Access to starting point:
From Železniki we drive towards Tolmin or vice versa, we follow the road to the settlement Petrovo Brdo, where on a parking lot at the mountain hut Petrovo Brdo we also park. The mountain hut is located right next to a crossroad, where the road on Soriška planina branches off.
Route description:
By the mountain hut, we notice signs for Črna prst, which point us on a very steep path. After a short steep ascent, we step on a wide cart track which we follow to the right, and it quickly brings us to a torrent stream. Marked cart track soon turns a little towards the left and is then relatively steeply ascending through the forest. After approximately half an hour of walking, we come to mountain signposts, where there is a marked crossing.
We continue in the direction of Črna prst (left Kup and Podbrdo) and we continue the ascent on an ascending cart track which higher turns to the right and entirely flattens. After a few minutes of additional walking, we leave the cart track and we continue the ascent on a marked footpath. After a short ascent, the path flattens a little and brings us on the old, but very well-preserved mule track. We continue the ascent on the mentioned mule track, which through the forest and some gullies brings us to Lovčev bivak Pri Koucah (Lovčev bivak is just a name of the cottage and it is not possible to bivouac there).
Only a few tens of meters before the mentioned cottage, there is a marked crossing, where we continue right in the direction of Lajnar and Soriška planina. The path which ahead is not marked, continues on an old mule track, and it quickly brings us out of the forest, where we cross relatively steep slopes. Higher, the path passes into a lane of forest, where it turns sharply to the left. This easy-to-follow and increasingly panoramic path, which higher makes a few more zigzags, we follow all the way to the main ridge, where we again step on a marked path.
When we step on a marked path we continue sharply right (straight Možic and Slatnik) and then after a few steps we arrive at signposts. We continue in the direction of Lajnar and follow the moderately steep path, which ascends on and along the ridge of Lajnar, to the top, which we reach after approximately 10 minutes of additional walking.
The trip can be extended to the following destinations: Dravh
