Rudno polje - Viševnik (via source of Zlata voda)

Access to starting point:
From highway Ljubljana - Jesenice we go to the exit Lesce and follow the road ahead towards Bled. In Bled at the traffic lights, the signs for Pokljuka point us to the right. Ahead we drive through Gorje and past the abandoned ski slope Zatrnik to Rudno polje on Pokljuka (large parking lot, barracks and shooting range).

Path description:
From a large parking lot opposite the barracks on Rudno polje at first we cross the road, and then we look for the beginning of the forest road (by the beginning of the forest road are also signs for Triglav), which leads towards the ski slope Viševnik. After approximately 10 minutes of walking on the mentioned road we get to the foot ski slope, where the marked path splits into two parts. The right path leads towards Viševnik and mountain hut Blejska koča na Lipanci, and for a short time, we still continue on the road in the direction of Triglav, mountain hut Vodnikov dom na Velem polju and Studorski preval. When the road returns into the forest, we will on the left notice a marked footpath which starts gently and higher moderately ascending through the forest. After few minutes, we step back on the road which we reach on medium-sized parking lot, where there is enough space for about 20 cars (to here it is possible also with a car, this shortens the path for approximately 20 minutes).
When we reach the parking lot, few 10 meters we walk on the road, and then signs lead slightly right on a marked and well-beaten path which starts ascending through the forest. After few minutes, the path flattens and gradually passes on a relatively steep southern slopes of Plesišče (1790 meters). Next follows few minutes of crossing, and then we step on some kind of broad ridge of the before mentioned summit. Here the marked path turns right (straight downwards leads unmarked, but well-beaten path towards Planina Konjščica) and descends a little.
From the broad ridge we follow the marked path only to a crossing of the first torrent. At the torrent we leave the marked path and we continue the ascent right by a torrent, at first straight upwards. We soon notice traces of predecessors, few more strides and higher we see easy to follow footpath (to here possible also on the path which from the before mentioned broad ridge branches off in the forest (beginning of the mentioned footpath isn't visible)). Here, the footpath towards the right crosses a stream and behind it slowly semicircular turns left, where leads us through a meadow where the footpath isn't visible. When we again get closer to a small stream we again see footpath, and it crosses a stream and on the other side starts ascending diagonally. The path then ascends into a smaller valley, where again vanishes. When small valley flattens we continue right, where after few meters we again see footpath which is this time more distinct. From the point, when we left the small valley we walk only about a minute or two, and then by the path, we notice a smaller cairn, by which path splits into two parts. The left path leads towards the saddle between Viševnik and Plesišče, and the path which continues straight at Zlate vode joins the marked path Rudno polje - Viševnik.
We continue straight on the path which is further ascending diagonally on slopes of Plesišče. Higher, we reach the ridge of the mentioned summit, where for a short time, we are ascending there, and then the path turns slightly right and passes on the eastern slopes. Few minutes we are still ascending diagonally, and then we step on the pasture, where the footpath starts vanishing. We still walk in approximately same direction, where with a little luck we get right to the source of Zlata voda.
From the source we continue straight or slightly left and then in few minutes we join the marked path Rudno polje - Viševnik, which we reach between a marked crossing, where the path branches off towards Blejska koča na Lipanci and saddle between Plesišče and Viševnik. When we reach the mentioned path we continue left and then we quickly ascend on the mentioned saddle, from where a beautiful view opens up.
On the mentioned saddle we reach a marked path Rudno polje - Viševnik, and we follow it to the left. The path ahead is at first moderately, after that steeply ascending through a lane of dwarf pines. Higher dwarf pines end and the path brings us on tiny saddle, from where a nice view opens up. Further, we are ascending on steeper and panoramic grassy slope, and the path then turns a little to the right and in a diagonal ascent brings us on the ridge of Viševnik, where a nice view opens up also towards Rjavina and surrounding mountains. The path continues on and by the ridge and is then for some time only moderately ascending. After a shorter traversing, we get below the peak of Viševnik, where the path becomes pretty steep (in the winter time is this part often icy) and in few minutes brings us on a panoramic peak.
