Stara Fužina - Triglav (via Planika and Mali Triglav)

Access to starting point:
From the Ljubljana-Jesenice motorway, take the Lesce exit and follow the road towards Bled and further towards Bohinjska Bistrica. Continue driving towards Lake Bohinj (Ribčev laz), where you reach a junction, continuing right towards Stara Fužina. In Stara Fužina, at the junction by the chapel, turn sharply left onto the ascending road towards planina Blato, planina Vogar and Voje valley. Follow this road to the parking lot where road toll and parking fees are collected.

Path description:
At the beginning of the parking lot, the signs for the Mostnica gorges and waterfall direct us right onto a wide path, along which we reach Hudičev most in a few minutes. Continue straight (right across the bridge to Uskovnica via planina Blatce and Stara Fužina), a little further, at the information board for the Mostnica gorges, go slightly right. At the next junction, go slightly right again (left Vogar, also possible to Voje), then we reach the place where they collect the fee for maintaining the path through the Mostnica gorges (adult entrance fee was 3 euros in June 2018).
At the mentioned place, the path forks, and we choose the left or right path. Both paths continue near the gorges (there is a side path off the right path to see the elephant, a natural feature), later they merge into one path, along which we ascend to the gravel road. Follow the road right, and quickly reach the Planinska koča na Vojah.
Continue along the road that runs through Voje valley, keeping to the signs for the Mostnica waterfall. A little further, the road forks, and we can continue left on the slightly shorter road with signs for Velo polje, or right on the path a few minutes longer that passes by the Mostnica waterfall.
Near the waterfall, at the head of Voje valley, both paths merge, and we follow the marked path towards Triglav and Vodnikov dom na Velem polju.
The fairly wide path ahead enters dense forest and ascends above the waterfall, which we can partially see below the path, then the path turns left and ascends westwards in a few switchbacks, leading us along relatively steep slopes. At about 1150 meters above sea level, the path levels out, a little further it takes us out of the forest to planina Spodnja Grintovica, where there is a water trough that is only open in summer months.
At the beginning of the planina, a path branches left towards planina Zgornja Grintovica and planina Krstenica, but we continue straight and on the upper part of the planina re-enter the forest; the path ahead is narrower and no longer resembles a mulatjera. A steeper ascent follows through the forested slopes of Tisovec, which is a side ridge of the Stogov ridge; higher up, as the path crosses to the northern slopes of this hill, it levels out and enters the indistinct valley of Jurjevčeva vrtača.
Here, at the start of the valley, a fairly inconspicuous path branches right downwards towards the former planina Vrtača.
Continue along the marked path that leads us through gradually thinning forest; higher up, the path turns right and after a few more minutes of walking brings us to a poorly marked junction in the area called Razorje, from which we continue right towards Vodnikov dom na Velem polju (slightly left planina pod Mišelj vrhom).
A steeper ascent follows again along the indistinct ridge of the lesser-known peak Na Zagonu (1819 m), then the path levels out and brings us to a marked junction where we join the path from Pokljuka or Uskovnica.
Continue left towards Vodnikov dom (sharply left Velo polje, right Pokljuka) and after about 20 minutes of traversing the slopes of Tosca, we reach Vodnikov dom na Velem polju, where there is the next junction.
Here too, continue straight towards Triglav; the path begins to ascend transversely along the slopes of Vernar, becoming technically demanding higher up. Some traversing follows, aided by a fixed cable, higher up we reach a steep drop where we ascend rocky steps with the help of numerous pegs and a fixed cable.
The path ahead levels out, the slope becomes less steep, and near Konjsko sedlo also somewhat more grassy.
We easily descend to Konjsko sedlo; from the marked junction on the saddle, head left towards Dom Planika pod Triglavom (straight Triglavski dom na Kredarici and Dom Valentina Staniča pod Triglavom, right Krma) and begin a fairly steep ascent westwards. For a while, we approach Mokra skala (2266 m), then the path turns right and enters an indistinct ridge where it temporarily levels out. The marked path higher up bypasses a small cirque on the right side, then begins turning left. Another about ten minutes of ascent follows with fine views of the Triglav massif and surrounding peaks, arriving at Dom Planika pod Triglavom.
From Planika, continue along the right side of the mountain hut on the marked path towards Triglav (left Triglav via Triglavska škrbina, right Kredarica). The path ahead first gently descends, then gradually begins to ascend. After a few minutes of easy walking, we reach a short rocky section where we transversely ascend a slightly exposed ledge. The path ahead turns slightly right and from the rocky cliffs enters a scree area, over which we ascend to the start of the climbing section.
A clearly visible marker from afar directs us into a distinct gully, through which we ascend with the help of a fixed cable to a fine viewpoint. The path ahead turns left, first steeply ascends, then continues over rugged rock. Occasionally very steep and well-protected with cables at all difficult sections, the path brings us higher to the ridge of Mali Triglav, where the path from Kredarica joins from the right.
Continue straight along the ridge path, which in a few dozen steps brings us to the summit of Mali Triglav.
From Mali Triglav, from where a fine view opens to the main Triglav summit and most of the path ahead, the path gently descends, then brings us to an indistinct saddle between the two summits. The path ahead resumes ascending along a well-protected ridge path, but the protections may be partially damaged due to weather conditions. We follow this very scenic and on sections very steep path all the way to the summit of Triglav.
