A pleasant path continues by stream Jezerski potok and in a gentle to moderate ascent leads past some stronger karst springs. Higher, we get to a crossing at smaller dam of the lake Spodnje Mangartsko jezero, where we continue right and in a minute or two of additional walking, we get to the nearby snack bar, from where there is a nice view towards Mangart.
