Planina Polog - Planina Laška seč

Access to starting point:
First, we drive to Tolmin, from there we follow the road in the direction of Zatolmin (we leave the main road at the traffic light). In Zatolmin we notice signposts for Javorca, which direct us onto an ascending road towards Javorca. The occasionally quite narrow and in places precipitous road brings us, after approximately 8 km of driving, to a smaller intersection, where the road towards Javorca branches off to the left upwards. Here we turn left and follow the road for another good 100 m to the marked parking lot.

Route description:
From the parking lot, we continue on a concrete road, which quickly enters the forest and starts to ascend steeply. After approximately 15 minutes of walking, the forest thins out, and the road turns sharply to the right. There follows only a few minutes of walking along the edge of the pastures and the road brings us to the memorial church of the Holy Spirit on Javorca.
We bypass the church on the left side and continue on a wide and initially gentle cart track, which quickly passes into the forest. Here we can hear, to the left below us, the roaring of the waterfall of the stream Peščak, but we continue on the marked path (cart track), which higher up crosses the mentioned stream over a bridge. Further, we ascend on a moderately steep cart track, which continues partly through the forest, partly through dense shrubbery and brambles. Higher up, we cross one more of the numerous grazing fences and the path brings us to the mountain pasture Črča, on which a few old cottages stand.
Just before the cottages on the mountain pasture, the signs for the mountain pastures Sleme, Medrje and Laška seč direct us slightly to the left, where we ascend through high grass to an indistinct ridge along which a grazing fence runs. Further, we ascend along the grazing fence, then the path enters a dense forest, where it steeply ascends for a short time to a trough with water. Here the path turns slightly to the right, where after a few 10 steps it brings us to the next grazing fence. We cross the grazing fence and walk to the cottages on the mountain pasture Laška seč.
