Tržič (Slap) - Kamnek (via Ride)

Access to starting point:
We drive to Tržič, and then we continue driving towards Dovžanova soteska gorge. Still in Tržič, past 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 over 8.5 tons are not allowed to cross the bridge). After the bridge, the described path begins, 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 tens of 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 junction a few minutes distant.
From the junction, we continue on the right path čez Ride (left Kamnek po Seili), which continues ascending through the forest. At first we ascend diagonally towards the right, and then we reach an indistinct side ridge of Kamnek, where in short hairpin turns we steeply ascend towards the main ridge of Kamnek, which we soon also reach.
When we reach it, we join the path po Seili and Radetzkyjeva pot, and we continue right to the nearby junction, where we go once again right towards the summit of Kamnek (slightly left path bypasses the summit). There follows a few minutes of steep ascent on an increasingly panoramic path and we reach the 873 meters high summit above Tržič.
Description and pictures refer to the situation in 2017 (May).
