Access to starting point:
From highway Ljubljana - Jesenice we go to the exit Ljubelj and follow the road ahead in the direction of Tržič. Just before the gas station at Tržič we turn right (direction Tržič) and then immediately left (direction Begunje) and we drive further to the village Brezje pri Tržiču, where we park on an appropriate place near the church.
Path description:
From the church of St. Neža few 10 strides we continue on the road towards Begunje, and then signs for Dobrča point us to the right on a little narrower road, on which we quickly get to a marked crossroad, where we continue right in the direction of Lešanska and Bistriška planina (left normal footpath on Dobrča). For few minutes we continue on a relatively steep asphalt road, and then we get to avalanche slope, where the asphalt ends. At the spot, where the asphalt ends is a nice viewpoint, from which a beautiful view opens up towards Kriška gora and part of Gorenjska. After the vantage point road passes into the forest and then it is gently to moderately ascending all the way to the mountain pasture Bistriška planina, which is located a little right from the road.
From the mountain pasture Bistriška planina we continue on the road which ascends through the forest and then it brings us on Breška planina, where there stands a hunting cottage.
We continue on the road which returns into the forest, and it gradually starts ascending steeper. Higher, we come at the marked crossing, where from the left joins a marked footpath from Brezje pri Tržiču, and we continue sharply right on a gradually more and more steep cart track. Next follows approximately 20 minutes of walking on the mentioned cart track, and then the path brings us out of the forest on the bottom part of the mountain pasture Lešanska planina. We continue on the mountain pasture upwards, where we quickly get to an unmarked crossing.
We continue right (left shepherd hut on Lešanska planina 50 meters and option to continue towards the mountain hut Koča na Dobrči and Dobrča) and we continue gently sloping ascent by the edge of the mountain pasture. After few minutes of additional walking, or more precisely few meters behind hunting observatory we continue left, where on a well visible path we are steeply ascending on the upper edge of the mountain pasture, where we again step on a cart track which we left at at the hunting observatory. We follow the cart track to the left and we are diagonally ascend to a marked path which leads from the mountain hut Koča na Dobrči towards the summit Dobrča. Here we continue sharply right and after 5 minutes of additional walking, we get to the top.
