Fusine Laghi - Madonna della Neve (Monte Cavallar)

Access to the starting point:
First we drive to Kranjska Gora, then continue to Rateče and on to Itali. After crossing the national border, drive along the main road for only 500 m, and then you will see the mountain signs for "Monte Forno and Bivio M. Cavallar" along the roadside. Here, turn right onto a minor dirt road, and park at a suitable roadside parking spot about 50 m further on.

Path description:
From the starting point, continue along the deteriorating road, which quickly leads to moderately steep hayfields. Cross the hay meadows on the marked cart track and follow the mostly cross-climb to the right. At first there are fine views of Julian Alps, but then the path passes into the forest and turns left. Continuing north-westwards, the path follows an old dirt track, which joins the dirt road higher up. Once on the road, take a sharp right and it climbs a small pass, after which the road branches off to the left towards the summit of Cavalar (aka Cavalarka) / Monte Cavallar, and we continue straight ahead on the road, which begins to descend gently. We descend for some time, and there are numerous warnings along the road not to leave the road, otherwise you are trespassing on private property. After a short descent, you reach a point where the road to Maria Schnee below Gozman / Madonna della Neve (signposted Maria im Schnee) forks off to the left, and the road continues straight ahead towards Tromea.
Continue towards Maria Schnee below Gozman and walk through the woods for a short distance before arriving at a sort of mountain pasture, from where you get a nice view of Dobrač. Here the road descends a little and leads to the Chapel of Our Lady of the Snows.
