Aljažev dom v Vratih - Triglavski dom na Kredarici (Tominšek route)

Access to the starting point:
Leave the Gorenjska motorway at the Hrušica exit and follow the road towards Kranjska Gora. Just before the village of Dovje, the road branches off to the left and leads to Mojstrana (Vrata, Kot and Krma). Follow the road in the direction of the Vrata valley and follow it to the large parking lot near the Aljaž's home.

Path description:
From the parking lot, continue along the macadam road, which after a 3-minute walk leads to the crossroads at Aljaževem dom. Continue straight ahead in the direction of Triglav, Luknja and Pogačnik's home (right Škrlatica) along the wide path that goes behind the chapel (on the right) and Aljaž's home (on the left) into the lane of a forest. The wide tourist-walking path leads us past the winter bivouac out of the forest, where we see the famous wedge (a monument dedicated to the fallen partisan mountaineers) in front of us. Here, the mountain sign for the Tominšek trail directs us to the left and leads us over lane of rubble into the forest. The well-worn path begins to climb upwards through the forest. As the path through the forest is quite steep in places, some steps have been placed on the path to make walking easier. After an hour and a half of walking, the forest becomes thinner and the path leads to the start of the climbing part of the trail. During the ascent of the climbing part, we are helped by the fixed safety gear, which are in good condition (restored in 2006). The path continues to become more and more vertiginous and rises steeply along the northern walls of Begunjski vrh. As the climbing part of the route is exposed to falling rocks, a helmet is a must! After a good three hours of walking, the steepness eases and the route joins the normal route over the Prag. Just a few steps further along the path, you will see a nice little spring where you can rest. The way forward soon leads us to the next crossroads, where we continue to the right in the direction of Kredarica (left Staničev dom). The way forward runs along the Triglavski Podi, where we may have some problems with orientation (especially in the fog). However, the steepness of the path gradually increases again, and in places we are helped by the steel cable. The steepness then eases again, and the path leads us to Triglavski dom na Kredarici to which we have to climb slightly.
