Access to starting point:
From Kranjska Gora or Rateče we drive to Podkoren, and then we continue driving towards the saddle Korensko sedlo, which is the starting point for our tour.
Route description:
On the Slovenian side of the saddle Korensko sedlo, just before the first cottage (used to be a restaurant), we will at the end of the parking lot notice a path (ruts), which continues through a meadow. The traces soon vanish, and the "path" soon brings us to a wire fence by which we ascend to a smaller stream, which dries up in dry days. We continue the ascent by the mentioned stream (the terrain is in places quite overgrown), and then suddenly a relatively nice footpath appears, which starts ascending towards the right. We continue the ascent on the mentioned footpath, which through the forest, in numerous zigzags, brings us to a forest road.
We follow the road to the left, but only about 5 strides, and then we notice a footpath which ascends above the road and continues through dense forest. Further, an occasionally somewhat poorly visible footpath, which continues through the forest, brings us higher to a clearing, where we also step on the border ridge. From here to the top of Jerebikovec, we have only a few dozen strides of easy walking.
From Jerebikovec we continue on a well-visible footpath which starts descending along the border ridge towards the northeast. A pleasant path which runs on and along the narrow border clearing brings us, after approximately 20 minutes of descent, to the saddle Rekaršica, on which there stands a smaller shepherd hut (hut on the Austrian side).
From Rekaršica we continue on the Austrian forest road which ascends along the border ridge. The road soon turns a little to the left, and we follow it only to the spot where a marked footpath branches off to the right, which further ascends parallel to the road. After a few minutes of diagonal ascent we step on a smaller ridge, where from the left side the path from the village Strmec/Krainberg joins us. We continue sharply right on a moderately steep path, on which in less than 5 minutes of additional walking we ascend to Kamnati vrh.

The trail is neglected in a few places; it is harder to follow on several sections.
