Rudno polje - Mali Draški vrh (via Jezerce and Srenjski preval)

Access to the starting point:
From the motorway Ljubljana - Jesenice take the exit Lesce and follow the road towards Bled. At the traffic lights in Bled, the signs for Pokljuka direct you to the right. Continue through Gorje and past the abandoned ski resort Zatrnik to Rudni Polje on Pokljuka (a large parking lot, a military barracks and a shooting range).

Path description:
From the large parking lot opposite the barracks at Rudne Polje, first cross the road and then look for the start of the forest road (there are also signs for Triglav at the start of the forest road) leading to the Viševnik ski resort. After about 10 minutes' walk along the road, you will arrive at the foot of the ski slope, where the marked trail splits into two parts. The right-hand path leads to Viševnik and Blejska koča na Lipanci, and we continue along the road for a short distance in the direction of Triglav, Vodnikov dom and Studorski Preval. When the road returns to the forest, you will see a marked path on the left, which begins to climb moderately through the forest. After a few minutes, get back on the road, which you will reach at a medium sized parking lot with space for about 20 cars (it is also possible to drive here, this will shorten the journey by about 20 minutes).
When you reach the parking lot, walk along the road for a few 10 m, and then signs will lead you slightly to the right onto a waymarked and well-trodden path that begins to climb through the forest. After a few minutes, the path lays down and gradually passes onto the relatively steep southern slopes of Plesišče (1790 m). There are a few minutes of scrambling before you reach the back of the aforementioned peak. Here the marked path turns right (straight down leads the unmarked but well-trodden path to Planina Konjščica) and descends some more. A little further on, we will see mountain pasture Konjščico below us on the left. Our path then stops descending and passes out of the forest between dwarf pines. The path that climbs again then leads us under steep rocky cliffs and soon afterwards leads us to a crossroads where we join the path with mountain pasture Konjščica. There is a short climb and the path leads us to a beautiful valley called Jezerce, where the path is laid. There are also signposts which direct us to the right behind the "Viševnik" markings.
At first, we walk along the path towards Maly Draškemu vrh. The path then turns slightly to the right and begins to climb up the valley between Mali Draški vrh and Viševnik. Initially, the path climbs up the left side of the valley, but in the upper part it turns slightly to the right and then climbs along a steep slope to Srenjski preval. From the Srenjski Prevala, continue left along the unmarked and less visible path, which begins to climb steeply up and along the unmarked ravine (sharp left Studor Preval). The path climbs slightly to the right of the ravine in the lower part, then briefly switches to its left (direction of ascent) side. Higher up, the gully climbs steeper and the path starts to disappear. Next, climb steeply up the ravine (with caution because of the large drop) and you will see some very old and completely faded markings along the "way". After a good 20 minutes of climbing, we reach a precipitous ridge, which opens up a beautiful view of the Krme valley and the peaks that surround it.
From here you can climb to the nearby eastern peak, which is a few metres away by an easier climb on an exposed ridge, or to the slightly more distant, but a few metres higher, western peak. This is reached by descending a little, then climbing a fairly exposed ridge in a few 10 steps to reach the summit.
