Trdnjava Kluže - Kota 1313

Access to starting point:
From Bovec we drive towards the border crossing Predel. After a few kilometres along the road we notice Trdnjava Kluže and the parking lot next to it, where we park.

Route description:
From the parking lot we head onto the wide marked path located on the opposite side of the road from Trdnjava Kluže (direction Rombon and Kota 1313). The path, which ascends barely noticeably, takes us after a few minutes of walking to an old military tunnel. Since the tunnel is quite long, a headlamp or other light will be helpful.
After the tunnel the path leads us to a junction, where we continue left towards Na Robu and Kota 1313 (slightly right Možnica). The path then steeply ascends briefly, then continues in a gentle traversing ascent with some views towards the lower Trdnjava Kluže. After about 25 minutes of walking the path takes us to the mighty remains of Hermanova utrdba.
From the fortification we continue right towards Rombon on the path that steeply ascends through the forest upwards. At junctions we follow the marked path or the signs for Na Robu and 1313, higher up only the signs for 1313. After over two hours of walking the path brings us to a beautiful viewpoint, where a view opens towards the nearby Jerebica and other mountains above the Koritnica valley.
The path then enters dense forest again and leads us to a junction, where we continue left on the less visible path following the signs for 1313 (straight to Rombon). The path levels out, turns right and takes us out of the forest to Kota 1313, from where a wonderful view opens over the Bovška kotlina.
