Tinčkova koča - Bielschitza/Svačica (via Smokuška planina)

Access to starting point:
From the Ljubljana - Jesenice highway, take the Lesce exit and follow the road ahead in the direction of Žirovnica and Jesenice. After a few km of driving, we will get to an intersection, where the road to Žirovnica and Moste branches off to the right (from the direction of Jesenice to the left). Only a few meters ahead, at the next intersection, we turn left to Moste (right to Žirovnica). Further, we drive past a monument to fallen fighters, where the road starts ascending the hill below the railway track. At the top of the hill, we turn right (at the sign Vila Karin), we continue towards Završniško jezero and Valvasorjev dom. The road then flattens and brings us to an intersection, where the road towards Valvasorjev dom branches off to the left, and we continue straight on the initially still asphalted road. The road soon becomes macadam, and we follow it to the parking lot near Tinčkova koča. The road in the upper part is often in quite bad condition.

Path description:
From the parking lot, we head onto a wide rocky cart track in the direction of Zelenica and Koča pri izviru Završnice. The cart track, which ascends quite steeply, soon brings us to a junction, where the path to Roblekov dom branches off to the right.
We continue on the cart track, which continues ascending through the forest and brings us after one hour of walking to Smokuška planina, where there are some cottages. We continue straight and the path in a gentle ascent brings us to the other side of the pasture, where Koča pri izviru Završnice stands.
Here we continue left in the direction of Vrtača and Stol on the path, which quickly passes from Smokuška planina into a smaller initially indistinct valley between Srednji vrh on the left and Vrtača on the right. The moderately steep path then brings us after a good half hour of walking from Smokuška planina to the saddle Šija, where the next junction is.
We continue straight (left Srednji vrh, right Vrtača and Stol upper path) on the path, which first slightly descends, then gradually starts to ascend. Here an unmarked path over Zagon joins almost unnoticeably from the left, we continue straight on the path surrounded by lush shrubbery. The relatively gentle path soon brings us into a high-mountain cirque, where the (upper) path from Dom na Zelenici joins from the right. We continue left in the direction of Stol on the path, which steeply ascends for a short time, then brings us into the plateau-like terrain between Svačica and Srednja peč.
Here we continue sharply right in the direction of Celovška koča (straight Stol). The path ahead soon steeply ascends over a short rocky step, then flattens and quickly brings us to the saddle Belščica, where we reach the border ridge.
Again we go right and continue the ascent on the trail ascending a grassy slope surrounded by dwarf pines. We follow this increasingly panoramic path to the summit, where a cross stands.
