Access to starting point:
From Škofja Loka we drive towards Gorenja vas and further to Hotavlje, where we turn right in the direction of the village Leskovica. The road then soon brings us to Kopačnica, where we notice signs for Ermanovec, which point us to the left over a bridge. Because at the starting point there are no appropriate parking spots, it is better to drive a little upwards with the car on the narrower road, which through the hamlet Kopačnica brings us into the ditch of the stream Podkovščica. We park above the village on an appropriate place by the road.
To the starting point we can also come from the direction of Žiri and Cerkno.
Route description:
Above the village, the road by which we have parked gradually changes into a cart track which moderately ascends beside the stream Podkovščica. The cart track on which we walk crosses the mentioned stream a few times, then at the partial blockage of the ditch turns sharply to the left, where it also ascends a little steeper. The path ahead ascends diagonally for a few minutes, then brings us to a wide indistinct ridge, where it again turns to the right. We further follow the blazes, and the path in a moderate ascent through the forest brings us to the nearby forest road, which we follow to the right (at the spot where we step onto the road there are no blazes).
We continue the ascent on the more and more panoramic road, which with nice views on Blegoš and surrounding hills brings us to the homestead Erženovše. Above the farm macadam replaces asphalt, and after 3 minutes of additional walking we arrive at a marked crossroad, by which we notice a bigger chapel.
From the crossroad, which is situated in the main ridge of the 1005 m high Štor, we continue left in the direction of the mountain hut Dom na Ermanovcu, which we reach after 5 minutes of additional walking.
