Access to the starting point:
From the motorway Rupa - Rijeka / Rijeka or Zagreb - Rijeka / Rijeka, drive towards Rijeka, and from there follow the signs for Krk Island. When the motorway or, in the last part, the expressway ends, descend to the Krk Bridge. On the island of Krk, follow the signs for the islands of Cres and Lošinj and the ferry port of Valbiska. At the ferry port, take the ferry to Merag on the island of Cres (126 kuna - July 2020). On Cres, follow the signs for Mali Lošinj. In Osor, cross a small bridge to reach the island of Lošinj. We continue on the main road, and near Nerezine, a narrower road branches off to the right towards Halmac. Take the road mentioned above, which then climbs and becomes a dirt road. Follow the road to the last houses where there is a small parking area on the left side of the road.
Path description:
From the small parking lot, continue along the road past the last house, then the road turns into the woods and becomes a track. Follow the signs and the path continues along the fence, mostly northwards. Here the path is quite sloping and occasionally we get a view of the Osoršćica mountain range. Continue along the mostly sloping path and follow the signs for Tržić.
The path then climbs slightly a few times and then leads to a crossroads of several paths. To the right are two paths leading downhill towards the Lopari bivouac and the town of Osor, while we continue on the far left, following the signs for Tržić and Osoršćica. The path then soon leads along a stone fence to the abandoned village of Tržić, where you will see some ruins along the way. Continue straight ahead and the path will lead you to a marked crossroads where the path from Osor joins from the right.
Continue slightly to the left and follow the signs for the mountain lodge and the Televrina peak. From the crossroads, a relatively gentle path runs westwards and after about 15 minutes leads to the next marked crossroads. Here, a more direct path branches off to the left towards peak Televrina, and we continue to the right towards the mountain hut.
The path then briefly joins the road twice, and then rejoins the track through low forest and scrub. The path then leads us into a slightly more dense forest, where there is also a bench and a suitable resting place.
As the forest becomes thinner, beautiful views towards the sea begin to open up. The path then crosses the road once more and then climbs for some time along bushes and low trees. This path then soon leads us to a mountain hut from where a very nice view opens up to the west.
