Access to starting point:
From Kranjska Gora over the border crossing Rateče we drive to Trbiž / Tarvisio. In Trbiž we continue left in the direction of Bovec and follow the road to the intersection near Rabeljsko jezero lake. Here we continue right in the direction of Nevejski preval / Sella Nevea. From the saddle, we descend on the road through numerous tunnels and galleries to the Reklan side. Approximately 1 km after the last tunnel or gallery we park on one of the parking lots by the road.
From Bovec, we drive to the border crossing Predel, from which we descend to the Italian side. Just a little after Rabeljsko jezero lake we come to the intersection, where we continue left in the direction of Nevejski preval / Sella Nevea. Further, follow the above description.
Path description:
From the parking lot by the road we then descend a few dozen meters to the spot where on the left side of the road we notice the mountain signs for mountain pasture Gorjuda (Casera Goriuda). The path immediately leads into the forest, where it first ascends gently and then ever steeper. After a good 20 minutes of walking, the path brings us to the first more demanding part, where with the help of steel cable we cross a wide and secured artificial ledge. A similar passage then repeats two more times; on all passages we are accompanied by the trickling of water drops, so that we are quite thoroughly wet. The path then ascends even steeper on a steep and in wet slippery-dangerous slope. All key spots, especially the passages over gullies, are well secured. The problem arises only if we set out on the path after heavier rainfall or thaw, when the gullies are full of water and crossing is then impossible. The steepness then eases somewhat and a fairly overgrown path then through the forest brings us below rocky cliffs, where the path turns sharply left. With the help of steel cable we cross one more short slightly exposed spot, then the difficulties disappear. Further, the path quickly brings us out of the forest and before us we see an old shepherd hut (converted into a bivouac) on mountain pasture Gorjuda, where there is a path junction.
We continue on the right side of the hut in the direction of bivouac Marussich on a fairly overgrown path, which after a short ascent brings us back into the forest. The fairly overgrown path a little further with the help of a small bridge crosses a torrent stream and then brings us into a sparse mostly larch forest. Here the path comes very close to the mighty limestone pavement slabs, then retreats slightly to the right and continues ascending parallel to them. When the path flattens for a short time, on the right side we notice the entrance to an ice cave. Here we can cool off a bit; ascent into the cave due to ice can be deadly dangerous. Further, an increasingly scenic path over a series of small valleys brings us to the high-mountain world of the Kanin mountain range. After a further few minutes of walking on plateau-like terrain we come to a poorly marked junction, where we continue left (right Tamaroz). The path ahead ascends through karst terrain full of limestone pavements and sinkholes, so we carefully follow the path, which after a good 20 minutes of ascent from the junction brings us to the path Rifugio Giberti - Žrd. Here we continue right and follow the relatively gentle path to bivouac Marussich, which we reach after a few minutes.
