Tolminske Ravne - Vrh nad Škrbino (on steep pathi and over Škrbina)

Access to the starting point:
Take the Tolmin, then continue in the direction of Žabč and Zadlaz (the turn-off from the main road is on the left bank of the Tolminka River). When you arrive in Žabče, at a small crossroads, turn slightly right towards Zadlaz. At Zadlaz-Žabče the road descends a little, where it crosses the Zadlaščica River via a bridge, and then starts climbing steeply again on a narrow, but constantly asphalted road. After about 12 km from the main road, you reach a marked parking area in Tolminske Ravne, where you park.

Path description:
From the parking lot, follow the path in the direction of Koča na planini Razor and mountain pasture at Kal. Initially, follow cart track, which continues from the nearby house and leads you across a meadow with a view. On the other side of the meadow, cross a pasture fence and the path leads to a marked crossroads, where you continue along the bottom right-hand cart track (slightly left-hand mountain pasture on Kal).
Continue along cart track, which descends gently to the right, then lays down and continues for a few minutes without any major changes in elevation. After the concrete trough, the path splits again and we take the steep left path (the path that continues straight ahead also leads to the mountain pasture Razor, but the path is longer, but not technically difficult).
The way ahead starts to climb again, and climbs mostly to the right, only making a serpentine here and there. Higher up, we move to steeper slopes, and a little further on to an exposed but, apart from the first few steps, well protected ledge. When the traverse ends, the path returns to the forest, through which it climbs more steeply, and then emerges from the forest and the path is laid. From here it is a few minutes' walk with beautiful views of the mountains rising above the Zadlaščice basin, and the path leads past the cheese cottage to the hut at mountain pasture Razor.
From the hut we continue in the direction of Globoko, Vogel, Vrh nad Škrbino. . . along the path which crosses the lane of a forest and then forks on a gently sloping grassy slope.
This time continue straight on in the direction of Vrh nad Škrbino and Dom na Komni (Vogel, Globoko and Črna prst to the right), following a path which turns slightly to the left and continues climbing up a slope covered with dwarf pines. After a few minutes, the path is gently laid and then, after a short moderate climb, it leads to the next crossroads, north of the undistinguished Kopecko peak. Continue left in the direction of Stubble Saddle (right Vrh nad Škrbino - southern route). The route soon afterwards emerges from dwarf pines onto interesting slopes, where we will see steep rock slabs on our right, forming an interesting wall for climbers, but not too steep. The route then ascends crosswise over scree to the saddle of Škrbina, which is situated at 1910 m. From the saddle, which is also the crossroads, continue right along the south side of the ridge in the direction Vrh nad Škrbino (Tolmin Kuk on the left). The path then takes us along a steep, slightly crumbly slope to the steep northern slopes. Here you reach the first steeply ascending steeply. The path then turns to the right, where, with the help of a few scrambles, we climb back up to the south side of the ridge. On the south side, the path climbs steeply along the cliff a few more times, and then becomes progressively less difficult. There is a 10-minute or so walk along the scenic ridge towards the summit. A few metres below the summit, a slightly easier direct route joins us from the right with the mountain pasture Razor.
