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 higher brings us to a crossroad, where we continue straight (right Jermanca, starting point for saddle Kamniško sedlo). The road then past the boulder Žagana peč brings us to the parking lot at the bottom cargo cableway station to a saddle 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 for a little less than an hour.
Path description:
From the parking lot at the cargo cableway we go on a footpath in the direction of Kokrsko sedlo and Grintovec. The path which runs through the forest is at first only gently ascending, but this part of the path is short. Already after few minutes of walking, the path starts ascending steeply and a little higher we have fixed safety gear for help, which come in handy when the ground is wet and slippery (when dry undemanding). Well visible and still steep path higher starts turning a little towards the right. For a short time the ascent becomes less steep and the path brings us out of the forest on avalanche slopes below Kokrsko sedlo. Here the path becomes steep again and with increasingly beautiful views (those are most beautiful on peaks above the valley of Kamniška Bistrica) it is ascending by the foot of the walls of Kalška gora and Mali vrh. Easy to follow, but because of a lot of stones (slightly overgrown scree) strenuous path, after a good 2 hours of walking, it brings us to a saddle Kokrsko sedlo, where there stands a mountain hut Cojzova koča.
From the mountain hut, we continue left towards the south in the direction of Kalški greben. At first, we cross slopes below Kalška gora and then we get to less steep walls, which with the help of some fixed safety gear we climb (dangerous for slipping). When we step from walls the path flattens and in front of us, we notice a wide grassy slopes of Kalška gora. We continue on the right path in the direction of Kalški greben, which on in parts slightly exposed ridge and with the help of some fixed safety gear brings us to the most difficult part of the path. Because path brings us to almost vertical wall, which we have to climb downwards with the help of fixed safety gear. Helmet is mandatory, self-belay set is also recommended! The path then again starts ascending towards Kalški greben, to which we have for approximately half an hour of walking on a panoramic ridge.
