Access to starting point:
From the Ljubljana - Jesenice highway, we take the Podnart (Ljubelj) exit, then continue driving on the fast road towards Ljubelj and Tržič. When the fast road ends, we will notice a gas station on the right side, in front of which we turn right downhill towards Tržič. Further, we drive through Tržič, following the narrower road towards the Dovžanova soteska gorge and then through the villages Dolina and Jelendol to Medvodje, where we park on the marked parking lot by the nearby crossroad.
Route description:
From the parking lot, we continue on the right road in the direction of Storžič, Stegovnik and Stegovniški slap waterfall (left - Košutnik, Košutnikov turn and mountain pasture Dolga njiva on a marked path), after a few dozen steps we continue straight (right - Stegovniški slap waterfall). The path ahead leads us on a macadam road which continues along Tržiška Bistrica, and when we get to a crossroad at the confluence of the rivers Tržiška Bistrica and Fevča, we continue on the left road which continues along Tržiška Bistrica. Higher, the road turns sharply left and only a few steps further brings us to a crossroad, where we go right (the left road leads towards Medvodnica 1202 m). Next follows an ascent in a few hairpin turns, then a beautiful view opens up towards the west, the road still holds to the direction along Tržiška Bistrica, although we occasionally move away from the riverbed. When higher we again cross to the right bank of Tržiška Bistrica then we take the first cart track right, a few minutes further we join the cart track which continues from the end of the other forest road. Next follows a few minutes of ascent on a rutted cart track, then we choose a slightly rightward, more grassy cart track (left - mountain pasture Spodnja Dolga njiva - further marked path), which only a minute further crosses the marked path Jezersko - planina Spodnja Dolga njiva.
We continue on the cart track or if we follow the marked path to the right and in two minutes of further walking we arrive at the abandoned mountain pasture Brsnina.
