Access to starting point:
From highway Ljubljana - Jesenice we go to the exit Ljubelj. From this road before the gas station, we turn right in Tržič. The road then quickly brings us in Tržič, and we follow it further in the direction of village Jelendol and Medvodje. In the village Medvodje we turn left towards Košuta on the forest road which we follow to a crossroad at Košutnik (house) approximately at 1000m. Here we go right and we drive to the parking lot at a smaller quarry.
Path description:
From the parking lot, we go on a cart track which branches off left from the road. Cart track goes into the forest and is moderately ascending, and in doing so at first crosses smaller and then bigger stream. Cart track, which has some shortcuts makes some turns and after good 15 minutes brings us on the mountain pasture Spodnja Dolga njiva.
After a short walk on the mountain pasture path brings us to a crossing, where there are signposts. We go right in the direction of the path Košutnikov turn eastern approach. A gently sloping path after few ten strides of walking, it brings us to shepherd cottages on the mountain pasture Spodnja Dolga njiva.
Further, we continue on the mountain pasture upwards in the middle of which runs a wide cart track which after good 15 minutes of walking, it brings us out of the forest on the mountain pasture Zgornja Dolga njiva.
The steepness of the path which was until now moderate decreases and the path on a nice grassy terrain soon brings us on the main part of the mountain pasture, where the blazes end. We continue on a slightly ascending path which runs by a smaller, but very distinct torrent ditch. A little further unmarked path splits into two parts.
We continue slightly right (left Tolsta Košuta) on the path which a little further ascends on the border ridge. Ridge a little further turns left, and the path at first descends from the secondary peak, and then on and by the ridge in few minutes of panoramic walking it brings us to the summit of Mala Košuta.
The orientation is difficult in the fog.
