Access to starting point:
A) First, we drive to Škofja Loka, and then we continue driving towards Železniki and forward towards Zali Log. About 100 meters before Zali Log, we will get to a crossroad, where the road towards Davča branches off to the left. Here we turn left, we cross the bridge over the river Selška Sora and we park on an appropriate place by the transformer.
B) To the starting point, we can also come from the direction of Tolmin. In this case, at first we drive in Podbrdo, and then we continue driving towards Železniki. In the first crossroad after Zali Log we turn right and then we park on an appropriate place by the transformer.
Path description:
On nearby hayrack by the transformer we notice signs for Blegoš, which point us on the road by which we've parked. The road is at first ascending gently by the river Davča and then leads us through the hamlet Zali Log. In the second part of the hamlet we come on a little bigger crossroad, where a road towards Davča, ski slope Cerkno and Cerkno branches off to the right, and we continue straight over a bridge to NOB monument. At the monument below the power line marked cart track branches off slightly to the right (turn off is unmarked), which leads on Blegoš (straight on the road Blegoš over Črni Kal).
Cart track at first ascends parallel with the road, and then turns to the right, where it is then ascending diagonally through the forest. Higher, the cart track which has few crossings (we follow rare blazes) flattens and brings us on a steep and for a short time also panoramic slopes (a look on Ratitovec). After few minutes of easy walking cart track again steeply ascends and on the top of the ascent brings us to an asphalt road. When we step on the road, we continue straight, and after few minutes of additional walking, we get to some houses in the village Potok. In the middle of the village is a smaller crossroad, where we continue on the right road in the direction of Blegoš and Črni Kal. Only a little higher, we get to the next crossing, where it says Blegoš left and straight. This time we continue straight in the direction of the footpath on Blegoš (left Blegoš access to Črni Kal with a car), but for some time we continue an ascent on an asphalt road. After few minutes of additional walking, the road turns sharply to the right, at the beginning of the mentioned turn continues branch of asphalt road also straight. Here we continue straight and we continue the ascent by trickling stream and we also soon reach its source.
By source (in the time of high water level is a source higher) we leave the asphalt road and we continue the ascent on a rough macadam road which is further ascending on the bottom of a torrent ditch. Higher, we cross a little wider road, and we walk there only few minutes, because then signs for Blegoš point us to the left on a cart track which is further ascending by side valley. Also cart track we soon leave because blazes lead left into a dense forest through which we are then ascending on a poorly beaten footpath. A poorly visible footpath is moderately to occasionally steeply ascending through a dense forest, but if we all the time stick to some sort of a small valley we can't stray from the right path, because it is all the time ascending next to it. Higher, we cross the forest road, and only a little higher we join a better beaten path which leads from Črni Kal towards the mountain hut Koča na Blegošu. Here we continue right and in few minutes we get to the mentioned mountain hut.
From the mountain hut on Blegoš we continue on at first gently sloping path, which ascends on a panoramic grassy slope. The path soon starts ascending steeper and it brings us to the edge of the forest, where it is ascending on narrow unvegetated lane. The steepness soon decreases and the path brings us on a panoramic ridge of Blegoš, on which we ascend in few minutes to peak.
On the way: Potok (830m), Koča na Blegošu mountain hut (1391m)
