Access to starting point:
First, we drive to Kamnik, and then we continue driving in the direction of Kamniška Bistrica and the cableway to Velika planina. In Stahovica we continue left (direction Kamniška Bistrica and Velika planina cableway) and follow the moderately ascending road to a large parking lot near the lower cableway station to Velika planina (the parking lot is located on the right side of the road).
Route description:
From the parking lot, we continue on the road in the direction of the mountain pasture Planina Dol and Velika planina. After approximately 100 meters of walking on the road, just before the first right turn, we will notice on the left side an initially wide footpath which ascends into the forest (turn-off isn't marked). We continue on the mentioned path, which soon crosses a lane of bushes and immediately thereafter brings us to a junction, where we continue on the right path. Further, we ascend on a footpath which after a short ascent brings us to a forest road which we follow to the left (unmarked).
After a minute or two of walking on the road, we come to a marked junction, where we continue right on a marked footpath. The path ahead first gently ascends among patches of wild garlic, and then it starts ascending steeper and steeper. A relatively steep path, which all the time runs through the forest, brings us higher to a short part that is exposed to falling stones. Further, the path ascends even steeper, and then turns to the left, where the steepness decreases. Only a few minutes of easy walking follow and the path brings us to a forest road which we follow to the right. The road, which immediately passes out of the forest on the western edge of the mountain pasture Planina Dol we follow approximately 5 minutes, to a marked junction, where we continue right - direction Velika planina towards shepherd huts on the mountain pasture (left mountain pasture Rzenik and Konj), which we reach after a few additional strides of easy walking.

I walked this trail on Sunday, April 29. Nice, easy trail that doesn't tire you too much. Planina Dol is all covered with crocus carpets. And some video snippets here

Has anyone walked this path after the floods?

The path is torn up and in places washed away. It's possible, but not pleasant. On the PZS website it's stated that the path is closed.
