Tinčkova koča - Hunting cottage above Doslovška planina

Access to the starting point:
Drive to Žirovnica, then follow the signs for Valvasorjev dom pod Stolom. When you reach the crossroads in front of the Završnice lake, continue straight ahead from the crossroads (left Valvasorjev dom pod Stolom) and continue along the left side of the lake. Follow the dirt road through the Završnice valley. Higher up, at a small crossroads, continue straight on, then drive all the way to the parking lot below Tinčkova hut. The last part of the road to the starting point is steeper and often rutted.

Path description:
At the beginning of the parking lot, signs point to the left into the forest. After a few metres we reach a crossroads where an unmarked path to Hochstuhl (the path over Zagon) branches off to the right, and we continue to the left along the marked path, continuing mostly on a slight ascent through the forest, crossing quite steep slopes that can be very dangerous to slip on in the snow, but also otherwise more caution is needed. Later, the path leads to cart track, where it continues to the left. When we reach the wider cart track on an indistinct ridge, which the marked path only crosses, we continue on cart track to the right (left Doslovška planina), and at the nearby crossroads we take the left-hand tracks. Higher up, the track is laid, and then leads to a hunting lodge, from which a fine view of part of the Julian Alps opens up.
