Access to starting point:
From highway Ljubljana - Jesenice we go to the exit Lesce and follow the road ahead towards Bled. In Bled at the traffic lights, the signs for Pokljuka point us to the right. Ahead we drive through Gorje and past the abandoned ski slope Zatrnik to Rudno polje on Pokljuka (large parking lot, barracks and shooting range). From here we continue straight on a macadam road which a little further brings us to a crossroad, where we continue right (left Uskovnica). We follow this road to a parking lot at the end of the road (near are signposts for a mountain pasture Konjščica).
Path description:
From the parking lot, we continue right upward on a cart track in the direction of the mountain pasture Planina Konjščica.. Cart track that at first ascends steeply soon becomes gentle and a bit higher turns into a footpath. Next follows a moderate ascent on the path that is ascending by the stream Ribnica which in the upper part has a watterfall that we can see from the path. Further, the path crosses a well and passes to grazing area of the mountain pasture Konjščica. After few ten strides path crosses the next well and ascends a little to cheese cottage on the mountain pasture.
From the mountain pasture, we continue on a gently sloping meadow slightly upwards to the other side of the pasture.. There path passes into dwarf pines and at first, it starts gently ascending, but then it becomes steeper and steeper. In the last part of the ascent the path from Rudno polje joins us from the right. Only a short climb by the torrent follows to reach the grassy plain Jezerce. Here the path turns left and after few steps it brings us into central area of Triglav national park. Next, we ascend by a well towards Studorski preval. A little higher we cross a torrent and the path turns a little to the right into grassy slopes surrounded by dwarf pines. The path then ascends diagonally to Studorski preval from which a nice view opens up to Bohinj side.
On the saddle where we leave the marked path, we go left upwards on a small footpath. The path quickly brings us on a crumbly terrain where we could trigger stones to fall down (carefully). After that a steeper path follows which brings us on the ridge. We follow this path which is quite dangerous for slipping (because of the slippery sand on the path) to the top of the mountain Ablanca.
