Dom Trilobit - Barentaler Kotschna/Struška

Access to the starting point:
From the motorway Ljubljana - Jesenice take the exit Lipce and follow the road towards Jesenice. When you reach the semaphoreised junction where you join the old road, turn right in the direction of Žirovnice. Follow this road for only a short distance, as at the next slightly larger junction (traffic lights) continue left in the direction of Javorniški Rovt. The road then passes through an underpass (railway) and then turns left (right Koroška Bela). Follow the road, which starts to climb steeply higher, in the direction of Javorniški Rovt, but only until the crossroads, where a sharp left turn to the right (straight) leads to the Trilobit home and the Javornik spring (no buses). A little further on, the road leads to the above-mentioned home and the storage lake at the Javornik hydroelectric power station. Park in the unregulated parking lot behind the lake and the Trilobit home (parking in front of the home is not allowed).

Path description:
From the parking lot, take the cart track towards the nature and mining trail. Cart track immediately starts to climb quite steeply on the left side of the stream that you can hear near you. Soon the path leads to a wooden pole where a signpost for mountain pasture Seča directs us to a slightly left path (to the right the spring of Javornik and mountain pasture Stamare). Cart track then leads to the vicinity of the stream along which it climbs to the spring (one of the springs of the Javornik stream). After the spring, cart track turns into a footpath, which climbs quite steeply in places, through a mostly quite overgrown forest. The path then approaches the wall and turns left before it. There is a less steep climb up to a bench, which is not in the best condition. The path continues to climb through increasingly sparse forest so that we occasionally open up beautiful views of the surrounding area. A little further on, we will see an amphitheatre called Rida on the right (to the right leads an unmarked and rather overgrown path towards Belščić). Our route turns left and after a short, not steep climb we reach the signposts at the beginning of mountain pasture Seč. We turn left towards Kahlkogel and in a few minutes we reach the shepherd's hut at mountain pasture Seč.
From mountain pasture, where you leave the marked trail at Kahlkogel, continue slightly right to a saddle where you see some signs. In the fog it will be difficult to see the saddle. At the saddle, turn left to the west and continue the ascent along the border line between Slovenia and Austria. The way ahead is marked and marked with Austrian markings, which are like a flag (red, white and red). The ascent is partly on grass, where the path is a bit harder to follow, and partly between dwarf pines, where it is partly overgrown. After half an hour's ascent from the saddle, you reach the summit, from which you descend almost 50 metres. After this descent, cross a small valley and, after a few steep steps, climb a ridge which you follow through dwarf pines to a grassy and scenic summit on which stands a cross.
