Access to starting point:
We leave Gorenjska highway at exit Jesenice - west (Hrušica) and we continue driving in the direction of Kranjska Gora. A little before the settlement Dovje, we leave the main road and we continue driving left in the direction of Mojstrana and valleys Vrata, Kot and Krma. Still before we cross Triglavska Bistrica, signs for Radovna, Kot and Krma point us to the left on a little narrower road which ascends past few houses. The road above the settlement Mojstrana starts ascending steeper and past the TNP sign brings us on Kosmačev preval, where the road branches off to the right into a valley Kot. Here we park on an appropriate place by the crossroad.
Path description:
From the parking lot, we go on a cart track which in a gentle ascent runs parallel with the road. At the beginning we continue on the right cart track, and after two minutes of walking another cart track branches off to the left and we go on it. At the crossings are also placed cairns, which help us at orientation. Further, cart track is ascending on a slope straight upwards and later turns into a footpath which starts ascending steeply. The path is poorly visible, but we get help from smaller cairns. The path then turns a little right and brings us on an indistinct small ridge. Here the path turns left and then follows this small ridge straight upwards. The path soon from the ridge brings us on steep slopes and is in zig-zags ascending to the main ridge. Here the path once again turns left and is still ascending through the forest. For a short time the ascent becomes less steep but the path soon again steeply ascends. The last part of the path towards the bivouac runs mostly on slopes above the valley Vrata or on the ridge. The path then flattens and on the right side we notice a smaller cottage. This is bivouac on Črna gora.
From the bivouac, we continue on the ridge and at first, we slightly descend. Further, we then for long time walk on the ridge through the forest and we several times ascend and descend a little. And in doing so we also ascend on some less known peaks, namely on Predelov vrh, Nizka dolina and then also on Lengarjeva glava, where there is also a viewpoint, from which for the first time a view opens up towards the east. Because before that we were all the time walking through the forest and therefore the view was very limited.
