The approach to Planjava via Zelenice is nicely described in the mountaineering guide (Andrej Stritar - 111 trips in Slovenian mountains), but why not. However, this 'path' there is rated as VERY DEMANDING PATHLESS TERRAIN, so ... To Repov kot you can easily get via the beaten track that starts in Klin (red arrow for marking to Kamniško sedlo). Here we take the lower path (over the fallen trunk), and ascend without trouble along it, all along the left bank of the valley. To the pools the path finally leads over an open rocky slope, where steps follow some bent pegs (of little help, exposed to slipping). We spot the beautiful 'pool' after just a few-meter descent into scree (to the right), from the path among the bushes. Along the wide path in sparse forest in zigzags we continue upwards. Soon we reach the exceptionally scenic gravelly ridge, on which there still stands a lonely and visibly scorched storm shelter (once it burned here). STILL BEFORE IT a path branches off to the right to Srebrno sedlo (where you soon have to scramble briefly)! But we gaze from this ridge into the prominent overhang, which really draws us very close by itself. But caution! Higher in the slope, under the walls, another one appears, but don't go past it! So, over the gravelly flat of the ridge under the elongated overhang, at the end of which there is visibly scorched bush. Behind it briefly upwards along the indistinct wide gully, where to the left among bushes something path-like soon appears to us. Above us looms that huge overhang (or better cavity), but we traverse transversely across grass first to the left, then soon upwards along bushes (demanding, steep) under smaller walls, where a mature larch awaits us! Horizontally behind it yet another one! Traversing past the second is also the technically hardest part of the entire 'path' (very exposed, but good holds and steps, short). Behind the 'corner' a friendly cairn greets us. But this exposed spot can also be bypassed. Behind the first larch we descend easily down the cluttered gully, but not too far! Behind the end of the first wall we must immediately climb to the right again into the steep, grassy gully (very demanding), to which we get more nicely via horizontal traverse past that second (solitary) larch ... After this distinct gully only straight upwards (steep, visibly trodden, certainly by chamois) onto grass among bushes, behind which we step onto the open scree field. And the world opens up (Zelenice) ... From here to the summit of Planjava we can walk the whole time without major difficulties, after the scree field across more or less steep grass, seeking the easiest passages. But Sukalnik is also extremely invitingly close ... The approach via Srebrno sedlo is technically harder, but orientationally easier (as already written in the guide).  P.S. Once more. Only for those experienced in pathless terrain! zmp2, GPS track? Hm, for now I'm still very old-fashioned, but time ...  And good luck, wherever you are.
