Path description:
From the starting point, we continue left on a bad road, and after few 10 strides from the crossing we go left and we continue walking on a wide ascending cart track. For some time we are ascending diagonally towards the left, where the path leads us past a smaller source, we then continue sharply right in the direction towards Razpok. A little further, the cart track again turns to the left, and at the next crossing we go once again right towards Razpok. Next follows some diagonal ascent towards the right, and the cart track changes into a forest footpath which is a little worse beaten, but it is quite easy followable, and higher by the path there are also few older blazes. During the ascent occasionally a view opens up a little towards the Karawanks and part of Kamnik Savinja Alps, and the path leads us also past a smaller religious symbol. The path which mostly runs through the forest, higher crosses a cart track, and then in few minutes of additional walking brings us to a macadam road, where we also step on the edge of Razpok, where a little further there are few cottages, from the edge of plateau, at one of the cottages, also a breathtaking view opens up on Gorenjska and the Alps.
From Razpok, where we step on a wider macadam road we go right and we continue walking on the macadam road which leads us by the edge of plateau. During a light descent occasionally a nice view opens up on Karawanks, and a little further also on Julian Alps, where we clearly see Triglav. The road further avoids edge of Jelovica a little to the left and it brings us on Ažmanov rovt, where there are some holiday cottages.
