Za Ušivcem - Jarški dom na Mali planini

Access to starting point:
A) First, we drive to Kamnik, and then we continue driving in the direction of the Črnivec pass. Only a few hundred meters before the mentioned pass we notice signs for Kranjski Rak, which point us sharply left onto a narrow and at first also quite steep road. The road flattens higher up and then brings us to the Volovjek pass, where immediately behind the Kranjski Rak inn we turn left onto a road in the direction of Velika planina. Further, we drive on a macadam road, which higher brings us to the next somewhat larger crossroad. We continue right (straight Planina Kisovec) and follow the moderately ascending road to the larger and marked parking lot Za Ušivcem.
B) From the Savinjska Valley we first drive to Luče, and then we continue driving towards Kamnik. When we arrive at the Volovjek pass (Kranjski Rak) we continue right in the direction of Velika planina. Further, we follow the above description.

Route description:
At the parking lot we notice signs for Mala and Velika planina, which direct us into the forest on a well-beaten but unmarked footpath. The path first ascends through the forest, then flattens and brings us out of the forest onto grassy slopes, where it turns slightly to the left and joins the forest road. We walk on the road only a short time, then arrive at the next signposts.
Here a slightly right-branching unmarked path leads to Velika planina, while we continue straight on the marked path in the direction of Mala and Velika planina. The path further still leads along the road, which past the hunting observatory brings us to the next marked junction, where a narrower road to Dovja Ravan branches off to the right. We continue straight along the road in the direction of Mala planina, which with nice views brings us to Gojška planina, from where we continue right in the direction of Jarški, Črnuški and Domžalski dom. After one hour and fifteen minutes of walking from the starting point, we arrive at Jarški dom na Mali planini.
