Ravne - Rušni vrh (via Planina za Črno goro)

Access to starting point:
A) From highway Ljubljana - Jesenice we go to the exit Lesce and follow the road towards Bled and forward towards Bohinjska Bistrica. From Bohinjska Bistrica we continue left in the direction of Tolmin and Soriška planina. Soon we will notice by the road signposts for Črna prst, which point towards the right, but we continue straight. Only a little later we come to a crossroad, where a signpost point us to slightly right towards the village Ravne. Further, we drive past a large parking lot by the former ski slope Kobla, and the asphalt road which starts ascending steeply we follow to Ravne, where the road flattens. Here we continue to drive all the way to the spot, where the asphalt ends. At the spot, where the asphalt ends is a larger parking lot by inn Janez, where we park on the right side of the parking lot, (parking lot on the left side of the road is intended for guests of the inn Janez).
B) From Železniki or Petrovo Brdo we drive to Bohinjska Bistrica, where before the center of the settlement, we turn left in the direction of the settlement Ravne. The road which starts ascending steeply we follow to Ravne, where the road flattens. Here we continue to drive all the way to the spot, where the asphalt ends. At the spot, where the asphalt ends is a larger parking lot by inn Janez, where we park on the right side of the parking lot, (parking lot on the left side of the road is intended for guests of the inn Janez).

Path description:
From the parking lot at the inn Janez we continue in the direction of Črna prst and mountain hut Orožnova koča, where at first we walk on a macadam road, from which a beautiful view opens up towards Triglav. The road after the initial ascent passes into the forest and turns a little to the left, where we quickly get to a marked crossing.
From the crossing, we continue left in the direction of Črna prsta, mountain pasture Planina za Črno goro and mountain hut Orožnova koča (straight Bohinjska Bistrica and old path towards Orožnova koča). The path ahead on the right side bypasses a privat house (used to be mountain hut Planinski dom dr. Janeza Mencingerja), after that a little ahead it joins a cart track, on which we continue to ascend. A little higher, at the crossing we continue right, and then the path continues through the forest. Even a little further, the path leads past a log cabin and a cross, and then we already get to a marked crossing, where we continue left (right mountain hut Orožnova koča).
Further, the cart track changes into a footpath, and a little higher it brings us to a forest road which we follow to the right. Few strides we walk on the road, and then signs for Črna prst point us to the left on a steep footpath. We continue the ascent on at first relatively steep path, which further leads past a man made ditches, which were intended for drainage of water (ditch was built to prevent ingression of water into Bohinj tunnel). Higher, the footpath for some time entirely flattens, and then it moderately ascends to the mountain pasture Za Črno goro.
When we step on the mountain pasture, the marked path turns to the left and then through a ditch semicircular bypasses the mountain pasture. On the other side of the mountain pasture, we continue left and start moderately ascending through at first a thin forest. After few minutes of additional walking the footpath passes into the forest, and it brings us to a marked crossing, where we continue sharply right in the direction of Črna prst (straight Kobla, Soriška planina, Porezen...).
Higher, the footpath makes few long zig-zags, after that from a thinner forest or lane of bushes brings us to the scree below Rušni vrh. Here the path for some time flattens, and then on the other side of the scree starts ascending steeply on grassy groove below the ridge of Home. On this part in the late spring there is increased danger of falling stones. Higher, the groove ends, and the path crosses a short steep slope, where in the early summer snow fields are still possible. Above the steep part we join the path from the mountain hut Orožnova koča, and only a few meters higher we step on the ridge, which we reach on the saddle Čez Suho.
On the mentioned saddle we leave the marked path and continue left on an unmarked footpath which ascends on the ridge of Rušni vrh. The steepness quickly decreases and a more panoramic path after 5 minutes of walking from the spot, when we left blazes brings us on a little visited peak.
