Access to starting point:
We drive to Tržič, and then we continue driving towards the Dovžanova soteska gorge. Still in Tržič, after the parish church and cemetery, which are to the right of the road, we turn left onto the bridge over Tržiška Bistrica (before the bridge there is a sign that vehicles above 8.5 tons are not allowed to cross the bridge). After the bridge is the beginning of the described path, and we park at a suitable place.
Route description:
From the bridge, we continue on the asphalt road which leads us past some buildings, and then it starts ascending diagonally towards the right. A few 10 meters further from the transformer we continue slightly left, on a cart track which ascends past gardens and after them passes into the forest. In the forest signs for Kamnek from the cart track point us slightly to the left, on the path which at first ascends parallel with the cart track, and then turns left and ascends diagonally to a crossing a few minutes distant.
From the crossing, we continue on the left path in the direction of the path po Seili (right path via Ride). There follows a few minutes of diagonal ascent, and then we reach the ridge, where the path turns right and starts steeply ascending. The path ahead leads us past a bench, at the smaller crossing above the bench we continue along the ridge, and then we arrive at a technically demanding spot, where with the help of fixed safety gear we steeply ascend. When the fixed safety gear end the path is still steep for a short time, then it flattens and higher joins the Radetzkyjeva pot, to which from the right also joins another path from the hamlet Slap, namely the path via Ride.
This time as well we continue straight, at the next crossing we go slightly right in the direction of Kamnek (slightly left path bypasses the peak). There follows a few minutes of steep walking and an increasingly panoramic path brings us to Kamnek.
Description and pictures refer to the condition in the year 2017 (May).

Discussion about the trip Tržič (Slap) - Kamnek (Po Seili)

It seems the path is not much used, this probably applies only to the lower part until the junction with the ridge path, as it's quite overgrown. Also, the branch-off (photo no. 9) is poorly visible due to some small clearing.
Otherwise, steep, interesting, varied terrain that provides a diverse ascent. Kamnek is an excellent viewpoint!
