Tržič - Lešanska planina

Access to starting point:
From the Ljubljana - Jesenice highway, take the Ljubelj (Tržič) exit, then before the gas station in Bistrica pri Tržiču turn right downhill, where we quickly arrive in Tržič. At the intersection after the Mercator store, turn left towards the Tržič Museum, but we continue straight along Koroška cesta, which we follow through the town center to house number 48. Here at the smaller intersection, turn left onto Pot na pilarno; the road from here onwards starts descending towards the Mošenik stream. When we reach the stream, cross the bridge and then park in a suitable spot (because most parking spaces are reserved for residents, we may have quite some trouble finding a suitable space).

Path description:
From the spot where we crossed the bridge, we continue along Tržiška Bistrica for approximately 100 m, then, when we spot the smaller dam on the mentioned river, we continue sharply left onto the ascending road, which we follow to the mountain signposts for Dobrča. We continue in the direction of Dobrča and continue the path on the road which higher over a bridge crosses the main road that leads to Ljubelj. The road continues parallel to the main road for a short time, then turns left and moderately ascends to a smaller hamlet. Just before the last house, the blazes direct us slightly left onto a footpath, which soon turns right and ascends transversely along the edge of the forest. The path then enters a dense forest, where it crosses a short steeper slope. After a short ascent, we step onto a larger clearing, on the edge of which stands a lonely cottage. Here we continue right and continue the ascent on the forest path, which higher crosses a forest road. The path ahead starts to ascend steeply, then temporarily levels out and brings us to a steep cart track, on which we continue the ascent. Higher, some views open up from the path towards Košuta, Storžič and Kriška gora, and we continue further on the marked cart track, which soon brings us to the hunting cottage, where we also step onto the road.
The marked path bypasses the hunting cottage by a few 10 m to the left, and we walk on the road only a short time, as the blazes then direct us slightly left onto the path, which starts moderately ascending through the forest. The path ahead steeply ascends for a short time, then slightly levels out and continues in a transverse ascent over occasionally partly panoramic slopes. Higher, the path first levels out, then descends to the nearby forest road, which we follow to the right. This is followed by a few minutes' walk on the mentioned road, then we arrive out of the forest, where we step onto the expansive Bistriška planina.
On the left side of the pasture we step onto a wider road, which we follow in the direction of Dobrča and Lešanska planina. The road ahead moderately ascends through the forest, then brings us to Breška planina, where a hunting cottage stands.
We continue on the road, which returns into the forest, and it gradually starts ascending more steeply. Higher we come to a marked junction, where a marked footpath from Brezje pri Tržiču joins from the left, and we continue sharply right on the gradually increasingly steep cart track. This is followed by approximately 20 minutes of walking on the mentioned cart track, then the path brings us out of the forest to the lower part of Lešanska planina. We continue upwards across the pasture, where we soon arrive at the shepherd's hut on the mentioned pasture.
