Access to starting point:
A) From Nova Gorica, we drive towards Tolmin or Most na Soči or vice versa and at the settlement Doblar we turn on a local road in the direction of the settlement Avče. At the crossroad at the beginning of the settlement Avče we turn left and we continue driving in the direction of Kal nad Kanalom. The road which is then mostly ascending, at all crossroads, we follow in the direction of Kal nad Kanalom. And when we get to the mentioned settlement, we continue left in the direction of village Cvetrež. From Cvetrež we go on the road a little further to the left turn, in the middle of which macadam road branches off to the right. At the crossroad, there are signposts for Lašček, and few meters ahead also suitable place, where we can park. From the main road to the starting point, there is approximately 13 km of driving.
B) From Zgornje Posočje, Baška grapa or the valley of river Idrijca, we at first drive to Most na Soči, and there at the gas station, we turn on a narrow road in the direction of Kanalski Lom. Further, we drive on narrow and occasionally also steep road which at the crossroads isn't well-marked. We mostly stick to the "main" road, and higher it at first brings us to Tolminski Lom and higher also to Kanalski Lom. From Kanalski Lom we are for some time still steeply ascending, and then the road gradually flattens. The road towards Kal nad Kanalom we follow few more kilometers, and then still before we get to the village Cvetrež, we get to the right turn, in front of which we turn left on a macadam road. At the crossroad, there are signposts for Lašček, and few meters ahead also suitable place, where we can park. From Most na Soči to the starting point, there is approximately 12 km of driving.
Path description:
Forest road by which we've parked immediately splits into two parts, and we choose right, which starts gently ascending. After approximately 10 minutes of walking, we get to the next crossroad, where we continue left in the direction of "Bremci". From the crossroad ahead, the road gradually starts descending and it brings us to the spot, where a road branches off to the left towards abyss Vodičnik (abyss Vodičnik is deep 250 meters and is almost vertical), and we go straight to the next crossroad, where we continue left in the direction towards Bremec. Further, the road again starts ascending, and also in the next crossroads, we follow the direction "Bremci". Next follows a little longer descent, and then the road ascends a little steeper to "former" homestead Bremec.
From Bremec ahead forest gets thinner, so that beautiful views start to open up on Matajur and Kanin, and higher also on Krn and other surrounding peaks. A little further, we get to a larger meadow, where there is also a small saddle, and at this spot, we leave the cart track and we continue right through a meadow into a lane of bushes.
The path through a meadow is poorly visible, but immediately, when we step into bushes there aren't any problems with orientation. After a shorter gentle ascent we reach another cart track, we follow it to the left and after few meters we leave it, because blazes point us to the right on a little steeper mountain path. Only a little further, we get to a well-marked crossing, where from the right side, the path from Lokovec joins (starting point Pri Cerkvi), to the left descends path to a crossroad Vrh Ječmenc, and straight continues the path on Lašček. From the crossing ahead we are mostly moderately ascending through the low forest, and the path quickly brings us on panoramic Lašček.
