Access to starting point:
A) From Kranjska Gora over the border crossing Rateče we drive to Trbiž / Tarvisio. In Trbiž we continue left in the direction of Bovec and we follow the road to the crossroad near the lake Rabeljsko jezero. Here we continue right in the direction of Nevejski preval / Sella Nevea. This road which is mostly ascending we follow to the bridge, where the road crosses the stream Beli potok / Rio Bianco. Only few meters behind the bridge (just before the second bridge) we will on the left side of the road notice signposts for Jerebica / Cima del Lago. Here we turn left, we slightly descend and then we park on a parking lot by extensive gravel terrain.
B) From Bovec, we drive to the border crossing Predel, from which we descend on the Italian side. Only a little after the lake Rabeljsko jezero we come to a crossroad, where we continue left in the direction of Nevejski preval / Sella Nevea. Further, we follow the description above.
Path description:
From the parking lot, we continue on a macadam road, that is gently descending over an extensive gravel terrain. After approximately 5 minutes of walking, we come to the next signposts, which point us over smaller gravel terrain in the forest. After that, the path immediately turns to the right and is insignificantly ascending by torrent's deposits of sand and stones. After few minutes of additional walking, we come to very rough cart track which we follow left upwards. Further, we are ascending on the mentioned cart track which at the left turn brings us to an unmarked crossing (a cairn is usually here).
We continue right (left on a steep cart track Jerebica) on at first poorly visible path (fallen trees), which only a short time continues on a cart track. The path ahead passes into a dense forest, where it is for a short time steeply ascending. After few minutes, the steepness decreases and the path brings us to an old military mule track, which is turning a little to the right. We continue the ascent on the mentioned mule track, from which occasionally beautiful views opening up on surroundings. Higher the forest is gradually replaced by bushes, and the path turns even more to the right and even descends a little. And after few steps of descent path turns sharply left and passes below the steep walls of Bohnica (1946 meters), where it is then ascending diagonally, on the more and more panoramic slopes. Ahead on occasionally quite an overgrown path, we quickly ascend to limestone pavement terrain, where by the path, we notice the first smaller military tunnels. Blazes higher point us a little to the left, and the path brings us on an area full of karst abysses. Because path in some parts runs exactly above the edge of abysses, it is on some spots dangerous for slipping. The path ahead for a short time steeply ascends and after few minutes of additional walking brings us to a marked crossing, which is located right next to the national border. Here we will a little to the left notice indistinct peak, on which we ascend in few steps of additional walking (path to the summit isn't marked).
