Access to starting point:
We drive from Kranjska Gora over mountain pass Vršič towards Bovec or vice versa, but only to 50th hairpin turn of Vršič road or Ruska cesta (near the village Trenta). Here we turn on a side road, by which we after few 100 meters park on a parking lot by the road.
Path description:
From the parking lot, we continue on the road, and which past few houses (mainly holiday cottages) in approximately 15 minutes brings us to the spot, where the road splits into two parts (by the crossroad used to be a parking lot, today it is forbidden to park).
We continue on the bottom right road (on the upper road we get to a cargo cableway, which runs on Pogačnikov dom) in the direction of Dolič, Luknja and Prehodavci. At first, a gentle road which leads us through scenic meadows, higher through the forest, we follow almost to its end, or more precisely to a marked crossing, where a marked footpath towards Prehodavci branches off to the right (to here we need approximately 1 hour).
From a crossing at an area named Utro we continue straight, the road here finally changes into a footpath or mule track. We continue the ascent on an old mule track, which is further moderately ascending over occasionally steeper slopes. Further, climbing path over Komar soon branches off to the right, and we go straight and we still continue the ascent on a wide path. Panoramic path, which occasionally runs over very steep slopes, higher brings us to the next marked crossing.
From the crossing, we go right (left Luknja and Triglav over Plemenice) and we continue in the direction of the mountain hut Koča na Doliču. Still a wide path further starts ascending towards the south and crosses slopes of Vrh Zelenic (2468 meters). When the slope flattens a little from the right joins the path over Komar, and we follow the mule track to the next crossing, where the path towards the mountain hut Zasavska koča branches off to the right (path Pot Mire Marko Debelakove over Kanjavčeve police).
Here we continue left and more panoramic and occasionally precipitous path brings us to a crossing near the mountain hut Koča na Doliču.
From the crossing near the mountain hut Koča na Doliču we go left towards the west and we continue the ascent on a mule track, which is relatively steeply ascending. After a half an hour of walking from the mountain hut terrain flattens and the path doesn't gain altitude anymore. Now in front of us, we clearly see Triglav. Further, we walk in the direction of Triglav on karst terrain, where caution is needed, that we don't step into some hole and twist a leg. Further, we come to a crossing, where the path from Plemenice joins.
Here we continue left on an unmarked path (right Triglav), which we follow 10 minutes to Morbegna. From Morbegna to the top we only have few ten strides of walking on easy pathless terrain.
