Access to starting point:
We drive to Tolmin, then continue driving in the direction of Žabče and Zadlaz (turn-off from the main road is located on the left bank of Tolminka). When we get to Žabče, at the smaller crossroads we continue slightly right in the direction of the settlement Zadlaz. In the settlement Zadlaz-Žabče the road temporarily descends, where it crosses Zadlaščica over a bridge, and then again starts ascending steeply on a narrow but all the time asphalted road. After approximately 12 km from the main road we get to the marked parking lot in Tolminske Ravne, where we park.
Path description:
From the parking lot, we go on the path in the direction of the mountain hut Koča na planini Razor and mountain pasture Planina na Kalu. At first, we walk on a cart track which continues from the nearby house and leads us through a panoramic meadow. On the other side of the meadow, we cross a grazing fence and the path brings us to a marked junction, where we continue on the lower right cart track (slightly left mountain pasture Planina na Kalu).
Further, we walk on a cart track which slightly descends towards the right, then flattens and for a few minutes continues without major changes in elevation. After the concrete trough the path once again splits, and we choose the left steep path (path which continues straight also leads to the mountain pasture Razor, but the path is longer, but technically undemanding).
The path ahead again starts ascending, ascending mostly towards the right, only here and there making some hairpin turns. Higher, we pass to steeper slopes, a little further to an exposed, but except for the first few steps, well-secured ledge. When the traverse ends the path temporarily returns to the forest, through which it ascends more steeply, then we step out of the forest and the path flattens. From here follows a few more minutes of walking with nice views on mountains rising above the basin of Zadlaščica and the path past the cheese cottage brings us to the mountain hut Koča na planini Razor.
From the mountain hut, we continue in the direction of Globoko, Vogel, Vrh nad Škrbino... on the path which crosses a strip of forest, then on a gentle grassy slope splits.
From the junction, we continue right (straight Vrh nad Škrbino and Dom na Komni) and start moderately ascending. The path quickly returns to the forest and brings us to the next junction.
From the junction, we continue left in the direction of Globoko (slightly right Vogel) on the path which quickly brings us out of the forest. When we step out of the forest we ascend on a mule track, which at first occasionally still leads through strips of scrub or dwarf pines, then gradually transitions to steeper, mostly grassy slopes. The path ahead moderately ascends in a few zigzags, then follows a somewhat longer traverse ascent to the right. Here the slope gradually becomes steeper, the path, which continues on the mule track, brings us higher to an old concrete bunker, a little further also to a smaller emergency bivouac, in which there are some benches. From the bivouac follows a few minutes of panoramic ascent, then we reach the main ridge of Spodnje Bohinjske gore on the saddle Globoko.
Here we leave the marked path and continue left on an unmarked footpath, on which in a minute or two we ascend to Vrh Planje.
