Ambrož pod Krvavcem - Planina Jezerca

Access to starting point:
A) From the highway Ljubljana - Jesenice, take the Vodice exit, then continue driving to the first traffic-light intersection in Vodice, where you continue left in the direction of Cerklje na Gorenjskem and Brnik. When you arrive at the main roundabout in Spodnji Brnik, continue driving in the direction of Cerklje and the Krvavec ski resort. At the end of the settlement Cerklje na Gorenjskem, leave the main road which continues towards Velesovo and Visoko, and continue slightly right onto the road in the direction of the Krvavec ski resort. Further on, you arrive at the village of Grad, where signs for the settlement Ambrož pod Krvavcem direct you right onto a steep asphalt road (straight ahead: lower station of the monocable gondola to Krvavec and Štefanja Gora). When the gradient on the steep road eases slightly, you will arrive at an intersection, where you continue left in the direction of the settlement Ambrož pod Krvavcem (straight ahead: settlements Ravne, Apno and Šenturška Gora). A little further on, the road temporarily descends slightly, then climbs through occasionally quite panoramic slopes. Higher up, you arrive at Ambrož pod Krvavcem, where a larger parking lot is located near the open-door farm 'Pr Ambružarju'. The parking lot is intended for guests of the mentioned farm; if you ask for permission, they will almost certainly allow you to park.

Route description:
From the tourist farm we return to the main road, from there a few steps further we continue left on the path towards Krvavec. The path leads us past a patch of wild garlic, higher up it crosses the asphalt road. After a fairly steep ascent, which mostly runs through the forest, we approach the road once again completely or even reach it for a few steps. Immediately we continue right in the direction of Planina Jezerca and ascend gently to moderately. Quickly we reach a cart track, along which we emerge from the forest onto Planina Jezerca, where some wooden huts stand.
