Planina Blato - Planina Krstenica (hunter's way)

Access to starting point:
From the Ljubljana - Jesenice motorway, take the Lesce exit and follow the road towards Bled and further towards Bohinjska Bistrica. Continue driving towards Lake Bohinj (Ribčev laz), where we reach a junction and continue right towards Stara Fužina. In Stara Fužina, at the junction by the chapel, turn sharply left onto the ascending road towards Planina Blato, Planina Vogar and Voje Valley. The road then takes us to the toll and parking fee collection point, but we follow it further to the next junction, where we continue left (right to Voje). Then follow the road to the next junction (it takes quite some time driving), where we turn sharply right towards Planina Blato (straight to Planina Vogar). Follow this road to the parking lot above Planina Blato.

Route description:
From the parking lot, continue on the gravel road which takes us past the barrier in a few steps to a right bend. On the right side of this bend, we will notice the start of the hunter's path, which with the aid of a fixed cable leads us over a short very steep slope. The path soon enters the forest and turns slightly to the right, soon crossing a wide cart track (you can also go by road up to here, or higher on the cart track).
Further on, we ascend along a pleasant forest path that climbs parallel to a relatively steep cart track. Higher up, the path turns left, and from the right a trail joins us that leaves the cart track about 15 minutes above Planina Blato.
The hunter's path continues through the forest with some short steep ascents and after about an hour of walking brings us to a small hunter's hut located on the left side of the path. Here, a one-minute path also branches off to the left to a viewpoint where we can observe Planina Blato below us.
From the hunter's hut onwards, the path soon takes us out of the forest, where we rejoin the cart track. Only another five minutes of walking remain to Planina Krstenica, where a beautiful view opens up of Ograde, Krn and the Bohinj - Tolmin mountains, sometimes called the Lower Bohinj Mountains.
Starting point - hunter's hut 1:15, hunter's hut - Planina Krstenica 0:15.
