Krnica - Planina Klek

Access to starting point:
From highway Ljubljana - Jesenice, we go to the exit Lesce and we follow the road in the direction of Bled. In the traffic light crossroad in Bled we continue right (direction Pokljuka) and we follow occasionally a little more narrow road to the village Krnica. Here we will notice signs for gorge Pokljuška soteska, which point us to the right (direction Radovna) and then already after few meters left. We all the time follow the road ahead in the direction of gorge Pokljuška soteska, by the beginning of which we park on the settled parking lot.

Path description:
From the parking lot, we go right, on the road in the direction of Klek and Kranjska dolina. The road quickly passes into the forest, where starts ascending steeply. A little higher, the road for some time flattens and past a smaller religious symbol (St. Miklavž) brings us on the other side of the ridge, as is gorge Pokljuška soteska. We continue on a relatively steep road which past pastures and shepherd hut brings us to a little bigger chapel, behind which we soon come at the marked crossing.
We continue slightly right (left Lipanca) and we follow worse road only few 10 strides, to the spot, where blazes point us on a footpath which passes into the forest. The path ahead is ascending through the forest, by the edge of ample mountain pasture Pokljuka. Higher, the path which runs by the edge of grazing fence, brings us on a wide cart track, on which we continue an ascent. Cart track higher quite few times crosses a forest road, and we always follow it in the direction of the mountain pasture Klek and mountain pasture Meja dolina. After a time cart track brings us to bigger clearing, on which already growing young spruces. Here, the footpath among spruces almost entirely vanishes, but already after few minutes of breaking through young forest, we will soon step on a cart track which we then follow to a nearby road.
When we step on the road, we follow it sharp to the right (direction Klek, Lipanca), and we walk there only few 10 meters, after that on a smaller clearing signs for Klek point us to the left on a quite overgrown footpath (on this part there is quite a lot of uncutted fallen trees). Higher marked path returns on the road, and we continue there to the spot, where blazes point us slightly right on rough forest cart track. On cart track we are ascending few 10 strides, after that marked path turns to the left, where it is then moderately ascending through the forest. Higher, we again cross the road, and occasionally poorly visible footpath, past memorial plates NOB brings us by the edge of abandoned mountain pasture Meja dolina.
We continue on a marked path, which on the left side bypasses the mentioned mountain pasture and higher again crosses a forest road. The path ahead starts ascending steeply, and then when we once again cross the road, gradually flattens and it brings us to a smaller parking lot near the mountain pasture Klek. Here we follow the road to the right, and after few steps, we notice hiking signposts, which point us to the left on a marked footpath. Next, we ascend past a watering-place for animals and a moderately steep path quickly brings us to shepherd huts on the mountain pasture Klek.
