Zgornja Dobrava - Castle Lipniški grad (Pusti grad above Lipnica) (via Ojstra peč)

Access to starting point:
A) We drive to Podbrezje (to here from Gorenjska highway exit Naklo or Tržič), and then we follow the signs for Kropa. In the settlement Lipnica we don't drive in Kropa, but we continue driving right towards Kamna Gorica. A little further, we leave the main road and we continue driving right towards Zgornja Dobrava. After approximately 500 meters of ascent we get to Zgornja Dobrava, and we drive for few 100 meters ahead, to a crossroad on a smaller saddle, where a road towards Srednja Dobrava branches off to the right. At the mentioned crossroad is the beginning of described footpath, but there aren't any parking spots. We can park lower by the road, or higher on part of the described path.
B) We leave Gorenjska highway at exit Radovljica, and then we drive to Mošnje and forward towards the settlement Globoko, where we also cross river Sava. When we get to the settlement Mišače we continue straight towards Zgornja Dobrava, in Zgornja Dobrava we get to a crossroad, where a road branches off to the left towards Srednja Dobrava. At the mentioned crossroad is the beginning of described footpath, but there aren't any parking spots. We can park lower by the road, or higher on part of the described path.

Path description:
From the crossroad, we go on the road which continues towards the northwest (opposite road as the one which leads towards Srednja Dobrava), and at first, it leads past the hayrack and with nice views on Jamnik. When the asphalt ends we notice signs for Ojstra peč, which points us on the forest road, from which we soon go, at the unmarked crossroad right on a wide, at first still driving cart track. On the cart track soon from the right also the path from Mišače joins, and we go straight on a gradually narrower cart track which continues with some shorter ascents and descents. After a little less than 20 minutes of walking, we get to the next marked crossing, where we continue right towards Ojstra peč (left Zjavka 10 minutes), to which we get to after a minute of additional walking.
From Ojstra peč we continue slightly left, where on a short footpath we quickly join the other path, which we follow to the right. The path ahead leads us on an indistinct ridge, where we continue with some shorter ascents and descents. At some crossings we follow right footpaths, and then the path for few minutes steeper descends and it brings us to a crossing at the smaller cross, where from the left joins the path from Kamna Gorica, and from the right from Radovljica.
From the crossing, we continue straight in the direction of natural learning trail Pusti grad. Further gently sloping path leads steep above Galerije, and a little ahead also the path through Galerije joins. After the junction of the mentioned path we step out of the forest and the path through a meadow brings us to the settlement Zgornja Lipnica, where at the crossings we follow the signs for Pusti grad. Next follows a walk on a gently sloping macadam road which after few minutes joins another path from Fux footbridge. We still continue on the road which then brings us to the next houses, where at the crossings we again follow the signs for Pusti grad. Behind the last house a beautiful view opens up towards the Alps, after we again step in the forest, we get to a crossing, where a short path branches off to the left, which leads on Pusti grad. From the crossing, we reach the castle Pusti grad after approximately a minute of additional walking.
