Spodnje Danje - Kremant (Ratitovec)

Access to starting point:
A) First, we drive to Škofja Loka, and then we continue driving in the direction of Železniki and Tolmin. A few kilometers after Zali Log we get to a crossroad at Podrošt, where we continue straight in the direction of Sorica and Soriška planina (left Petrovo Brdo and Tolmin). When above Sorica from the left the road from Petrovo Brdo joins, we continue right, and then towards Soriška planina we drive only to a crossroad, where roads towards Zgornje and Spodnje Danje branch off to the right. We continue on the lower road towards Spodnje Danje. After approximately 1 km of additional driving, we get to Spodnje Danje, where the described path begins. In the village there are no designated parking spots. Lately because of the reconstruction of the road Podrošt - Sorica, this road is often closed. In this case, we use the detour by continuing at Podrošt in the direction of Tolmin, and then at the first crossroad to the right. On a quite steep road we get to Sorica, where we join back the main road towards Soriška planina.
B) From the direction of Baška grapa we drive to Petrovo Brdo, and from there we continue left towards Soriška planina. A little after we join the road from Sorica, we get to a crossroad, where roads towards Zgornje and Spodnje Danje branch off to the right. We continue on the lower road towards Spodnje Danje. After approximately 1 km of additional driving, we get to Spodnje Danje, where the described path begins. In the village there are no designated parking spots.
C) From Bohinjska Bistrica we continue driving towards Soriška planina, and from there we start descending towards Sorica. When after a few kilometers of descent roads towards Zgornje and Spodnje Danje branch off to the left, we continue on the lower road towards Spodnje Danje. After approximately 1 km of additional driving, we get to Spodnje Danje, where the described path begins. In the village there are no designated parking spots.

Path description:
In the middle of the village Spodnje Danje is a crossroad, where we continue left (right church of St. Marko), after that the road immediately splits into two parts. One runs on the left, the other on the right side of the older house. Behind the house both roads join, and past the last house we continue straight on a cart track which starts ascending through a panoramic hayfield. The hayfield is slowly replaced by sparse forest, and at some junctions we continue straight. Higher, the path leads past two smaller boulders, then we once again cross a grazing fence and step on the road which leads from Sorica towards Zgornje Danje. We follow the mentioned road to the right, and it gradually passes from the forest to more panoramic slopes. Next follows a turn to the left and with views on the cliffs of Ratitovec we reach a smaller crossroad right before Zgornje Danje. We continue on the left upper road, which after a few 10 m changes into a rocky cart track, which we follow only to the nearby wooden shack, where on the left side we will notice the beginning of the marked path which leads to Ratitovec.
The path first ascends through the forest, then crosses a relatively new clearing, where we also cross a cart track. At this spot because of fallen trees there are no marks, so orientation on this part is somewhat harder, but if we find the trail which continues in the same direction, we have no major problems with that either. The path ahead returns to the forest for some time, then flattens and brings us to a larger meadow (mountain pasture Spodnji Jirn). On the other side of the meadow, at the watering place for animals the path turns slightly to the left and then right into the forest. The path ahead brings us to a rougher cart track, on which we walk only a short time, as then poorly visible signs direct us left onto the mountain path, which we follow through the forest to a relatively new wooden log cabin.
From the log cabin, where we also step out of the forest, we continue in the same direction and continue the ascent on a poorly visible path, which ascends transversely slightly to the right. The increasingly panoramic path, from which beautiful views open up on Blegoš, Črni vrh and Porezen, then higher brings us to an old military bunker, where we can rest or take a nice panoramic shot. From the bunker we continue a few more minutes on the poorly trodden path, then we join the path Soriška planina - Krekova koča.
Here we continue the path in the direction of Soriška planina (right Altemaver and Krekova koča). The path ahead first rises moderately, then gradually starts descending and turning to the left. After a short descent the path starts ascending again, then in less than 5 minutes of further walking brings us to Kremant.
Spodnje Danje - Zgornje Danje 45 minutes, Zgornje Danje - Kremant 1:45.
