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:
At the end of the parking lot a macadam road by which there are signposts for Triglav branches off to the right. We go on this road which is slightly ascending and after ten minutes brings us to the ski slope. Further, we continue on the road from which soon a marked path towards Triglav branches off to the left, and we continue on the road which a little higher crosses the ski slope. On this part marked path on Viševnik branches off to the left upwards, on which we continue the ascent. The path ahead is ascending by a ski track upwards to the next ski lift. Here the path turns left upwards along the second ski lift and soon brings us to the top of the ski track. The path ahead on a slightly covered slope is ascending through nice small valley, which in the summer time is full of flowers. Next follows few minutes of steeper ascent to decaying hunting observatory. On this part we leave the path on Viševnik and go right on a poorly visible footpath, that is gently ascending on a meadow upwards. A little higher footpath becomes more noticeable and passes into dwarf pines. The path ahead crosses side ridge of Viševnik named Kačji rob and then passes into a high mountain terrain. Nice path with numerous karst phenomena then brings us to a crossing, where we continue on the left path in the direction of saddle Srenjski preval (right Blejska koča), which we reach after few minutes of additional walking.
From the saddle Srenjski preval we continue right (left Viševnik) on the path which already after few additional strides, it brings us to the next crossing. Here we continue straight upwards (left Studorski preval) on the path which starts ascending steeply on a crumbly terrain. A very steep path leads us on a slope almost straight upwards (very crumbly and danger of falling stones). After half an hour of ascent from the saddle Srenjski preval path brings us on the main ridge, from which we have to the top only few steps of walking towards the right.
On the way: Srenjski preval (1959m)
