Planina Zajavornik - Blejska koča na Lipanci

Access to starting point:
From the highway Ljubljana - Jesenice, we take the exit Lesce and follow the road in the direction of Bled; there at the traffic-light intersection signs for Pokljuka direct us to the right. This road, which in the lower part runs through some villages and later starts to ascend more steeply, we follow to Mrzli Studenec (mountain pasture, which is located a good 50 meters behind the intersection, where the road to Bohinj branches off left downward). In the middle of the mentioned mountain pasture, from the main road a road branches off to the right, which runs to Medvedova konta, the monument Pri Rupah and mountain pasture Zajavornik. Here we turn right and in the next intersections we follow the road in the direction of the mountain pasture Zajavornik. The road then brings us to the parking lot near the mountain pasture Zajavornik.

Route description:
From the parking lot, we head onto the footpath in the direction of the mountain hut Blejska koča. The path, which at first ascends gently through the spruce forest, a little higher crosses a forest road, behind which from the left side soon joins the path from the NOB monument (Pri Rupah). The considerably wide path, which all the time runs in the embrace of spruce forests, higher brings us to the next junction, where we continue left in the direction of Lipanca (right Medvedova konta). We continue the ascent on a very wide cart track, which in a gentle ascent in a few minutes brings us to the grazing area of the mountain pasture Lipanca. Here the path turns right and in a moderate ascent leads along the right lower edge of the mentioned mountain pasture. There follows a crossing of a grassy slope and the path, which again brings us into the forest, makes a sharp right turn at the NOB memorial plaque, after which we come to the shepherd cottage and mountain hut on the mountain pasture Lipanca.

The trip can be extended to the following destinations: Vrh Razora (1 h 15 min), Debeli vrh above Lipanca (1 h 30 min), Mrežce, Okroglež, Lipanski vrh, Brda (1 h 15 min), Debela peč (1 h 30 min), Viševnik (2 h 30 min)
