Access to starting point:
From highway Ljubljana - Jesenice we go to the exit Ljubelj and follow the road ahead towards the border crossing. Main road we leave at the spot, where signs for »camp and Podljubelj« point us to the right. When we leave the main road, we will already after few meters come on crossroad, where we continue left in the direction of »Kofce«. Further, we drive through the village on a slightly ascending road and then we turn right in the direction of »Matizovec and Kofce«. This occasionally a little more narrow road which is in the lower part asphalt, we then follow to a larger marked parking lot, about 150 altitude meters below the farm Matizovec.
Path description:
From large free parking lot we continue on a macadam road, on which in approximately 20 minutes we get to the farm Matizovec.
From Matizovec we continue on a rough road in the direction of Dom na Kofcah, and on some successive crossings, we carefully follow the blazes. After few minutes of walking on a rough road or cart track, blazes point us on a steep footpath which at first ascends diagonally towards the left and then passes on a forested ridge, where it turns a little to the right. Further, we are ascending on a steep mountain path, which higher crosses a cart track and behind it gradually flattens. Only a little further, forest gets thinner, and marked path turns right in the forest and a little higher joins the cart track which is ascending diagonally towards the right. Cart track higher turns to the left, and from the right joins also the marked path from Kal.
From the crossing ahead forest ends, and more and more scenic path in 5 minutes of additional walking brings us to the mountain hut Dom na Kofcah.
From the mountain hut, we continue in the direction of Veliki vrh and Kladivo on at first a little poorly visible path which starts ascending through a panoramic meadow. After 15 minutes of walking from the mountain hut Dom na Kofcah we get to a nice viewpoint by the cross.
The path then slightly descends and in few minutes brings us to steeper slopes of Košuta. The path then ascends through a lane of dwarf pines, where it brings us to a crossing. We continue right (straight Veliki vrh) on the path which already after few meters joins the path without the blazes from the mountain pasture Šija. We continue left upwards on the path which ascends steeply and it quickly brings us to an exposed passage. Without fixed safety gear we cross a short, but crumbly and slightly exposed ledge after which we go in a lane of dwarf pines. The path ahead ascends through a short lane of dwarf pines, and then continues on a side ridge of Košuta. More panoramic and pretty steep path higher joins the ridge path.
We continue straight upwards on an unmarked path, which after 10 strides it brings us to the summit (left Veliki vrh, right Kladivo).
