Suhadolnik - Cojzova koča na Kokrskem sedlu (old path )

Access to the starting point:
From the motorway Ljubljana - Jesenice take the exit Kranj - East and follow the road towards Jezersko, but only as far as the village of Kokra. In this village, just a few metres before the road crosses the bridge over the Kokra River, you will see a road leading towards Suhadolnik. The road turnoff is located when we are on the right side of the river (left bank) and the road marker is approximately 7 km. Follow this road to the parking area, which is about 300 m in front of the Suhadolnik farm.

Path description:
At the beginning of the parking lot, you will see mountain direction signs directing you to the road, which will take you to a small crossroads near the Suhadolnik farm in less than 5 minutes. Here we continue along the right-hand road, and we follow it for about 5 minutes, or until the place where the signs lead us to the ascending cart track. We continue for a short distance on cart track, and then the signs direct us to the right onto a footpath which climbs moderately through the forest. Higher up, we return to cart track, which leads us a few metres further to a forest road, which we then follow to its end (it takes about half an hour to get here).
At the end of the road, the marked path splits into two parts. Continue on the right path towards Cojzova koča along the old path (the left path (via Taško) is slightly shorter and also technically slightly more difficult).
At first you are still walking along the road, but after a few 10 m it turns into the ascending cart track, from which a marked footpath soon branches off slightly to the right. The path first climbs parallel to the track, then turns slightly to the right and quickly brings us to the lower part of the mighty ravine. We climb up the torrent to the narrowing of the gorge, and then signs direct us to the left on a rather steep path which leads us further along a slightly exposed slope. Higher up, the path transitions to lane of dwarf pines and then leads to steep and, especially in wet conditions, slippery slopes. It takes about 15 minutes to cross these slopes, where emergency fences help us on the most exposed parts.
Higher up, the path over the Taška joins us from the left, and the slope we are walking on quickly becomes steeper. There is a short cross-climb to the right and the path leads to a larger plain where the "old hut" once stod. Cross the tall grasses and walk to the other side of the plain to reach a marked crossroads.
Continue straight on (left Kočna čez Dolce) on a moderately steep path which climbs further through lane of bushes. Higher up, the path completely lays down for a while and then leads us between dwarf pines, where it starts to climb steeply. Follow this slightly steeper path, which offers increasingly beautiful views, all the way to the Cojzova koča on Kokrsko sedlo.
