Access to starting point:

We drive from Bled or Jesenice to village Gorje and then we continue driving to Pokljuka. When road brings us to shooting range on Rudno polje we park on a parking lot near the shooting range.

Path description:

We start at the parking lot and orient on a cross country skiing route going towards Viševnik. We come to a ski slope after 10 minutes of walking. There we continue walking on a road going on the left side of the ski slope and soon crosses it. We have to be careful at crossing this ski slope while it is working. We continue walking on the other side and the road soon brings us to a crossroad. Here we orient to left upper road where a gate is. After couple of minutes of walking we come to a mountain pasture where a beautiful view opens. Road goes around this mountain pasture in a slight gradient. We leave this road after 5 minutes of walking and we orient to left on a pathless terrain. Slope is quite even at first but we soon come to a steep gradient. A little or sober avalanche can launch in unpleasant conditions. But a chance is smaller because of an overgrown terrain. It is better to turn back if we aren't sure about conditions. Steep reduces after 20 minutes of walking and we continue in direction of unexpressed ridge upwards. Path on this wide ridge brings us to a channel on our right side. Our path continues above this channel and we cross it at his beginning. Path rises steeply for a short time and brings us to less overgrown slopes under Mali Selišnik. We can see it on the righ side. It is recognizable for its rocky slope. We orient towards this mountain and cross it on the left side. We continue walking on slopes overgrown with dwarf pine. When we climb on the first hill a view towards unexpressed top opens. This very cloes top is Srednji Selišnik. Veliki Selišnik is behind at right. We can reach Srednji Selišnik without any problems. Orientation on this path is very hard and almost impossible in forg. Part of the way is exposed to avalanches.
