Path description:
From the starting point, we first carefully cross the road, and then we continue on a marked path in the direction towards huts Brunner and Corsi and bivouac Gorizia. We at first walk on a gently sloping path which runs on the left bank of the stream Beli potok, and quickly the path becomes steeper, from the path which otherwise mostly runs through the forest, beautiful views opening up on boulders, rapids and pools of the stream Beli potok. Higher the forest gets thinner, so that a nice view opens up, which reaches from the nearby peaks, to the border mountains between Slovenia and Italy. Higher, we cross also few torrents, and then past a source we ascend to renovated mountain hut Brunner.
