V Koncu - Grintovec (via Streha)

Access to starting point:
We drive to Kamnik and follow the road ahead towards the valley of Kamniška Bistrica. From the hut in Kamniška Bistrica, we continue driving on the forest road, which brings us higher up to a crossroad, where we continue straight (right Jermanca, starting point for Kamniško sedlo). The road then past Žagana peč brings us to the parking lot at the lower station of the cargo cableway to Kokrsko sedlo.
Driving from the mountain hut in Kamniška Bistrica to the parking lot V Koncu is now forbidden (traffic sign); this extends the path by less than an hour.

Path description:
From the parking lot at the cargo cableway, we head onto the initially gentle footpath towards Kokrsko sedlo. The path first crosses a belt of bushes, then enters a dense forest, where it begins to ascend more steeply. Higher up, the forest becomes somewhat sparser, opening up some views of the surrounding peaks. The path, which continues steeply ascending, brings us higher to two successive steel cables (entirely undemanding in the dry), after which we reach a pleasant rest area with a bench.
The path ahead returns to the dense forest, then begins turning to the right, where the steepness eases for a short while. A little further on, the path exits the forest, crosses an indistinct gully, and brings us to the avalanche-prone slopes below Kokrsko sedlo. Here the path turns slightly left and begins steeply ascending a mostly rocky slope. This quite strenuous path (due to the scree), running below the walls of Kalška gora to the left and the lesser-known Mali vrh to the right, finally brings us to Cojzova koča on Kokrsko sedlo amid ever finer views.
From the saddle, we continue right towards Grintovec and Kočna (left Kalški greben, straight down Kokra) along a path that steeply ascends briefly. The steepness soon eases, and after a few minutes of further walking, the path brings us to a marked junction, where we go straight towards Grintovec (slightly right Skuta). This is followed by a few minutes of traversing the slopes along a path turning increasingly to the left. After a slight descent, the path leads to more level terrain (lower part of Jam), then begins traversing up towards Streha of Grintovec. At the top of the traverse, we reach a marked junction, where we continue slightly right towards Grintovec (straight Kočna).
The path ahead ascends grassy slopes for a while longer, then gradually enters rockier terrain. A fairly steep path brings us higher to the south ridge of Grintovec, along and beside which we then ascend. We follow this increasingly scenic path, which is technically undemanding, all the way to the summit of Grintovec, reaching it after some 10 minutes of further walking.
In winter, the path is avalanche-prone, and there is also a high risk of slipping.
V Koncu - Kokrsko sedlo 2:15, Kokrsko sedlo - Grintovec 2:15.
