) and gradually starts turning more and more to the right. Higher, the path becomes even steeper and transitions to a quite scree-covered slope. Further, the path flattens for a short time and through a narrow passage brings us to the main ridge of the Kamniško-Savinjske Alpe. Once on the ridge, we continue right on a very steep path, which ascends further over rugged rock. We follow this very steep path, aided by some pegs, all the way to the summit of Ojstrica, which we reach after approximately 15 minutes of further walking (in the final section there is a high risk of falling rocks).

On the way: Presedljaj (1613m), Prag (1910m), Kocbekov dom na Korošici (1808m)
