Access to starting point:
From the road Bovec - border crossing Predel we drive on the road in the direction of Mangartsko sedlo, and there we drive to a marked parking lot before Mangartska planina, where we park.
Path description:
From the parking lot by the edge of the mountain pasture Mangartska planina we go straight and we continue on the asphalt road which leads towards the saddle Mangartsko sedlo. On the asphalt road, we walk two hairpin turns, after that on one of the concrete pillars we notice an arrow, which points us right on a poorly visible footpath, on which in few minutes of ascent we reach northwestern ridge of Planja, where the footpath becomes easier to follow. We follow the footpath to the right, and there we are at first gently, and then moderately ascending. After few minutes ridge becomes quite steep, and the path leads us a little left, above steep slopes, steeply upwards. Next follows few minutes of quite steep ascent, where mainly in wet is dangerous for slipping. Next follows an ascent through dwarf pines, where the footpath is easy to follow, and then we reach the upper ridge, where the steepness decreases. Next follows few minutes of less steep path which still continues through dwarf pines, and with nice views, which most often stop at mighty Mangart, we reach indistinct peak, which is overgrown with dwarf pines.
