Dom v Lepeni - Velika Baba

Access to starting point:
Between Trenta and Bovec in the village Soča, a road in Lepena branches off. This asphalt road we follow to the parking lot at the mountain hut Dom dr. Klementa Juga in Lepena.

Path description:
From Dr. Klement Jug House in Lepena we continue on a wide marked path in the direction of Krn lakes. After few minutes of walking a wide and not too steep path splits into two parts. The left one which is a bit steeper is a normal way and right one less steep and longer is suitable for small children and the elderly. Paths cross each other few times and are mostly ascending through the forest until we get to the upper station of the cargo cableway. From the upper station of the cargo cableway, we continue on the same path that is gently ascending on the wide transport road that quickly brings us to the measurements of the snow (every year in April).
The path ahead starts descending and after few steps it brings us to a poorly visible crossing. We go left on a poorly visible footpath which slightly descends over a smaller meadow. Turn-off of the path is marked (direction Velika Baba).
If we continue straight path brings us to the mountain hut Dom pri Krnskih jezerih (10 min).
The path on Velika Baba after that meadow brings us in a short lane of a forest, after which it joins the path from the mountain hut Dom pri Krnskih jezerih. The path ahead slightly ascends over high grass and after few minutes brings us on slopes below Velika Baba. The path ahead lightly ascends towards the left, after that makes turn to the right. Further, we are in a moderate ascent ascending diagonally on the scree. On this part beautiful views opening up towards Krn. Next follows few minutes of a steep ascent among dwarf pines, to the spot where the path brings us below the steep walls of Velika Baba. The path below the wall is nicely routed on the scree, which is partly already overgrown with grass. The path ahead brings us into a smaller valley between Velika Baba on the left and Velika Montura on the right. On this part, the path brings us to a smaller orientational problem.
The path brings us to a crossing of marked and unmarked path.
We go left in the direction of Velika Baba, few steps downwards. The path is then ascending on partly grassy and partly rocky slope covered with dwarf pines. The path which in the last part becomes a little steeper with increasingly beautiful views quickly brings us to the top of this panoramic mountain.
