Zatrnik - Forestry cottage Mali Vokel

Access to the starting point:
a) Take the Bled, then continue driving in the direction of Pokljuka. When you arrive at Zatrnik, do not park in the parking lot next to the Zatrnik Inn, but about 100 metres further on in the parking lot on the right side of the road. Parking in the parking lot in front of the inn is only allowed for guests of Inn Zatrnik (pr Jagru).

b) Leave the Gorenjska motorway at exit Lipce, then follow the signs for Kočna and later Spodnje Gorje. At Spodnje Gorje join the road from Bled, and we continue in the direction of Pokljuka. When you arrive at Zatrnik, park not in the parking lot next to the Inn Zatrnik, but about 100 metres further on in the parking lot on the right side of the road. Parking in the parking lot in front of the inn is only allowed for guests of Inn Zatrnik (pr Jagru).

Path description:
From the parking lot, follow the main road down to the parking lot next to the Jagru Inn, and we find the start of the trail in a small valley, where there are two children's ski lifts in winter. Continue along the Bambi ski slope (right-hand lift) and then, when the lift ends, continue uphill along the route of the former ski slope. The route continues along the ski slope, which turns increasingly to the left as you go higher up. Soon a steep ski slope branches off to the left, and we continue along a steeper right-hand ski slope. As the route of the former ski slope is further laid, a track branches off to the right, descending through a narrow lane of woodland, and then leading to a marshy meadow. Continue across the meadow to a nearby hut, where you will emerge onto a wider cart track.

From the hut, continue left into the woods and follow cart track across to a dirt road, which you follow to the right. Follow the road downhill gently at first and then climb up to reach the marked trail Bled (Zaka) - Pokljuka.
Here, the signs for Pokljuka point us sharp right onto the path, which climbs steeply across a slightly steeper slope. Higher up, we reach cart track, and we follow it up a small valley, where we quickly reach a crossroads by a small hut. After the hut, continue to the right and the marked path leads to Forestry cottage Mali Vokel, situated at an altitude of 1145 m.
