Path description:
From the settlement Plave we continue on the asphalt road in the direction of Paljevo. The path at first leads past few houses, and then it quickly brings us to the left hairpin turn, where on a smaller building there is NOB monument. We continue on quite a panoramic road, and past the bench it brings us to the right hairpin turn, where in the direction of straight continues a footpath on Prižnica (survey point 383), and we continue right, further on the road. Further, we for some time cross the slopes towards the right, and then a little after the crossing of a torrent stream in a zig zag road turns sharply left. From the road, on which we still walk a nice view opens up towards Korada and Prižnica. And when the road from slopes almost passes on more plain terrain, on the right side we notice a cart track and next to it unofficial signs for Kuk (signs for Kuk are made with a spray).
The path ahead runs through the forest, and it leads us past several crossings, where we follow the signs for Kuk or dots on the trees. On parts a little more overgrown path, which is for most of the time moderately ascending, higher entirely flattens, and then it gradually turns a little to the right, where it starts ascending steeper and steeper. Next follows few minutes of a steep ascent, and then the path brings us below the forested ridge, where we continue towards the left. Follows few minutes of easy walking, which runs right below the ridge and then the path brings us out of the forest on panoramic airfield of Kuk, where there is also a smaller cottage.
Further a better beaten path goes left from the cottage and continues diagonally below the summit of Kuk. At the spot, where we get very close to the summit, we leave the footpath and in a minute of additional walking, we ascend on a forested Kuk.
Because the peak is in the forest majority of hikers for the destination chooses the nearby viewpoint.
