Suhadolnik - Grintovec (via Streha)

Access to starting point:
From the Ljubljana - Jesenice highway, we take the Kranj - East exit and follow the road ahead towards Jezersko, but only to the village of Kokra. In the mentioned village, a few meters before the road crosses the bridge over the Kokra River, we will notice a road that leads towards Suhadolnik. The road turn-off 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 crossroad by the farm Suhadolnik. Here we continue on the right road, which we follow for approximately 5 minutes, or to the spot where the blazes lead us onto an ascending cart track. Further, for a short time we ascend the cart track, then the blazes direct us right onto a footpath, which moderately ascends through the forest. Higher, 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 occasionally some peg helps us. Higher, the path turns right, ascends transversely over steep and especially in wet slippery-dangerous slopes, and then brings us to an excellently secured passage. With the help of wooden steps or ladder and help of a steel cable, we ascend the steep slope, which without the mentioned safety devices would be very dangerous. Higher, a few more pegs help us, the path then flattens and crosses a short exposed slope, where an emergency fence helps us. Only a little further we come to the next ladder, next to which there is no steel cable, but the passage is not particularly demanding. Follows a short descent into a smaller gully, which we then cross. On the other side of the gully, we ascend steeply (some pegs help us), then the path gradually flattens and in a few dozen steps of further walking brings us to the spot where the somewhat easier "Old path" joins.
Follows a short transverse ascent 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 bushes. Higher, the path temporarily completely flattens, then brings us among dwarf pines, where it begins to ascend more steeply. This somewhat steeper path, from which increasingly beautiful views open, we follow all the way to the Cojzova koča on Kokrsko sedlo.
From the saddle, we continue left in the direction of Grintovec, Kočna, and Skuta. The path immediately above the saddle steeply ascends and somewhat higher brings us to a junction, where to the right branches the path to the bivouac under Grintovec and Skuta. We continue straight on the "main" path, which flattens and turns somewhat left, where it crosses the slopes of the indistinct valley named Jame. The path then ascends in a traverse to the summit slope of Grintovec - Streha (this part is in winter very dangerous for slipping), where we come to the next junction. We continue right (left Kočna) on the path, which ascends on the summit slope of Grintovec relatively steeply upward. Initially still grassy slope is quickly replaced by scree, which then accompanies us on the path. The increasingly scenic path, from which increasingly beautiful views open, then quickly brings us to the summit of Grintovec.

In winter, the path is exposed to avalanches, and there is also a great risk of slipping.
Suhadolnik - Kokrsko sedlo 2:30, Kokrsko sedlo - Grintovec 2:15.
