Access to starting point:
From highway Rupa - Rijeka or Zagreb - Rijeka we drive towards Rijeka, and from there we follow the signs for island Krk. When the highway ends, we descend to Krk Bridge. On island Krk we then follow the signs for island Cres and Lošinj and ferry port Valbiska. At the mentioned port we then go with the ferry to the settlement Merag on island Cres (126 kunas – July 2020). On island Cres we then follow the signs for Mali Lošinj all the way to the settlement Osor where over a short swing bridge we reach island Lošinj. Immediately after the bridge we turn right and we park on a smaller parking lot. The mentioned parking lot is often occupied, but we can park already on a large parking lot, which is situated at the roundabout in the settlement Osor approximately 300 meters before the bridge.
Path description:
Immediately behind the bridge, which connects island Cres and Lošinj we go on an ascending road through the camp Preko mosta. At the beginning of the mentioned road we will also notice blazes. After a short ascent the camp ends, and we still continue on the road which further becomes a macadam. By the road there are also blazes and a big signpost with the caption »Osoršćica«.
We continue on the macadam road and we soon get to a marked crossing where the path branches off to the left towards abandoned village Tržić to which there is approximately 20 minutes of walking. We short time still continue on the road, and then signpost for mountain hut and the peak Televrina points us left into the forest.
Further, the path runs mostly through a low forest by the stone fence. To the right then the path branches off towards Mali Tržić, and we continue straight and follow the signs for the mountain hut (planinarski dom). The path then ascends a little and it brings us to a marked crossing.
From the left joins the path from the settlement Nerezine via Tržić, sharply right downwards leads the path to the road, and we continue slightly right and follow the signs for the mountain hut and the peak Televrina. From the crossing a not very steep path runs towards the west and after approximately 15 minutes brings us to the next marked crossing. Here to the left a more direct path branches off towards the summit Televrina, and we continue right towards the mountain hut.
Further, the path twice for a short time joins the road, and then it again runs on a footpath through the low forest and bushes. The path then brings us into a little more dense forest, where there is also a bench and a nice place to rest.
Further, the forest is becoming thinner and also nice views start opening up towards the sea. After that, the footpath once again crosses the road and is then for some time ascending by bushes and low trees. Such a path then soon brings us to the mountain hut from where a very nice view opens up also towards the west.
