Molnarjev breg - Planjava pri Kamniškem vrhu (by road)

Access to the starting point:
a) From the motorway Ljubljana - Jesenice, take the exit Vodice, then continue to the first semaphore crossing in Vodice, where you turn left towards Cerkelj na Gorenjskem and Brnik. When you reach the main roundabout at Spodnji Brnik, continue driving in the direction of Cerkeliai and the ski resort Krvavec. At the end of Cerklje na Gorenjskem, leave the main road, which continues towards Velesovo and Visoke, and turn slightly right onto the road towards the ski resort Krvavec. Continue to the village of Grad, where the signs for Ambrož pod Krvavcem direct you to the right on a steep asphalt road (straight ahead to the lower station of the circular cable car to Krvavec and Štefanja Gora). When the steepness of the steep road eases slightly, you will come to a crossroads, where you will continue to the left in the direction of Ambrož pod Krvavcem (straight ahead to the settlements of Ravne, Apno and Šenturška Gora). A little further on, the road descends a little and then climbs over slopes that are sometimes quite scenic. Higher up, you reach Ambrož pod Krvavcem, where you pass the church of St Ambrose and the tourist farm Pr Ambružarju on the left. From the tourist farm onwards, the road passes into woods and climbs relatively steeply. When you reach the left-hand serpentine, you are at the starting point, where you can park at a suitable place, at a small crossroads.
b) From the motorway Jesenice - Ljubljana, take the exit Kranj - East, then continue towards Brnik, Komenda and Mengeš. When you reach the main roundabout at Spodnji Brnik, continue driving towards Cerkeliai and the ski resort Krvavec.

Continue to the village of Grad, where signs for Ambrož pod Krvavcem direct you to the right on a steep asphalt road (straight ahead to the lower station of the circular cable car to Krvavec and Štefanja Gora).

Path description:
From the starting point, follow the forest road that crosses the slopes of Molnar's Bank. Follow the road as it climbs slightly and then reaches a small crossroads where you continue slightly left along the upper road (the lower road or cart track soon ends), along which you can also see markings. There is a few minutes of cross-country climbing, along a road from which we occasionally get some views. A little further on the road splits again, and this time we take the upper left road, from which a steep cart track branches off to the left only a few 10 steps further on. Continue along the road and a marked footpath branches off at a right-hand bend in a straight direction. The road, which continues to descend, soon turns back to the left and leads past a ramp. During the descent, we cross a marked path which has recently been diverted from the road, and we continue on the road in a cross-descent until we reach the upper part of the mountain pasture Osredki. From the top of mountain pasture continue right and within a minute or two of further walking you will reach the tents at mountain pasture Osredek.
From the tents at mountain pasture continue eastwards, soon reaching the eastern edge of mountain pasture, where the marked trail from the village of Slevo and the unmarked trail leading by the Koroška Falls join from the right.
Continue into the forest and start climbing up the initially quite steep slope. Higher up, we reach a ridge where we join a path on the left which bypasses mountain pasture Osredek.
Continue to the right (to the left of our starting point and Kriška planina) along the path that runs along the north side of the ridge. After a short crossing, the marked path approaches the ridge, and we leave it at this point and climb up the ridge in a few steps (slightly to the left, the marked path leading to Kamniški vrh).
After a few minutes of climbing, on the path that continues along the Planjava ridge, which is becoming more and more scenic, we reach the partly grassy summit.
Description and pictures refer to the situation in 2015 (November).
