Path description:
From Jelovška cesta 10 we continue towards the southwest, where already after few meters, we notice signposts for Črna prst. From houses the path passes on a cart track, on which we in few minutes ascend to military cemetery from the first world war Rebro. The marked path bypasses the cemetery on the right side, and then leads us through an ample meadow, where few minutes ahead we join a little wider cart track. We continue slightly left, after that few 10 meters further we cross a macadam road, where at first a distinct cart track gradually starts ascending. Higher, at the crossing of cart track, we choose the right branch, by which there are old signs for Črna prst, from there we go little higher once again slightly right on a footpath which starts ascending steeper. All the time we are ascending by quite rare signs, after that on a smaller mowed meadow we reach the cart track which we follow to the left, there in few steps we reach a wider macadam road.
When we reach the road, we continue left downwards following the signs Črna prst (right old path towards the mountain hut Orožnova koča), and few 10 strides lower at the marked crossing we turn right in the direction of Črna prst, mountain pasture Planina za Črno goro and Orožnova koča. The path ahead on the right side bypasses a privat house (used to be mountain hut Planinski dom dr. Janeza Mencingerja), after that a little ahead it joins a cart track, on which we continue to ascend. A little higher, at the crossing we continue right, and then the path continues through the forest. Even a little further, the path leads past a log cabin and a cross, and then we already get to a marked crossing, where we continue left (right mountain hut Orožnova koča).
Further, the cart track changes into a footpath, and a little higher it brings us to a forest road which we follow to the right. Few strides we walk on the road, and then signs for Črna prst point us to the left on a steep footpath. We continue the ascent on at first relatively steep path, which further leads past a man made ditches, which were intended for drainage of water (ditch was built to prevent ingression of water into Bohinj tunnel). Higher, the footpath for some time entirely flattens, and then it moderately ascends to the mountain pasture Za Črno goro.
