Access to starting point:
We drive into the valley of Kamniška Bistrica towards the mountain hut Dom v Kamniški Bistrici. From the hut, we continue forward on the road, which soon becomes a macadam. We follow the road ahead towards signs for the saddle Kokrsko sedlo. We park at the big boulder Žagana peč, on which the altitude is also written. A few meters higher, on the left side of the road, there is a smaller parking spot where we park.
Driving from the mountain hut in Kamniška Bistrica to Žagana peč is now forbidden (traffic sign); this extends the path for approximately 45 minutes.
Path description:
We start at Žagana peč, or half an hour lower at Kamniška Bistrica. Some meters above Žagana peč, where from Kamniška Bistrica the blazes towards the saddle Kokrsko sedlo lead us, on the left side of the road from the parking space a well-beaten hunting footpath branches off. It rises through steep forest and crosses some gullies. We stick to the left direction and in a good hour we come to a small saddle, where there stands a hunting cottage with a bench (nv 1330 m). The path turns right above the cottage along the left slope of the hill and then along a natural gully. The footpath is all the time quite steep and pleasantly soft. At the end of the gully a beaten path branches off to the right to Zob and further to Kalška gora and not to Čmaževski turn, which is lower. We follow the path straight ahead, which starts to get lost in the dwarf pines and becomes flatter. The path almost completely avoids the dwarf pines and completely gets lost on the high mountain meadows of Kalce. If we follow the bottom of the indistinct valley (cairns help us), we come to the scree and across it to the marked path, which we follow to the right towards Kokrsko sedlo. Across the steep spot a steel cable helps us. In 10 minutes we come to the path junction, where we turn right towards Kalška gora. To the summit we have another good 5 minutes along a panoramic grassy path. Car-hunting cottage 1h10', hunting cottage-marked path 1h50', marked path-summit 15'.

At the descent it is harder to find the footpath if we did not ascend along this path.
