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 we 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 dolina Voje. Follow this road to the parking lot where they collect road toll and parking fee.
Path description:
At the beginning of the parking lot, 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 ahead (right across the bridge 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 arrive at the place where they collect the fee for maintaining the path through the Mostnica gorges (adult entrance fee was 3 eur in June 2018).
At the mentioned place, the path splits, 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 climb to the gravel road. Follow the road to the right, along it we quickly reach the Planinska koča na Vojah.
Continue along the road that continues through the Voje valley, but we follow the signs for the Mostnica waterfall. A little further, the road splits, and we can continue left along the slightly shorter road with signs for Velo polje, or right along the path a few minutes longer that leads past the Mostnica waterfall.
Near the waterfall, at the head of the 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 climbs above the waterfall, which we can partially see below the path, then the path turns left and climbs westward in a few serpentines, leading us along relatively steep slopes. At an altitude of about 1150 meters, 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 open only in the summer months.
At the beginning of the pasture, a path branches left towards planina Zgornja Grintovica and planina Krstenica, but we continue straight and on the upper part of the pasture re-enter the forest, the path ahead is narrower and no longer resembles a mule track. A steeper ascent follows through the forested slopes of Tisovec, which is a side ridge of the Stogov ridge, when higher up the path crosses to the northern slopes of the mentioned hill, it levels out and enters the indistinct valley Jurjevčeva vrtača.
Here, at the beginning of the valley, a fairly inconspicuous path branches right downward towards the former planina Vrtača.
Continue along the marked path that leads us through gradually sparser 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 crossing 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, higher up it also becomes technically demanding. Some traversing follows, aided by a fixed cable, higher up we reach a steep drop where we climb stone 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 at the saddle we 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 westward. 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 to turn left. Another about ten minutes of ascent follows with nice views of the Triglav massif and surrounding peaks, and we reach Dom Planika pod Triglavom.
At the hut, head onto the path towards Triglav via Triglavska škrbina, also called Gorjanska pot. The path ahead first almost horizontally crosses the high mountain cirque Triglavski kot, where snow persists for most of the year. On the other side of the cirque, the path climbs through scree to the start of the climbing section. The path steeply ascends with the help of pegs and fixed cables. The well-protected path is exposed to falling rocks, so a helmet is mandatory! The last meters below Triglavska or Bovška škrbina are less steep but no less dangerous. Ascending on loose sand requires great caution to avoid slipping. At the škrbina, where the path from Dolič and Plemenic joins, continue right upward along the steep but well-protected path. After a few minutes, the steepness eases, and only a few minutes of ascent along the summit slope of Triglav await us to the top.
