Spodnja Lipnica (Kolnica) - Razpok

Access to starting point:
A) From the Ljubljana - Jesenice highway we take the exit Naklo, Podtabor or Brezje, then we continue driving in the direction of Kropa. At the crossroad where the straight road continues towards Kropa we turn right and further we drive through Kamna Gorica. Further we for some time still drive through the Lipniška valley, then we turn left in the direction of Spodnja Lipnica and the hunting cottage Lovska koča na Taležu. Before the hamlet Kolnica and still before we cross the stream Lipnica for the second time (first time we cross the stream at the end of Spodnja Lipnica), we park by the information board of the water learning trail Grabnarca.
B) From the Jesenice - Ljubljana highway we take the exit Lesce or Radovljica, then we continue driving in the direction of Radovljica and later the villages Lancovo, Lipnica and Kamna Gorica. Further the road over a bridge crosses the river Sava and on the other side it gradually starts to ascend. The path ahead leads us through Lancovo, then we descend into the Lipniška valley, where we soon turn right into Spodnja Lipnica, from there we continue driving towards Talež. Before the hamlet Kolnica and still before we cross the stream Lipnica for the second time (first time we cross the stream at the end of Spodnja Lipnica), we park by the information board of the water learning trail Grabnarca.

Route description:
From the starting point we continue left on a worse road, after a few tens of steps from the junction we also continue left and continue walking on a wide ascending cart track. For some time we ascend diagonally to the left, where the path leads us past a smaller spring, then we continue sharply right in the direction towards Razpok. A little further the cart track turns left again, at the next junction we go right again towards Razpok. There follows some diagonal ascent to the right, the cart track turns into a forest path which is somewhat less trodden, but quite easy to follow, higher up along the path there are also some older blazes. During the ascent some views occasionally open towards the Karawanks and part of the Kamnik Savinja Alps, the path also leads us past a smaller sign. The path, which mostly runs through the forest, higher crosses a cart track, then in a few minutes of further walking brings us to a macadam road, where we also step onto the edge of Razpok, where a little further there stand some cottages, from the edge of the plateau by one of the cottages a wonderful view also opens onto Gorenjska and the Alps.
