Mangartsko sedlo - Mangart (Slovenian way)

Access to starting point:
A) First, we drive to Kranjska Gora, and then we continue driving through the border crossing Rateče into Italy. We drive towards Trbiž / Tarvisio, and then at the beginning of the mentioned town, we turn left in the direction of Bovec. Further, we drive on a regional road towards the border crossing Predel, and only a little after the mentioned border crossing (so, when we are already on the Slovenian side) we turn left in the direction of saddle Mangartsko sedlo. Further, we drive on in parts narrow and zig zag road (road also has some tunnels), and we are driving there to a saddle Mangartsko sedlo, where on a parking lot at 2050 meters above the sea level we also park. The road is payable.
B) First, we drive to Bovec, and then we continue driving towards the border crossing Predel. Only few 100 meters before the mentioned border crossing, more precisely after the viaduct, we turn right in the direction of saddle Mangartsko sedlo. Further, we drive on in parts narrow and zig zag road (road also has some tunnels), and we are driving there to a saddle Mangartsko sedlo, where on a parking lot at 2050 meters above the sea level we also park. The road is payable.

Path description:
From the parking lot, we at first walk to a saddle Mangartsko sedlo, from where we continue right towards the east and we continue on a scenic grassy ridge. After few minutes of easy walking path ascends a little steeper and on the right south side bypasses the nearby Travnik (2200 meters). From here ahead the path becomes a little steeper, and after approximately 30 minutes of walking from the starting point it brings us to a crossing, where the path splits into two parts; left Italian and right Slovenian path.
We continue on the right Slovenian path, and which in a gentle descent crosses nearby scree and it brings us to the beginning of the climbing part of the path.
Here because of a danger of falling stones we put on a helmet.
The path ahead immediately steeply ascends, at the ascent, we get help from iron spikes and steel cables. Higher, the path for some time flattens and passes on a carved ledge, behind which we cross to falling stones exposed gully (this part of the path is well secured). On the other side of the gully, the path is still steeply ascending, and on harder spots we also have to use hands. We continue on and by a wide gully straight upwards, at the ascent path occasionally runs above deep precipices. Higher, the path turns a little towards the left and gradually becomes less demanding. When in front of us we notice a cross, to the top separates us only few 10 strides of easy walking.
We can descend on a little easier Italian path.
