Rudno polje - Mali Draški vrh (via Jezerce and Srenjski preval)

Access to starting point:
From highway Ljubljana - Jesenice we go to the exit Lesce and follow the road ahead towards Bled. In Bled at the traffic lights, the signs for Pokljuka point us to the right. Ahead we drive through Gorje and past the abandoned ski slope Zatrnik to Rudno polje on Pokljuka (large parking lot, barracks and shooting range).

Path description:
From a large parking lot opposite the barracks on Rudno polje at first we cross the road, and then we look for the beginning of the forest road (by the beginning of the forest road are also signs for Triglav), which leads towards the ski slope Viševnik. After approximately 10 minutes of walking on the mentioned road we get to the foot ski slope, where the marked path splits into two parts. The right path leads towards Viševnik and mountain hut Blejska koča na Lipanci, and for a short time, we still continue on the road in the direction of Triglav, mountain hut Vodnikov dom na Velem polju and Studorski preval. When the road returns into the forest, we will on the left notice a marked footpath which starts gently and higher moderately ascending through the forest. After few minutes, we step back on the road which we reach on medium-sized parking lot, where there is enough space for about 20 cars (to here it is possible also with a car, this shortens the path for approximately 20 minutes).
When we reach the parking lot, few 10 meters we walk on the road, and then signs lead slightly right on a marked and well-beaten path which starts ascending through the forest. After few minutes, the path flattens and gradually passes on a relatively steep southern slopes of Plesišče (1790 meters). Next follows few minutes of crossing, and then we step on some kind of broad ridge of the before mentioned summit. Here the marked path turns right (straight downwards leads unmarked, but well-beaten path towards Planina Konjščica) and descends a little. A little further, we will notice left below us the mountain pasture Konjščica. Our path then stops descending and passes out of the forest into dwarf pines. The path which is again ascending then runs below the steep rocky cliffs and soon after that, it brings us to a crossing, where we join the path from the mountain pasture Planina Konjščica.. Next follows a shorter ascent and the path brings us into a nice small valley named Jezerce, where the path flattens. Here are also signposts, which point us to the right following the signs »Viševnik«.
At first, we walk on a gentle footpath in the direction towards Mali Draški vrh. After that, the path turns a little to the right and starts ascending through the valley between Mali Draški vrh and Viševnik. At first, we are ascending on the left side of the valley, and in the upper part path turns slightly to the right and follows an ascent by a crumbly slope to Srenjski preval.
From the saddle Srenjski preval we continue left on unmarked and poorly visible path which starts ascending steeper and steeper on and by indistinct gully (sharply left Studorski preval). The path in the lower part is ascending a little right from the gully, after that for a short time passes on its left (direction of ascent) side. Higher gully ascends even steeper, and the path starts vanishing. Further, we are ascending through the gully steeply upwards (carefully because of very crumbly terrain) and by "path" we will notice some very old and already entirely faded blazes. After a good 20 minutes of ascent we step on precipitous ridge, from which a nice view opens up through a valley Krma and peaks, which surround it.
From here we can ascend on the nearby eastern peak, to which we have few meters of easy climbing on exposed ridge, or on a little more distant, but few meters higher western peak. To get there at first we have to descend a little and then on quite exposed ridge in few 10 strides we ascend on a panoramic peak.
