Suhadolnik - Jezerska Kočna (via Kokrsko sedlo and Dolci)

Access to starting point:
From the highway Ljubljana - Jesenice, take the exit Kranj - East and follow the road ahead in the direction of Jezersko, but only to the village Kokra. In the mentioned village, we will notice, 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 m before the farm Suhadolnik.

Path description:
At the beginning of the parking lot, we notice hiking signposts, which direct us onto a road, along which in less than 5 minutes of walking we arrive at a smaller crossroads by the farm Suhadolnik. Here we continue on the right road, which we follow for approximately another 5 minutes, or until the spot where the blazes lead us onto an ascending cart track. Further, we ascend briefly along 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 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 along a gentle cart track. A little 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 along a steep slope, where some pegs occasionally assist us. Higher, the path turns right, ascends transversely over steep and especially slippery when wet slopes, and brings us to an excellently secured passage. With the help of wooden steps or ladder and the assistance of a steel cable, we ascend the steep slope, which without the mentioned safety gear would be very dangerous. Higher, a few more pegs assist us, the path then flattens and crosses a short exposed slope, where an emergency fence assists us. Only a little further, we come to the next ladder, by which there is no steel cable, but the passage is not particularly demanding. A short descent into a smaller gully follows, which we then cross. On the other side of the gully, we ascend steeply (assisted by some staples), then 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 transverse 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 via Grdi graben) along a moderately steep path that further ascends through a belt of bushes. 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 Cojzova koča on Kokrsko sedlo.
From the saddle, we continue left in the direction of Grintovec, Kočna, and Skuta. The path steeply ascends immediately above the saddle and a little higher brings us to a junction, where the path to the bivouac under Grintovec and Skuta branches off right. We continue straight on the "main" path, which flattens and turns slightly left, crossing 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 very dangerous for slipping in winter), where we come to the next junction. We continue left toward Kočna, right leads the path to the summit of Grintovec. The path then crosses steep grassy slopes to the west and begins to descend. Later, the path turns right and continues slightly descending, crossing slightly exposed slopes all the way to the gentle grassy slopes (Srednji Dolci). Here we join the path that leads via Grdi graben, a few meters later we are again at a junction. We turn right, left leads the path toward the bivouac under Kočna and Kokrska Kočna. We ascend over a grassy slope that brings us to scree, along which we ascend for quite some time. At the end, the path on the scree turns slightly left and brings us into the rocks. A short ascent slightly right to Dolška škrbina (2317 m – the lowest point between Kočna and Grintovec) follows. There is also a junction at the notch, where we turn left toward Kočna (right Grintovec). The path then leads along the northern side of the ridge and soon brings us again to a junction. This time we turn left (straight down Češka koča, right Grintovec) and continue the ascent on the path that quickly brings us to one of the most interesting passages in the Slovenian mountains. The path brings us to a pot-bellied passage through which we must crawl. The ceiling above us is so low that there is no other way (watch your head). The path ahead transitions to a short scree slope, after which we step onto a steeper path, where some pegs and steel cables assist us. We then follow this increasingly panoramic path to the slightly spacious summit.
