Path description:
From the starting point, continue left along the minor road, and after a few 10 paces, continue left from the crossroads and continue walking along the wide ascending cart track. For some time, we climb crosswise to the left, where the path leads us past a small spring, and then we continue sharp right in the direction of Razpok. A little further on, cart track turns left again, and at the next crossroads go right again towards Razpoku. There is some cross-climbing to the right and cart track turns into a woodland path, which is a little less well trodden, but can be followed quite well, and there are some older markings higher up along the way. During the ascent, we occasionally get some views towards Karawanks and part of Kamnik Savinja Alps, and the path also leads us past a small sign. The path, which mostly passes through the forest, crosses cart track higher up, and then a few minutes of further walking leads us to a macadam road, where we also step onto the edge of the Razpoka, where a few huts stand a little further on, and from the edge of the plateau, at one of the huts, we also get a wonderful view of Gorenjska and the Alps.
When you reach the wider road at Razpoku, follow it slightly to the left (right Goška ravan), and it will quickly lead you into the forest, through which you will begin to climb gently. There are a few crossroads where you continue straight on, the larger crossroads are marked, and there you follow the signs for Vodice or Vodiško mountain pasture. Higher up, the road, which passes through the forest all the time, then passes another slightly larger crossroads, where we continue again in the direction of Vodice, and after a while leads to Vodiška mountain pasture, where the Partisan Home is located.
