Access to starting point:
A) We leave Gorenjska highway at exit Jesenice west (Hrušica), and then we continue driving towards Kranjska Gora. When we get to Gozd Martuljek, after the bridge through Sava Dolinka, we drive left on a marked parking lot, where we park.
B) We drive to Kranjska Gora, and then we continue driving towards Jesenice. When we get to Gozd Martuljek, still before the bridge through Sava Dolinka, we drive right on a marked parking lot, where there is the beginning of the described path.
Path description:
From the parking lot, we walk to cycling path, and then we follow it right in the direction of Kranjska Gora. We quickly get to the first crossroad, where to the left the path continues towards waterfalls Martuljkovi slapovi, and from the right joins the other path from the main road. We continue straight, on a cycling path in the direction of Kranjska Gora, and we walk there to few minutes distant next crossroad, where we continue left in the direction of log cabin Pri Ingotu.
The path ahead leads us on an ascending macadam road which is in the winter time converted in lighted sledding track. Higher, at an altitude of approximately 900 meters a road branches off to the left towards the before mentioned log cabin, and we continue straight and we follow the road few minutes to its end. From the end of the road, we continue on the path which goes into the forest and a little later relatively steeply descends in Tofov graben. On the other side of the torrent, the path again ascends a little and then joins to other forest road. On the mentioned road, we descend a little and then we get to a crossing, where the unmarked path branches off to the left on Kurji vrh, and to the right descends path towards Log.
We continue straight, on the road which continues to descend gently, only occasionally for some time ascends a little. After feeding site, which we notice on the left side, the road steeper descends and it brings us to a crossroad, where we continue sharply right (straight Rogarjev graben). Next follows a descent through the settlement Ivana Krivca, and when we reach the main road Kranjska Gora - Vršič, we carefully cross it, and then we continue left to the nearby lake Jasna.
