Access to starting point:
From highway Ljubljana - Jesenice we go to the exit Radovljica (from Gorenjska side exit Lesce) and follow the road ahead in the direction of Begunje. At the end of the village Begunje we turn right towards Tržič, and on the road we drive to a smaller crossroad, where from the right side joins macadam road. We park on an appropriate place by the crossroad.
To the starting point, we can also come from the direction Tržič.
Path description:
From the starting point, we carefully cross the road, and then we go on a marked footpath which leads on Dobrča (beginning of the path isn't marked). The path at first ascends through a dense forest and then it flattens and crosses slopes towards the right. Next follows a short descent and the path brings us to a cart track which we follow to the left. Cart track immediately starts ascending, and at the crossings we follow it in the direction where lead blazes. A little further from the right joins the path from Slatna, and we continue straight in the direction of Dobrča. The path ahead is moderately to steeply ascending through the forest, and we only occasionally cross some panoramic slope. Higher, we few times cross the forest road, and then we join a little wider path which leads from Hudi Graben. Further, we are still ascending through the forest, and marked path few more times crosses a forest road which leads to the mountain hut Koča na Dobrči. Eventually, the path turns a little to the right and it ascends a little steeper. Next follows crossing of a grazing fence and the path brings us out of the forest, from where we have to the mountain hut only few 10 strides.
