Ledinica - Planinska koča Mrzl'k

Access to starting point:
A) First, we drive to Škofja Loka, and then we continue driving towards Gorenja vas and Žiri. At the beginning of Žiri, we notice signs for Ledinica, which point us to the right on a local road which starts moderately descending. The road then flattens and brings us to the bridge over the river Poljanska Sora. After the bridge, we turn right and park on the arranged parking lot.
B) From the highway Ljubljana - Koper we go to the exit Logatec, and then we continue driving in the direction of Rovte and Žiri. We continue driving on a quite winding road which we follow to Žiri, here in the center of the town we notice signs for Ledinica, which point us to the left. Further, we drive through the industrial zone, and then we arrive at the bridge over the river Poljanska Sora. After the bridge, we turn right and park on the arranged parking lot.

Route description:
From the parking lot, we continue on a macadam road which continues parallel with the river Poljanska Sora, and we walk there only about a minute, because then blazes point us left through a meadow. On the other side of the meadow, the path starts ascending steeper, and it quickly brings us to the church of St. Anne.
Behind the church, we continue right on a cart track which starts turning more and more to the left and brings us to a marked junction. We continue on the left path in the direction of Mrzli Vrh (right Selo), and it descends to a nearby road. We continue on the road, and then we join a wider road which we follow to the right. We continue the ascent for some time on the ascending road, and then at the lonely house it changes into a cart track, on which we walk only for a short time because then blazes point us left on a footpath which ascends steeply through the forest. After a shorter steep ascent, we step on a tractor track, and we ascend there on a forested ridge. Higher, the tractor track changes into a mountain path, and it continues on and by the ridge of Ledinski grič. Higher, the path flattens and out of the forest it brings us to a nearby road, on which we descend to a junction. From the junction, we continue on an ascending road, by which we notice the blazes. Next follows an ascent on the more and more panoramic road, and with a view on Blegoš, Porezen and other peaks, we follow it to a marked junction, where the path branches off to the left upwards towards Žiri, Breznica and Mrzli vrh.
We go straight and continue the path on the road which starts gradually descending. After a short descent, we arrive at a marked junction, where we continue straight towards Bevkov vrh (left Ledine and Sivka). The path ahead lightly descends, including past the farm Vodičar, and then we arrive at a marked junction, where a marked path branches off slightly to the left to Bevkov vrh.
We continue on the road, to which from the left also the path from Sovodenj joins, and after the information board of the path Pot ob rapalski meji, we arrive at a smaller junction, where a relatively steep macadam road branches off to the right, on which in a minute of additional walking we ascend to the Planinska koča Mrzl'k.
