Access to starting point:
We leave the Gorenjska motorway at the Hrušica exit and continue following the road in the direction of Kranjska Gora. Just a little before the village of Dovje, a road branches off to the left from the main road, leading to Mojstrana (Vrata, Kot and Krma). We continue along the road in the direction of the village Radovna and the Krma and Kot valleys. The relatively steep road then takes us past the TNP sign, after which the road soon levels out and brings us to an intersection, where a gravel road branches off to the right into the Kot valley. We continue straight on the road that begins to descend. In the middle of the descent, a road branches off to the right into the Krma valley (straight ahead to Radovna). A little further on, we reach the next intersection, where we continue right in the direction of Krma. The gravel road then brings us to the Kovinarska koča, and we continue to follow it further. The occasionally somewhat poorer road then brings us to the parking lot before the barrier.
Route description:
From the last parking lot in the Krma valley, named Pri lesi, we continue along the poorer road that continues through the valley and soon brings us to a clearing, where we bypass the nearby object on the left side. We continue along the gravel path, which approaches the torrent and crosses it a little further on. On the other side of the torrent, the path enters the forest and initially ascends gently, then for some time quite steeply. Higher up, we transition from the forest into a belt of dwarf pines and shrubs, and beautiful views open up from the path to the nearby cliffs of the peaks, which on the other side descend more gently towards Pokljuka.
Higher up, somewhere at an altitude of a little more than 1400 m, the path temporarily levels out and brings us to the beautiful grassy plain Vrtača.
After the grassy part, the path begins to ascend again along a path that is often quite slippery in this section, which levels out on the Malo polje plain.
Here the path turns right and branches.
To the left, the path branches towards Bohinjska vratca and Vodnikov dom na Velem polju, while we continue straight and at the foot of Vernar we continue easily to the spring with the trough.
After the trough, the path branches, but we continue straight on the marked path (left is an unmarked shortcut to the Zgornja Krma pasture). This is followed by some moderate ascent, higher up also somewhat steeper through sparse, partly larch forest. Higher up, the path turns left and levels out, and the previously mentioned shortcut joins us from the left.
After the merging of both paths, we quickly arrive at the shepherd's hut on the Zgornja Krma pasture, called Prgarca.
From here, the path continues in a moderate ascent towards the west and brings us to the last spring along the path, above the spring the path branches again.
To the left continues the path across Kurica, which leads to Konjsko sedlo and further towards Dom Planika pod Triglavom, while we go right on the path that leads further in the direction of Kredarica and Staničev dom.
Just a few steps further, from the usual path towards Kredarica, the "old path" towards Kredarica branches off to the left.
Here along the path are the only markings for Kredarica in this direction, but we continue straight on the gentle marked path, along which there are no markings for Kredarica (September 2025), which a few minutes further brings us to a marked junction, where the paths towards Kredarica and Staničev dom separate.
The path ahead leads us through the partly grassy terrain named Murava, later we ascend transversely through increasingly sparse, mostly larch forest. Higher up, the path gradually levels out and brings us to the lower part of Kravja dolina, where first an unmarked path joins us from the right, leading past the hunting lodge Zgornja Krma, and a little higher an also unmarked path branches off to the right, which leads towards the central part of Kravja dolina and further towards Veliki Pršivec, the remains of the plane from World War II and Rjavina via Teme.
We continue right along the unmarked trail (straight ahead Dom Valentina Staniča), which ascends along a smaller indistinct little valley. The path through the valley leads us through dwarf pines and ascends only slightly, but soon becomes harder to follow and completely disappears towards the end of the valley.
Here we turn left towards Rjavina and after a short ascent we will come to a grassy slope where we notice the remains of a bomber from the Second World War. We continue to the right along the lower scree to the entry into a somewhat more demanding traverse towards Teme. The demanding part is very short, but quite a lot of caution is needed because there is a lot of gravel on the path. Then follows another short traverse along a fairly steep grassy slope and a descent to Teme.

Discussion about the trip Dolina Krma - Teme (pri Rjavini)

Today's day was perfect for the ascent to Teme, as the orientation is still quite demanding. To avoid missing anything, we detoured to Veliki Pršivec, from which the approach to Teme was clearly visible. It went without problems, but caution is necessary from the entry into the ridge and also on the steep grasses that were still a bit damp. Especially on the section visible in photo 46. From the bomber wreckage, we returned via a slightly higher variant, not entirely under V. Pršivec, and arrived in the valley very at the beginning, approximately in the part shown in photo 38, where we only noticed the cairn on the way back. Quite a nice tour, and if there hadn't been marmots, it would have been completely alone from planina Zg. Krma onwards.
