Access to starting point:
At first, we drive to Škofja Loka, and then we continue driving towards Železniki. In Železniki we continue right in the direction of Dražgoše, and we follow the main road to the village Rudno, where signs for Bohinjska Bistrica point us on a narrower road which ascends through the village. Behind the village, the road widen, and loses an asphalt covering. Further, we drive on a relatively nice and ascending macadam road which we follow approximately 10 km, or to the spot, where signs for Ratitovec point us to the left on a little narrower macadam road. Further, we drive to the next crossroad by which on an appropriate place we also park (by the starting point, there is a signpost for Ratitovec and information board Natura 2000 area).
Path description:
From the crossroad, by which we parked at, we go on a road in the direction of Ratitovec, and in few steps we get to a gate, which is preventing further driving. The road ahead is ascending gently, and on the right side bypasses marsh Ledina on Jelovica. A little further, the road entirely flattens, and blazes point us to the right on a gently sloping cart track which only a little further crosses a wider cart track. We continue in the direction of Ratitovec and we continue on a gently sloping cart track which higher brings us on an indistinct ridge, where the path turns quite to the right. Next follows few minutes of steeper walking, and then the path brings us to a forest road which leads from Prtovč towards Mrzla dolina on Jelovica. The mentioned road, we only cross and we continue the ascent on a wide cart track which soon very steeply ascends, and then it flattens and in few minutes of additional walking brings us to a marked crossing.
We continue right in the direction of the mountain pasture Klom (left Kosmati vrh) and we continue the ascent on the path, or cart track which higher quite few times crosses newly built road which leads to the mountain pasture Klom. Because of the new road there's quite a few crossings, so we have to be careful on all crossing, that we don't miss the marked path. The path higher flattens, after that in short descent brings us to the mountain pasture Klom, on which stands a shepherd hut.
From the mountain pasture, we continue on a marked path, which at first moderately ascends, and then turns to the left and gradually flattens. For a short time, we continue on a wide rocky cart track, immediately after we cross a grazing fence, we continue right downwards, where we quickly get to an old military bunker. Next follows a short gentle ascent and the path brings us to a marked crossing, where we continue straight in the direction of Gladki vrh (left downwards cirque Razor, right downwards mountain pasture Pečana. The path immediately after the crossing splits into two parts, and we continue on the left marked (right is unmarked and less steep), which starts ascending steeply on northeastern ridge of Gladki vrh. The path ahead quickly brings us out of the forest, and with increasingly beautiful views it brings us on Gladki vrh.
