Access to starting point:
A) From highway Ljubljana - Jesenice we go to the exit Lesce and we follow the road towards Bled, Bohinjska Bistrica, Ribčev Laz and ski center Vogel. The path starts at a large settled parking lot at the bottom station of the cableway on Vogel.
B) From Primorska we at first drive to Bohinjska Bistrica, and then we follow the signs for Lake Bohinj and Vogel. The path starts at the parking lot at the bottom station of the cable car on Vogel.
Path description:
Below bottom station of the cableway on Vogel we notice a forest road (in the winter time ski track), which starts moderately ascending towards the west. The path ahead is for some time gently to moderately ascending, and then it brings us out of the forest on a panoramic slope, from where a beautiful view opens up on Komarča, Pršivec and Lake Bohinj.
After that the road starts turning more and more to the left and is becoming steeper and steeper. Higher, we continue on a relatively steep ski track, on which all the time leads worse and gravel transport road. After a time the road or ski track for some time flattens, and then it again steeply ascends and it brings us to a marked crossing, where we continue left in the direction of Ski hotel on Vogel (straight bottom station of two-seater chairlift Zadnji Vogel).
Only a little further, we get to the next crossing, where we continue right towards the mountain pasture Zadnji Vogel (slightly left Ski hotel on Vogel and mountain hut Planinska koča Merjasec). On ski track we walk a little less than 10 minutes and the path brings us to cheese cottage on the mountain pasture Zadnji Vogel.
We continue past the cheese cottage and follow the signs for Komna (to the left the path branches off on Vogel). The path then through dwarf pines it brings us into the forest and starts descending a little. After some time a quite an overgrown path branches off to the right towards the valley (the path through Žagarjev graben, by the path there are old blazes), and we moderately ascend to a marked crossing.
We continue straight in the direction of Komna (left - saddle Globoko), where after few minutes of additional ascent, we reach plateau terrain south from Konjski vrh (1558 meters), and from there on a pleasant footpath we descend towards a smaller valley, where on the left we notice an interesting swamp, which in heavy rainfall changes into a small lake. We few minutes continue through a small valley, and at the indistinct gable, the path turns a little to the left and it ascends on the slope of Rušnati vrh or Meja. Still before the slope becomes steeper, the path turns sharply to the right, and then it is ascending diagonally all the way to the saddle Konjsko sedlo, which we reach with nice views on Bohinjski Migovec (1896 meters) and neighbouring Konjski vrh (1739 meters).
From the saddle Konjsko sedlo, which is situated below the peak of almost 2000 meters high Meja, we start descending diagonally in the direction of Komna (sharply left - Vogel and saddle Globoko), and the path leads on the scree of Bohinjski Migovec. Lower, we get to more flat terrain, and we are still mostly descending, and during the descent we are accompanied by wonderful views on Julian Alps. Lower, the path leads us past a viewpoint, which is from the path distant less than a minute and from which a nice view opens up on Lake Bohinj. Next follows few minutes of descent and we get to a crossing, from which we continue sharply right towards Komna (straight - Škrbina).
From the crossing, we descend a little more and we get to the main part of indistinct mountain pasture Planina za Migovcem.
We continue in the direction of Komna, and further we on the right side bypass the nearby and mostly dwarf pined Mohor. We at first walk without large changes in altitude, and then we start descending diagonally, and from the path a nice view opens up on Lake Bohinj. When we again start ascending from the right side almost unnoticeably joins also the unmarked path via Ražnova Suha. We continue on a marked path, and there we quickly ascend to the saddle between Mohor on the left and Mali vrh on the right, where we cross a grazing fence. Next follows a moderate descent towards frost hollow Krošnja, which the path bypasses on the right side. Next follows few minutes of easy walking and we get to a marked crossing, from which we continue right upward (straight mountain pasture Govnjač and Dom na Komni over the mentioned mountain pasture).
From the crossing follows few minutes of ascent, and then some more descent. Lower path flattens and from the left joins the path which leads over mountain pasture Govnjač.
We continue in the direction of the mountain hut Dom na Komni, which we reach after few minutes of additional walking.
