Brezje pri Tržiču - Šentanski vrh (on path Po robu and via Lešanska planina)

Access to the starting point:
Leave the Gorenjska motorway at the Podtabor junction, then continue in the direction of Ljubelj and Tržiča. Before the Petrol station, turn right in the direction of Bistrica pri Tržiču, then after the Tržič Police Station, turn left in the direction of Begunj na Gorenjskem. Continue through the underpass under the main road, and from the nearby roundabout continue "straight ahead", then follow the signs for Begunje na Gorenjskem. The road then begins to climb, and we follow it to the settlement Brezje pri Tržiču, where the signs for Dobrča direct us right onto a side road. After about 100 metres we reach a marked parking area, where we park.

Path description:
From the parking lot, continue left towards the path along the edge (right path over Bistriška planina), where you will initially walk along the road, and from the road, after the water tower, turn right onto the waymarked path towards Dobrča. The path ahead climbs moderately at first, but steeply higher up, mostly through the forest. As the path levels out, a short path branches off to the right to a viewpoint, and we continue left, where the path leads us along an undistinguished ridge. Higher up, we follow cart track for a short distance, then follow a relatively steep mountain path which comes to rest at Breška gora, where we also emerge from the forest onto the Dobrča airstrip.
From the take-off point, where Poldet's bench is located and from where a nice view opens up, continue to the right in the direction of Lešanska planina (straight ahead Dobrča and Koča na Dobrči. The way forward initially leads us along a worse road, but after a minute or two we arrive at a marked crossroads, where the path past Bistriška mountain pasture joins us from the right.
Continue slightly to the left and follow the steep cart track, which ascends crosswise to the right. During the ascent, a fine view to the east opens up briefly, and then the path returns to the forest for a short time. After crossing a pasture fence, the lower edge of the mountain pasture is reached.
At the crossroads in the middle of mountain pasture, where there is also a shepherd's hut, which is open during the grazing season, continue right (left) to the Hut on Dobrča and continue for a short distance along the folded cart track, and soon go slightly left on a steep track which climbs back to cart track via mountain pasture (the track makes a longer bend). There is a short cross-climb to the left and, as the views get better and better, you join the usual marked path leading to Dobrča (there are no markings on the part from the shepherd's hut to the above-mentioned crossroads).
Here you continue sharp right and in about 5 minutes you reach the top of Dobrča.
From Dobrča we continue in the direction of Šentanski vrh, first descending into a small valley between the two peaks, followed by a short moderate climb to the panoramic Šentanski vrh.
