Access to starting point:
We drive to Mojstrana, then follow the signs for Vrata Valley. We continue on the toll road, which is closed to public traffic in winter, following it to the large parking lot a few minutes before Aljažev dom v Vratih.
Route description:
From the parking lot we continue along the gravel road closed to public traffic, passing Šlajmerjev dom and quickly reaching Aljažev dom v Vratih.
At Aljažev dom we turn right towards Škrlatica, Dolkove špice, Stenar, Križ and Kriška stena (straight Triglav, Luknja, Bovški Gamsovec, Pogačnikov dom via Sovatno, Stenar, Križ and Razor) onto the path leading us across the meadow into the forest. The path ascends first along a gentle cart track, higher up turning into a gradually steeper hiking trail that brings us to the bed of a torrent, which we do not follow for long. Higher up the path temporarily turns right and ascends steeply through the forest, later beginning to turn left, crossing a short scree slope, and gradually approaching the slopes below mighty Stenar. We quickly reach these slopes and ascend through scrub and past individual larches. Leaving the scrub belt we reach a small valley separating Stenar from Križ, ascending briefly along it, then the marked path turns right (straight to Stenarska vratca and Križ and Stenar via the mentioned gate).
A short ascent follows in increasingly alpine terrain and about 100 elevation meters higher we arrive at a somewhat larger junction where the path to Škrlatica continues right, while we go left towards the nearby bivouac Na rušju, Križ and Kriška stena.
From the junction only a short easy ascent remains and we reach bivouac Na rušju, also called bivouac IV Na rušju.
Starting point - Aljažev dom 0:05, Aljažev dom - bivak Na rušju 2:55.

Discussion about the trip Aljažev dom v Vratih - Bivak na Rušju

Could someone please monitor the "occupancy" of bivouacs in the Julian Alps. This year I have already twice come across a group of Czechs who are vacationing in the bivouac and even get grumpy if you pass by to take a quick look inside. In addition, I saw 5 empty water bottles inside, which I believe were once full and intended for emergencies. If someone is vacationing inside, at least clean up their mess afterwards or have enough conscience to leave some treat, a can or at least a candle upon leaving.

That's true, I completely agree. Order needs to be made in this area! We all know what bivouacs are intended for.

Hello
yesterday I was at Bivak 4. Based on what was written, I was worried about what a pigsty it must be up there now. But I was pleasantly surprised. There was no mess inside at all, sure it wasn't like a 5-star hotel, but despite the large visit of Czechs and Poles it was in solid condition. There were some bottles and plastic bottles, and some rag was found. I carried the trash down to the valley.
If some extra plastic bottle in the bivouac bothers you so much, it can be nicely squeezed and carried down to the valley without problems.
No hard feelings.

It's not about carrying trash to the valley, it's about it being good to always have water supplies in bivouacs, since they are intended for extreme emergencies.

. . . that there are always water supplies in bivouacs, since they are intended for extreme emergencies.
 That's a good one

Water supply are you kidding, tough guy? Bring it with you if you need it. Best if they make it for you.

No, in reality there is actually nothing wrong with a plastic bottle being present in a bivouac that has no water source of its own, and it's certainly nice if some visitor leaves one there from time to time. This is quite common in Italian bivouacs. But the etiquette for using this water applies - leave those bottles alone. Open them only if it's really an extreme emergency.

It's not wrong, but if there was a crate of beer it would be even better

I've already been on quite a few 'easy marked paths' of this length and height, but I think this could be marked as a 'partly demanding' marked path. On a couple of sections I definitely had to use my hands. Otherwise nothing worse or particularly dangerous, but still!...
