Bele Vode - Jerebica

Access to starting point:
A) From Kranjska Gora over the border crossing Rateče we drive to Trbiž / Tarvisio. In Trbiž we continue left in the direction of Bovec and we follow the road to the crossroad near the lake Rabeljsko jezero. Here we continue right in the direction of Nevejski preval (V Žlebeh) / Sella Nevea. This road which is mostly ascending we follow to the bridge, where at the left turn road crosses the stream Bele vode / Rio Bianco. On the left side of the road, we will notice few smaller parking spots. There are many more of them left lower on gravel terrain, to which leads short turn off.
B) From Bovec, we drive to the border crossing Predel, from which we descend on the Italian side. Only a little after the lake Rabeljsko jezero we come to a crossroad, where we continue left in the direction of Nevejski preval (V Žlebeh) / Sella Nevea. Further, we follow the description above.

Path description:
From the parking lot by the edge of gravel terrain we catch marked path 653 for Jerebica / Cima del Lago we go on gravel road, we twice cross area, where after snow melting flows thaw-water into lake Rabeljsko jezero. Before we come on the edge of the forest we see signpost, which points us right, after few 10 meters we go once again right, and after next 10 meters on the left upper cart track. This soon flattens and changes into flat footpath in the forest, only few meters above gravel terrain. When the footpath brings us to a cart track we continue left, higher on next turn off, where the path 654 branches off to the right again left. We continue for some time on a gentle cart track, whereupon cairn and trail blaze leads on a forest footpath which partly in zig-zags we follow for half an hour. Higher, we come out of the forest, we several times cross areas, which are a little more covered with bushes. Higher, we are ascending right above bottom of the valley, above which the path passes left and is ascending partly on the scree, which takes us on a saddle Jezersko sedlo. Here the path joins with the one from Možnica and there continues left (signpost Cima del Lago 1.5h). We continue on a footpath which is only slowly ascending, a little further turns sharply right below Gorenji Vogel and then once again sharply left, whereupon the path for a short time leads on a wide ledge, higher we slowly ascend on an indistinct saddle between Gorenji Vogel and Gorenji Krivi rob. We ascend a little steeper, then the path turns to the left, where right below the summit of Gorenji Krivi rob flattens, whereupon follows a descent (here we for the first time see the very peak of Jerebica. First gently, then also over 5 meters rocky section, which we have to climb, but holds are good, so there aren't any problems. We soon come on the saddle between Gorenji Krivi rob and Jerebica, then follows diagonal light ascent towards the summit, meanwhile because of demanding terrain we also have to twice grab rocks. Higher, we come on the upper saddle, few steps higher we see on the left lake Rabeljsko jezero and soon se we find ourselves on the summit of Jerebica.
