Erjavčev rovt - Bela peč (above Dovje)

Access to starting point:
From the Gorenjska motorway, take the Jesenice - West exit and follow the road ahead towards Kranjska Gora. Soon we will notice signs for Dovje, which direct us right onto an ascending road, along which we quickly ascend to the upper part of the village. Through the village we follow the road in the direction of Kepa and Dovška Baba, then we come to a somewhat larger intersection, where we continue sharply left in the direction of Kepa. Further we drive for quite some time on a nicely maintained forest road, then we come to the next intersection. We continue slightly right (left Brinje, Rovt Vrse and Požarnica) on the road which a little further flattens out and then starts descending towards the confluence of Žaklja and Mlinca (near the confluence there is also a smaller artificial lake). We park at a suitable place by the confluence, or we can also park a little back at one of the suitable places by the road.

Route description:
From the confluence we first cross the stream Žakelj (not in the direction of Kepa), then we continue along the right stream Mlinca. The path ahead continues for a short time on a macadam road, then we come to an intersection, where we continue on the abandoned right road (left road leads to the hut on Erjavčev rovt). The right abandoned road leads us further across a landslide slope, then passes into the forest and higher finally ends by the nearby stream. We continue the path along the streambed, and after approximately 10 - 15 minutes of further walking, on the left side we notice a few smaller cairns, which direct us onto an initially quite overgrown and muddy footpath. Already after a short ascent we step into a dense forest, where we continue on a poorly visible but nicely traceable footpath. The path ahead gradually starts to ascend steeply, then higher brings us to the spot where we cross a short very steep and especially when wet dangerous for slipping slope. The path then flattens and starts turning more and more to the right, where we cross slopes towards the right. We follow the mentioned footpath all the way to the spot where it brings us to the edge of the macadam road.
We continue to the road and follow it to the right along which we quickly arrive at the saddle between Bela peč and Dovška Baba, where at the information board "Kako varno prečiti pašnike" (How to safely cross pastures), we continue left on the marked path which leads towards Dovje. The marked path, which turns left and continues parallel to the road, we leave already after a few steps and continue straight on the unmarked footpath which starts ascending towards Bela peč. Occasionally quite steep path, where especially when wet additional caution is needed, brings us higher to or along the ridge, where the footpath somewhat flattens, and only a few minutes of walking separate us from the top.

We recommend: trips from the same starting point, similar trips
