Molnarjev breg - Planina Osredek

Access to starting point:
A) From the Ljubljana–Jesenice highway, take the Vodice exit, then continue driving to the first traffic-light intersection in Vodice, where continue left in the direction of Cerklje na Gorenjskem and Brnik. When we arrive at the main roundabout in Spodnji Brnik, continue driving in the direction of Cerklje and Krvavec ski resort. At the end of the settlement Cerklje na Gorenjskem, leave the main road which continues towards Velesovo and Visoko and continue driving slightly right onto the road in the direction of the Krvavec ski resort. Further on, we arrive at the village Grad, where signs for the settlement Ambrož pod Krvavcem direct us right onto a steep asphalt road (straight ahead to the bottom station of the cable car to Krvavec and Štefanja Gora). When the steepness on the steep road eases a little, we arrive at an intersection, where we continue left in the direction of the settlement Ambrož pod Krvavcem (straight ahead to the settlements Ravne, Apno and Šenturška Gora). A little further, the road temporarily descends a little, then ascends through occasionally quite panoramic slopes. Higher up, we arrive at Ambrož pod Krvavcem, where we bypass the church of St. Ambrož and the tourist farm Pr Ambružarju on the left side. From the tourist farm onwards, the road enters the forest and ascends relatively steeply diagonally. When we arrive at the left serpentine, we are at the starting point, where we park in a suitable place near the small intersection.
B) From the Jesenice–Ljubljana highway, take the Kranj–East exit, then continue driving towards Brnik, Komenda and Mengeš. When we arrive at the main roundabout in Spodnji Brnik, continue driving in the direction of Cerklje and Krvavec ski resort. At the end of the settlement Cerklje na Gorenjskem, leave the main road which continues towards Velesovo and Visoko and continue driving slightly right onto the road in the direction of the Krvavec ski resort. Further on, we arrive at the village Grad, where signs for the settlement Ambrož pod Krvavcem direct us right onto a steep asphalt road (straight ahead to the bottom station of the cable car to Krvavec and Štefanja Gora).

Route description:
From the starting point, we head onto the forest road that crosses the slopes of Molnarjev breg. We ascend gently along the road, then arrive at a small junction, where we continue slightly left along the upper road (the lower road or cart track soon ends), beside which we also notice the blazes. There follow a few minutes of traverse ascent along the road, from which we occasionally get some views. A little further, the road splits again, and we again choose the left upper road, from which just a dozen steps ahead to the left a steep cart track branches off. We continue along the road, along which we walk to the right bend.
From the bend we continue straight onto the marked footpath, which continues transversely through the forest. In the forest we soon arrive at a signposted junction, where we continue right downhill in the direction of the mountain pasture Osredek and Kamniški vrh (the upper path leads to Kamniški vrh and bypasses the mountain pasture Osredek; it is also possible to continue towards Kriška planina). There follows a somewhat steeper descent, then we cross the road that we left shortly before and continue descending. Lower in the forest, the path turns left and levels out. There follow a few minutes of traversing, then we emerge from the forest onto the mountain pasture Osredek, where a few wooden huts stand.

The trip can be extended to the following destinations: Planjava pri Kamniškem vrhu, Kamniški vrh

We recommend: trips from the same starting point, similar trips, panorama, summit register
