Path description:
From the parking lot near the mountain hut on Goška Ravan we first walk to the mountain hut, and behind it we descend to a macadam road which we follow to the left (right we would return to the road on which we came). The path ahead crosses a grazing fence, and only a little after that the path splits.
We continue right and on a cart track we start ascending diagonally, and during the ascent when we look back, beautiful views are opening up. When the cart track flattens, we continue on the right path to which also a signpost for Ribenska planina points us to, and gradually we start ascending steeper. Higher, the cart track flattens and it brings us to a macadam road which we only cross and we continue on a cart track in the direction of Ribenska planina (left on the road we can return to Goška Ravan, straight - the road which continues towards the western part of Jelovica, right - a road or cart track which brings us on the eastern edge of the mountain pasture Grofova planina).
A wide cart track at first leads parallel with the road, and then it gradually start lightly descending towards Ribenska planina, which we reach after few minutes of additional walking.
