Path description:
From the parking lot, we go on a marked path in the direction of Matajur, where we at first walk through the forest and for some time we step on a cart track. Next follows an ascent through two shorter meadows, and then we return into a dense forest, through which we are moderately to steeply ascending, and here and there path also slightly descends. Higher, we cross metal fence, behind which, the path turns right and continues on a cart track. Cart track soon ends, and we continue on a footpath which continues through partly grassy slope, surrounded by lanes of forest. Even a little further, the path turns left and on slopes of Srednji vrh entirely flattens.
Here we can on pathless terrain in few minutes ascend on Srednji vrh, otherwise we continue on a marked path, which crosses slopes of the mentioned summit and a little ahead joins the forest road. We follow the road to the right, and then we quickly get to a marked crossing, which is situated into a smaller valley between Mrzli vrh and Srednji vrh.
At the crossing marked path but without blazes branches off to the right on Mrzli vrh, Srednji vrh and Idrska planina, and we continue on the road which on the west side of Mrzli vrh splits.
We continue on the left road (right Idrska planina), which only a little further joins "new" path from Avsa or Livek.
From poorly noticeable crossing we walk on the road for few minutes, and then on next marked crossing we leave it and we continue right in the direction towards Matajur (straight Dom na Matajure).
Further, the path again starts ascending over partly grassy slope, from which increasingly beautiful views opening up on surrounding mountains. Higher, when the path gradually already passes on the northern slopes, from the right joins also the path from the village Svino, and we continue towards Matajur. Next follows few minutes of a diagonal ascent and we already get to a crossing below Glava, where in the direction of straight continues "Slovenian route" on Matajur and the path, on which we can get to Visoka Glava, and we continue left upwards and quickly ascend on panoramic eastern ridge of Matajur, where joins the path from Italy (starting point Mašera / Masseris).
We continue on the mentioned ridge, on which we are gently to moderately ascending on national border between Slovenia and Italy. Next follows few minutes of more and more panoramic walking and we get to the top of Matajur, from where also a nice view opens up towards the west.
