D postaja - Dom Petra Skalarja na Kaninu

Access to starting point:
a) From Kranjska Gora, via the Vršič pass or Predel pass, we drive to Bovec, where we park at the lower station of the Kanin circular cable car (the cable car is located near the petrol station). Then we buy a ticket and take the cable car to the D station.
b) From the Primorska side, we first drive to the Soča river valley and then through Tolmin and Kobarid to Bovec, where we park at the lower station of the Kanin circular cable car (the cable car is located near the petrol station). Then we buy a ticket and take the cable car to the D station.

Route description:
From the D station, we head slightly left onto the path towards Kanin and the hut (slightly right Prestreljenik and Rombon). Initially we walk along the ski slope track, then the path forks. Slightly to the right continues the path to Visoki Kanin and the path towards Prestreljeniško okno (also Okno v Prestreljeniku), we continue slightly left and walk along the foot of the screes to the foot of a small wall. Here wire ropes appear with the help of which we climb over the technically demanding section. After about 15 minutes the steepness eases, the scenic path then continues with some shorter ascents and descents, on exposed sections where the path runs above crevices or chasms, safety devices are still there to help us. We follow such a path, which continues through the world of Kanin plateaus, to the bivouac, from which we descend in a few steps to Dom Petra Skalarja na Kaninu.
