Tinčkova koča - Tomčeva koča na Poljški planini

Access to starting point:
From highway Ljubljana - Jesenice we go to the exit Lesce and follow the road ahead in the direction of Žirovnica and Jesenice. After few kilometers of driving, we will get to a crossroad, where the road in Žirovnica and Moste branches off to the right (from the direction Jesenice left). Only few meters ahead in the next crossroad, we turn left in Moste (right Žirovnica). Further, we drive past a monument to fallen soldiers, where the road starts ascending on a hill below the railway track. On top of the slope, we turn right (at the sign Vila Karin), and then drive towards the lake Završniško jezero and Valvasorjev dom. The road then flattens and it brings us to a crossroad, where the road towards the mountain hut Valvasorjev dom branches off to the left, and we continue straight. Further, the road leads past a well-settled parking lot, and the asphalt road soon becomes a macadam. Macadam road which is on some steep sections has asphalt pavement, higher brings us to a smaller crossroad, where we continue straight in the direction of Zelenica and Roblek (right road leads towards the saddle Kališča). The road then crosses a grazing fence and only a little further brings us to the cottage (Pri žagi). We continue driving on again steeper road, by which we soon notice signs for mountain pasture Poljška planina and Roblek, which point us sharply right. Because by the signsposts there isn't any appropriate parking spot, we drive a good 50 meters higher and then we park on an appropriate place by the road.

Path description:
From the starting point, we return on a macadam road to the nearby signposts for mountain pasture Poljška planina and Roblek, and from there we continue on at first parallel mountain path. The path ahead descends to a smaller stream and crosses it, and then passes on the western slopes of Begunjščica, where at first crosses moderately steep slopes. We continue crossing towards the right, where we quickly get to very steep slopes, through which we diagonally ascend. Further path isn't the most pleasant, because poorly maintained path leads over very steep slope, which is dangerous for slipping (especially in wet). Above exposed part path and the slope flatten out, and we continue with the crossing. The path which still continues through the forest, gradually again passes on steeper slopes. Next follows few more minutes of crossing, and then we pass over on southwestern slopes, where slope visibly flattens. After a short ascent on a less steep slope, we get to a smaller crossing, where the path towards the monument NOB branches off to the right downwards, and we continue straight, on the path which is moderately ascending through the forest. Higher, we join the cart track which we follow to the right, and there we in few minutes descend to the mountain hut Tomčeva koča on the mountain pasture Poljška planina.
