Dolina - Kofce gora (past the chapel)

Access to starting point:
From highway Ljubljana - Jesenice we go to the exit Podnart (Ljubelj), and then we continue driving on the road towards Ljubelj and Tržič. When "fast road" ends (blue sign), we will on the right side notice gas station, in front of which we turn right downwards towards Tržič. Further, we drive through Tržič, and we follow the narrower road towards the gorge Dovžanova soteska and further to the village Dolina, where on a macadam parking lot before the bridge over the river Tržiška Bistrica we also park.

Path description:
From the parking lot, we at first cross a bridge, and then on the main road, we walk to the near chapel, where we continue left by the garden and older residential house on the forest road. We continue the ascent on narrower and worse macadam road which leads us by the stream Kališnik moderately upwards. The road soon changes into a cart track, and it starts ascending steeper. Higher, we come to a water catchment, above which narrower cart track turns left and after few meters ends, and we continue straight over larger meadow, on which we ascend to a little bigger spruce, where blazes point us slightly right on steeper footpath. We continue on the steep path, which crosses a shorter lane of a forest and then it brings us on moderately steep grassy slopes, on which with nice views on Storžič and Stegovnik we ascend to a saddle Kal, where we also step on the forest road. From the saddle, from which a nice view opens up on Begunjščica, we continue right and in few steps we get to the cottage Zavetišče na Kalu.
From the cottage, we continue on a macadam road, where we quickly get to a marked crossing, where "direct" path towards Dom na Kofcah branches off to the left, and we go straight and we still continue on a macadam road. Higher (only a little after the quarry) we leave the road, because blazes point us slightly to the left on a footpath, on which we at first steeply ascend, and then we are ascending diagonally towards the right. A little further, we reach the other forest road which we only cross because signs for Dom na Kofcah - mimo kapelice (past the chapel), point us on a wide cart track. After few meters of ascent we continue on the right cart track, on which we quickly get to Mrzli studenec (a well). After a well path goes for some time in the forest and then it brings us on a clearing, by the edge of which stands a larger chapel.
From the chapel we continue left in the forest, through which we ascend to the near grazing fence. When we cross a grazing fence the footpath partly vanishes, but if we continue on a slope slightly towards the left, we will without any bigger problems come to the mountain hut Dom na Kofcah.
From the mountain hut, we continue in the direction of Veliki vrh and Kladivo on at first a little poorly visible path which starts ascending through a panoramic meadow. After 15 minutes of walking from the mountain hut Dom na Kofcah we get to a nice viewpoint by the cross.
The path then slightly descends and in few minutes brings us to steeper slopes of Košuta. The path then ascends through a lane of dwarf pines, where it brings us to a crossing. We continue right (straight Veliki vrh) on the path which already after few meters joins the path without the blazes from the mountain pasture Šija. We continue left upwards on the path which ascends steeply and it quickly brings us to an exposed passage. Without fixed safety gear we cross a short, but crumbly and slightly exposed ledge after which we go in a lane of dwarf pines. The path ahead ascends through a short lane of dwarf pines, and then continues on a side ridge of Košuta. More panoramic and pretty steep path higher joins the ridge path.
We continue straight upwards on an unmarked path, which after 10 strides it brings us to the summit (left Veliki vrh, right Kladivo).
