Access to starting point:
First, we drive to Bovec, and then we continue driving towards Čezsoča. In Čezsoča, at the inn Vančar we continue left in the direction of Jablenca and valley Dolina škratov and we follow a narrow asphalted road past the pool Slatenik to a little bigger crossroad, where we continue slightly right (straight Jablenca). The road which ahead loses an asphalt covering starts ascending steeper, at the crossroads we follow it in the direction of the summit Javoršček. This at first nice, and then worse forest road we follow to a sharp left turn by which we also park (we can also park earlier on one of the parking lots by the road).
Path description:
We continue on the forest road towards the east and we soon come to a crossing, where right upwards marked footpath (Brda - B7a) branches off. We still walk on the road which crosses a larger rockfall. The road then soon ends and we continue on a footpath which quickly becomes very overgrown and it is almost impossible to follow it. If we can't follow the footpath we just continue on pathless terrain, so that we in ascent cross a slope towards the east. When we come on steeper slopes path becomes again better visible. After that, the path starts with the help of fixed safety gear crossing pretty steep slopes. Later, the path few more times ascends by the steel cable and crosses exposed slope with the help of an iron ladder. On this part quite some caution is needed because the slope which we cross is steep, and the path poorly beaten. Also fixed safety gear are not always in the best condition. Further, the path becomes less demanding and is marked with a little faded red dots and some cairns. Despite the blazes we have to be on some spots very careful, not to go astray from the path. The footpath which all the time runs through the forest then brings us to abandoned forestry cottage, where we join the normal marked path.
From the cottage, we are then mostly ascending through the forest on a military mule track. The path leads us also past some clearings where a nice view opens up on surrounding peaks, and a little from the path there is also a military cemetery. The path through the forest then leads us past the mountain pasture Golobar and it brings us to a saddle Čez Utro. Here nice views open up on surrounding peaks, and on a saddle there is also a monument of the fallen partisans.
From the saddle, we continue straight and after few ten meters, the path brings us to a crossing. We continue on a footpath right upwards, left leads the path towards Čezsoča and Drežnica.
From the crossing ahead, the path isn't marked anymore, but it is enough beaten, that we can follow it without problems. Further, the path runs mostly on the northern side of the mountain and few times crosses relatively steep slopes. In the last part, the path brings us out of the forest and only a short ascent follows to a panoramic summit.
On the way: Planina Golobar (1257m), Čez Utro (1305m)
