Koča pri Savici - Čelo (via Komna)

Access to starting point:
From Gorenjska highway (exit Lesce), Železniki or Soriška planina, we drive to Bohinjska Bistrica, and then we continue driving in the direction of Lake Bohinj. When we get to the lake, we bypass it on the left side and we continue driving in the direction towards the waterfall Slap Savica. We park on a payable parking lot at the mountain hut Koča pri Savici.

Path description:
From the parking lot, we go on a wide path, which ascends by the river Savica (direction Komna and waterfall Savica). After two minutes of easy walking we come to a small cottage (a stand), where the path towards the waterfall branches off to the right, and we continue straight in the direction of the mountain hut Dom na Komni. The path ahead leads us on an old military mule track and is ascending in numerous hairpin turns, all the time through the forest. When we walk the 48 hairpin turns the path brings us into a small indistinct valley between Dobračeva glava and Pleša. This small valley is called Pekel. Ascent ahead runs on a less steep slope, where on the right side we can notice a cave, which they made during the war. Ten minutes before the mountain hut Dom na Komni we come to a crossing, where we go left (right lake Črno jezero). Only few steps ahead we come to the next crossing, where the path which leads towards the mountain hut Koča pri Triglavskih jezerih branches off to the right (left Dom na Komni 5 minutes).
We continue in the direction of the mountain hut Koča pri Triglavskih jezerih on the path which after few additional strides, brings us to the next crossing. We again continue right (left mountain hut Koča pod Bogatinom) and we continue the ascent on the path which few times slightly ascends and then descends again.
A little further joins the path from the mountain hut Koča pod Bogatinom, and we continue ahead in the direction of the mountain hut Koča pri Triglavskih jezerih. Pleasant mountain path then crosses abandoned mountain pasture Razor, and a little later also swampy mountain pasture Planina na Kalu. Further, the path a little more descends and brings us on abandoned mountain pasture Lopučnica.
We continue left in the direction of the mountain pasture Za skalo (slightly left Dom na Komni) on a badly beaten path, which crosses slopes of the mountain pasture towards the northwest. The path which runs through high grass (in the summer months) little higher crosses a lane of thin forest and then turns a little towards the left. The path ahead steeply ascends and in few minutes of additional walking brings us on karst terrain of abysses and limestone pavements. Here the path flattens and on rocky terrain starts vanishing (we carefully follow the blazes). On this part, a breathtaking view opens up on mountains, which surround the valley Dolina Triglavskih jezer. We then follow the marked path only to a saddle Velika vrata, which we reach after few additional minutes of a light ascent.
On the other side of Velika vrata we leave an already little-visited path and we continue right on pathless terrain. At first, the passages among dwarf pines and limestone pavement terrain are relatively easy, because we get help from cairns, which are actually rare. We continue the ascent somehow in the direction towards the north, but there aren't any direct passages because of karst terrain. Because of the cracks, we occasionally have to do quite a large turn. When "path" finally brings us on the ridge, the orientation problems end. We continue the ascent on a more and more panoramic ridge and "path" then quickly brings us on an indistinct peak Glava za Bajto.
Further, we slightly descend, after that on a grassy slope of Čelo we ascend on a little known and even less visited peak.
