Access to starting point:
A) From Ljubljana or Kranj we drive to Škofja Loka, from where we continue towards Gorenja vas. In Gorenja vas we continue right in the direction of Cerkno and Žiri. The road then runs past the village Trebija, after which we turn right in the direction of Cerkno (left Žiri). We follow this road to the village Sovodenj, where we park on a parking lot between the store and the fire station.
B) From Tolmin we drive to Cerkno and we follow the road ahead towards Škofja Loka. When we come to the village Sovodenj we park on a parking lot between the store and the fire station.
Path description:
From the parking lot, we continue on the asphalt road in the direction of Ermanovec and Cerkno. After a few minutes of the ascent on the main road, we get to a marked crossroad, where the road to Ermanovec branches off to the right. We go on this road, that runs by a scenic stream and after a few minutes of additional walking brings us to the next crossroad.
We continue straight (right Ermanovec on the road) on the road which still runs by the earlier mentioned stream. The road then over a smaller bridge crosses the stream and past a smaller hamlet brings us to a marked crossing.
We still continue on the road (left Ermanovec panoramic path) which we follow only about 10 meters to the right turn. At the beginning of the turn, just before the road crosses the stream we leave it and we continue the ascent on a marked footpath which starts gently ascending through Miklavževa grapa. The path ahead ascends for quite some time by the edge of the stream and then turns right and starts ascending steeper. A well-marked footpath, then a few times crosses a cart track and higher also joins it. Next follows a few minutes of a somewhat gentler ascent on a cart track, which passes out of the forest onto panoramic grassy slopes on which we also arrive at the road. We continue right through a smaller hamlet and the road then in a moderate ascent brings us to a crossroad near the mountain hut on Ermanovec. Here we continue left (right peak Ermanovec) and after a few additional steps, we get to the mentioned mountain hut.
