Access to the starting point:
From the Ljubljana - Jesenice motorway, take the Lesce exit and follow the road towards Bled and on to Bohinjska Bistrica. Continue driving towards Lake Bohinj (Ribčev laz), at which you will come to a crossroads, where you will continue straight along the left (south) side of the lake in the direction of Ukanec and the Savica waterfall. Follow this road to the bottom station of the funicular to Vogel, then buy a ticket and take the cable car to the top station, which is the starting point for our tour, unless we shorten it further (by 30 min) by taking the four-seater to Orlov glave. The chairlift is also open in the summer season.
Path description:
The route passes the Vogel Ski Hotel, the Merjasec mountain hut and down the ski slope past the Storeč station and the four-seater chairlift leading to the Eagle's Heads (there is also the option of a chairlift shuttle, which shortens the route by 30 minutes). The route then passes under the four-seater chairlift to the upper station of the Eagle's Heads. Here it continues under the chairlift to the upper station of Šija. The route initially follows a transport road for the ski resort, but soon narrows to a footpath. At the edge of the Šija - Last Vogel ski slope (i. e. just before the steepest section of all the slopes on the Vogel ski slope), turn right and cross the ski slope and continue in a westerly direction below the slopes of Šija. At the next crossroads one can continue along the upper ridge path (difficult) or along the slightly longer lower easy path, which starts to descend and turns slightly right, giving one the feeling of going the wrong way. Soon the path from the upper station of the double chairlift "Last Vogel" joins. Here the path continues to the left and then descends a little further. The path then picks up its rhythm and starts to climb gently. A little further on, there is a crossroads where there is a signpost for Vogel, which is followed up the path. The path starts to climb here and soon rejoins the difficult path and in the next steps leads to the Vrata or Vratca notch, which is the second lowest point between Primorska and Gorenjska from Mangart to Črna Prsta (after Vršič). The path then leads along a ridge which is steep and difficult, but well protected. The path then crosses the slopes and leads to the crossroads for Vogel, from which it continues straight towards Konjski sedlo, which is reached by a scenic and gentle path.
Exactly one fine bend of a few hundred metres before Konjski sedlo, namely below Rušnati vrh (1915 m), the marked path leaves and heads up the steep bank to the ridge. On the ridge, Rušnati vrh is on the left, with a view to the sea straight below, and an unmarked path runs along the ridge on the right, reaching Mejo (1996 m) in the final stage on the south side of the rocky ridge.

Namesto naravnost navzgor po meliščnati smeri na najnižji del grebena (sedla), kota 1923 m, predlagam (sploh če se želi osvojiti še sosednji Rušnati vrh) možnost pristopa (sestopa) cik-cak po bolj travnatem terenu proti Rušnatemu vrhu in potem po celem grebenu (ponekod rahlo krušljivo na Mejo.
