Dom pod Storžičem - Krničarjeva koča na planini Javornik

Access to the starting point:
From the Ljubljana - Jesenice motorway, take the Ljubelj exit (Tržič) and then continue towards Ljubelj. Just before the petrol station in Bistrica pri Tržiču, leave the main road and turn right towards Tržiča. Continue through Tržič in the direction of Dolžanove gorge, then turn right at the end of the town in the direction of Lom pod Storžičem and Grahovš. At the end of the village Grahovše the asphalt ends and we continue on the dirt road in the direction of Doma pod Storžičem. Follow the steeper dirt road in the upper part of the road to the parking lot near the Doma pod Storžičem.

Path description:
From the starting point near Dom pod Storžičem, continue along the road for a short distance (direction Storžič), and then follow the parallel mountain path that climbs gently along the edge of the meadow. At the upper part of the meadow you will reach a small wooden hut, where the path splits into two parts. We take the slightly right-hand path (left Storžič through Žrelo and over Škarjev rob), which continues along and along the relatively steep cart track. The path dips slightly higher up and turns right. It then climbs cross-climbing to the right for some time before reaching the edge of a steep gully, over which it climbs cross-climbing to the nearby wide cart track, which is reached just at its end. Leave the cart track immediately and continue slightly left into the forest. Continue through the forest for some time, following the path which descends gently for some time, and then reach a small crossroads, from where you continue in the route Mala Poljana.
From the crossroads onwards, the path starts to climb again, crossing the slopes to the right all the time. At a higher altitude you reach cart track, which is a quick walk to the nearby Mala Poljane.
From Mala Poljana, where the path from Zalog joins, continue left in the route Velika Poljana. The path continues along cart track and quickly enters the forest, through which it then climbs crosswise. After a few minutes' walk, you will reach a viewing slope which offers a beautiful view of the surrounding mountains. Just a little further on, cart track turns right and after a short climb leads to the upper edge of Velika Poljana, from where you descend to the hut in a few minutes.
From the hut on Velika poljana, turn left in the direction of Kališča, where you cross the grassy slopes of mountain pasture without any major changes in altitude, and the path soon leads you into the forest, where it crosses the occasionally steeper slopes to the right with a few short ascents and descents. The path, which is dangerous for slipping on some of the steeper parts, especially in the wet, leads us after about half an hour's walk from Velika Poljane to Krničar's hut at mountain pasture Javornik.
