Planina Blato - Koča na Planini pri Jezeru (steep path)

Access to starting point:
From highway Ljubljana - Jesenice we go to the exit Lesce and follow the road towards Bled and forward towards Bohinjska Bistrica. We continue driving towards the Lake Bohinj (Ribčev laz), where we come to the crossroad, where we continue right in the direction of Stara Fužina. In Stara Fužina at the crossroad at the chapel, we turn sharply left on an ascending road in the direction of the mountain pasture Blato, mountain pasture Vogar and valley Voje. The road ahead brings us to the spot, where the road toll or parking fee has to be paid, we follow it forward to the next crossroad, where we continue left (right Voje). Then we follow the road to the next crossroad (we drive for quite some time), where we turn sharply right in the direction of the mountain pasture Blato (straight mountain pasture Vogar). We follow this road to the parking lot above the mountain pasture Planina Blato.

Path description:
From the marked parking lot on the mountain pasture Blato we return few 10 strides back, and then we go on a wide and at first also quite a steep cart track in the direction of Planina at Jezeru. After 10 minutes of relatively steep ascent, we come at the marked crossing, where we continue on the right less steep cart track in the direction of the mountain pasture Planina v Lazu (left Planina pri Jezeru). After few minutes of additional walking, cart track splits into two parts, and we continue slightly left in the direction of the mountain pasture Planina pri Jezeru (slightly right Planina v Lazu). Further, we for some time continue on a gentle cart track, and then faded blazes point us to the left on a gradually increasingly steep footpath. The path ahead is steeply ascending through the forest and is higher turning more and more towards the left. After a good 30 minutes of walking from the starting point, we join the normal cart track which we follow to the right. Only a little further, the path turns sharply to the left and it brings us in a cold small valley named Pungrat, where we cross an abandoned grazing fence. The path ahead again starts ascending steeper, and then turns to the right and entirely flattens. Only few meters ahead from the left joins the path from the mountain pasture Vodični vrh, and we continue straight and after 5 minutes of additional walking, we get to the mountain pasture Planina pri Jezeru, in the middle of which stands a mountain hut.
