Molnarjev breg - Planjava pri Kamniškem vrhu (via planina Osredek)

Access to starting point:
A) From highway Ljubljana - Jesenice we go to the exit Vodice, and then we continue driving to a first traffic light crossroad in Vodice, where we continue left in the direction of Cerklje na Gorenjskem and Brnik. When we get to the main roundabout in Spodnji Brnik we continue driving in the direction of Cerklje and ski slope Krvavec. At the end of the settlement Cerklje na Gorenjskem we leave the main road which continues towards Velesovo and Visoko and we continue driving slightly right on a road in the direction of the ski slope Krvavec. Further, we get to the village Grad, where signs for settlement Ambrož pod Krvavcem point us to the right on a steep asphalt road (straight bottom station of the cable car on Krvavec and Štefanja Gora). When the steepness on a steep road decreases a little, we will get to a crossroad, where we continue left in the direction of the settlement Ambrož pod Krvavcem (straight settlement Ravne, Apno and Šenturška Gora). A little further, the road for some time descends a little and then it is ascending through occasionally quite panoramic slopes. Higher, we get to Ambrož pod Krvavcem, where on the left side we bypass church of St. Ambrož and tourist farm Pr Ambružarju. From the tourist farm ahead road passes into the forest and relatively steeply ascends diagonally. When we get to left zig zag, we are at the starting point, where on an appropriate place, at the smaller crossroad we park.
B) From highway Jesenice - Ljubljana we go to the exit Kranj - east, and then we continue driving towards Brnik, Komenda and Mengeš. When we get to the main roundabout in Spodnji Brnik we continue driving in the direction of Cerklje and ski slope Krvavec. At the end of the settlement Cerklje na Gorenjskem we leave the main road which continues towards Velesovo and Visoko and we continue driving slightly right on a road in the direction of the ski slope Krvavec. Further, we get to the village Grad, where signs for settlement Ambrož pod Krvavcem point us to the right on a steep asphalt road (straight bottom station of the cable car on Krvavec and Štefanja Gora). When the steepness on a steep road decreases a little, we will get to a crossroad, where we continue left in the direction of the settlement Ambrož pod Krvavcem (straight settlement Ravne, Apno and Šenturška Gora).

Higher, we get to Ambrož pod Krvavcem, where on the left side we bypass church of St. Ambrož and tourist farm Pr Ambružarju. From the tourist farm ahead road passes into the forest and relatively steeply ascends diagonally.

Path description:
From the starting point, we go on the forest road which crosses slopes of Molnarjev breg. We are slightly ascending on the road, and then we get to a smaller crossing, where we continue slightly left on the upper road (bottom road or cart track soon ends), by which we also notice blazes. Next follows few minutes of a diagonal ascent, on the road from which occasionally a view opens up. A little further, the road again splits, and we again choose the left upper road, and from there only few 10 strides ahead steep cart track branches off to the left. We continue on the road, on which we walk to the a turn.
From the turn we continue straight on a marked footpath which diagonally continues through the forest. In the forest, we quickly get to a marked crossing, where we continue right downwards in the direction of the mountain pasture Osredek and Kamniški vrh (upper path leads on Kamniški vrh and bypasses the mountain pasture Osredek, possible is also continuation towards Kriška planina). Next follows a little steeper descent, and then we cross the road which we recently left and we still continue the descent. Lower in the forest, the path turns left and flattens. Next follows few minutes of a crossing, and then we get out of the forest on the mountain pasture Osredek, where there stand few wooden cottages.
From the shepherd huts on the mountain pasture, we continue towards the east, where we soon get to the eastern edge of the mountain pasture, where from the right side join a marked path from the village Slevo and unmarked path which leads by waterfalls Korošaški slapovi.
We continue in the forest and we start ascending over at first quite steep slope. Higher, we reach the ridge, where from the left joins the path which bypasses the mountain pasture Osredek.
We continue right (left our starting point and Kriška planina) on the path which runs on the northern side of the ridge. After a shorter crossing, marked path gets very close to the ridge and on this part, we leave it and in few steps we ascend on the ridge (slightly left marked path which leads on Kamniški vrh).
Next follows few minutes of ascent, on the path which continues on a more and more panoramic ridge of Planjava and we already reach partly grassy peak.
