Access to starting point:
From Tolmin we drive towards Kobarid or vice versa, but only to a spot, where signs for Kamno point us to the right (from the direction Kobarid left) over a bridge. A relatively narrow and ascending road we then follow in the direction of village Vrsno and higher Krn. From the village Krn we continue in the direction of the mountain hut Koča na planini Kuhinja. When we get to a large parking lot, where slightly left the road continues towards the mountain hut Koča na planini Kuhinja, we park on a large parking lot.
Path description:
From the parking lot, we go on the left bottom road in the direction of the mountain hut Koča na planini Kuhinja. The path at first leads on the road which crosses a lane of thin forest and then splits into two parts.
The right path bypasses the mountain hut Koča na planini Kuhinja and is a little shorter, and left which continues on the road leads past the already mentioned mountain hut.
A little above the mountain hut both paths join again, and we continue the ascent on a gently sloping path in the direction of Krn. The path ahead is at first gently, after that occasionally more steeply ascending on grassy slopes, which are fenced with grazing fences. The path which few times crosses a bad mountain road after approximately 40 minutes of walking, it brings us to an old military hamlet on the mountain pasture Slapnik. The path ahead few more times crosses a road, after that joins the path from the end of the road (mountain pasture Zaslap). The path then in a moderate ascent on grassy slopes crosses a little to the right, and then again to the left to an unmarked crossing on an area named Leger. We continue right upward (straight normal path on Krn) on a poorly visible but marked footpath which is at first ascending parallel with usual path on Krn. A little higher wide but quite an overgrown path in a moderate ascent crosses slopes of Krn towards the east. Nice panoramic path then brings us below the notch Krnska škrbina. Next follows ten minutes of a steep ascent on a rocky slope to the notch Krnska škrbina, where we run into remains of world war. Here we continue on the right path in the direction of Batognica (left Krn, straight downwards lake Krnsko jezero), which becomes technically demanding. The path on an exposed path with the help of stairs runs on precipitous southern slopes of Batognica. In wet or snow serious risk of slip. Few meters below the summit, the path flattens and without any bigger problems brings us to the top.
