Suhadolnik - Grintovec (via Kokrsko and Mlinarsko sedlo)

Access to starting point:
From the Ljubljana - Jesenice highway, take the exit Kranj - East and follow the road ahead in the direction of Jezersko, but only to the village of Kokra. In the mentioned village, we will notice, just a few meters before the road crosses the bridge over the river Kokra, a road which leads towards Suhadolnik. The turn-off of the road is located when we are on the right side of the river (left bank), the road sign is approximately 7 km. We then follow this road to the parking lot, which is located approximately 300 meters before the farm Suhadolnik.

Path description:
At the beginning of the parking lot, we notice hiking signposts, which direct us to a road, along which in less than 5 minutes of walking we arrive at a smaller intersection at the farm Suhadolnik. Here we continue on the right road, which we follow for approximately another 5 minutes, or to the spot where the blazes lead us to an ascending cart track. Further, we ascend for a short time on the cart track, then the blazes direct us right onto a footpath that moderately ascends through the forest. Higher up, we return to the cart track, which only a few meters further brings us to a forest road, which we then follow to its end (to here we need approximately half an hour).
At the end of the road, the marked path splits into two parts. We continue on the left path (right somewhat easier "Old path"), which further ascends on a gentle cart track. Somewhat further, the blazes direct us slightly right onto torrent deposits of sand, and the path on the other side continues through the forest, where it begins to ascend ever steeper. Higher, we come to a smaller cavity, and the path behind it becomes technically demanding. With the help of a steel cable, we ascend one level higher, and the path then continues on a steep slope, where some pegs occasionally assist us. Higher, the path turns right, traverses steep and especially slippery when wet slopes, and brings us to an excellently secured passage. With the help of wooden steps or a ladder and the assistance of a steel cable, we ascend the steep slope, which would be very dangerous without the mentioned safety equipment. Higher, a few more pegs assist us, the path then flattens and crosses a short exposed slope, where an emergency fence assists us. Just a little further, we come to the next ladder, next to which there is no steel cable, but the passage is not particularly demanding. A short descent into a smaller gully follows, which we then also cross. On the other side of the gully, we ascend steeply (assisted by some U-bolts), after which the path gradually flattens and brings us in a few dozen steps of further walking to the spot where the somewhat easier "Old path" joins.
A short traverse ascent follows, and the path brings us to a larger plain where the "old hut" once stood. Through high grass, we walk to the other side of the plain, where we arrive at a marked junction.
We continue straight (left Kočna over Grdi graben) on a moderately steep path, which further ascends through a belt of shrubs. Higher, the path temporarily flattens completely, then brings us among the dwarf pines, where it begins to ascend more steeply. We follow this somewhat steeper path, from which increasingly beautiful views open up, all the way to Cojz's hut at Kokrsko saddle.
From the saddle, we continue left in the direction of Grintovec, Kočna, and Skuta. The path steeply ascends immediately above the saddle and brings us a little higher to a junction, where the path to the bivouac under Grintovec and Skuta branches off to the right (straight to Grintovec over Streha and Kočna). We head onto this initially somewhat less visible track, which in a moderate ascent brings us to the scenic passage over Mala vratca. Behind the narrow passage of Mala vratca, the path begins to descend on a steep and occasionally somewhat exposed slope. At the end of the descent, which takes us approximately 100 elevation meters, some pegs assist us. Crossing the gully follows, then ascent through high-mountain terrain to the bivouac under Grintovec.
From the bivouac, we continue on the marked path, which quickly brings us to a junction. We continue straight in the direction of Skuta and Grintovec (right Kamniško sedlo, Rinke, and Turska gora) on a relatively gentle path, which soon brings us to the next junction. Again, we continue on the left path (right Skuta), which leads us further over karst terrain full of limestone pavements and sinkholes. Further, we carefully follow the blazes, which after a short ascent bring us to Mlinarsko sedlo, where the path from Jezersko joins. We continue left in the direction of Grintovec (right Dolgi hrbet and Skuta) on a path that becomes technically demanding. The path further leads us on and beside a locally exposed ridge, then passes to the shady side of the ridge, where it becomes somewhat more difficult, but numerous safety installations assist us. The path, which in the upper part is exposed to falling rocks, brings us to the summit after approximately 1 hour of walking from Mlinarsko sedlo.
I recommend descent over Streha of Grintovec.
