When we get to Bašelj, at the spot, where the main road makes long left turn, we leave it and we continue driving straight in the direction of the path Gamsova pot. We continue driving on a narrow asphalt road which leads us between the houses and stream Belica. We park on a parking lot by Tourism Association Bašelj.

Further, we drive through the underpass below the highway, and then we get to a roundabout, from where we continue driving in the direction of Golnik. The path ahead leads us through the settlement Mlaka pri Kranju, and at the end of the settlement, we continue right in the direction of the settlement Srakovlje. Next follows driving through Srakovlje, Spodnja Bela, Srednja Bela, Zgornja Bela (in Zgornja Bela we join the road from Preddvor) to Bašelj, where the main road makes long left turn, we leave it and we continue driving straight in the direction of the path Gamsova pot. We continue driving on a narrow asphalt road which leads us between the houses and stream Belica. We park on a parking lot by Tourism Association Bašelj.
Path description:
From the parking lot, we continue in the direction of source of Belica, Kališče and Storžič (left Gamsov raj) on for public traffic closed macadam road which on the right side bypasses hut of Sports tourist park Belica. The road, from which at first a nice view opens up on Storžič leads us past football and basketball field and in approximately 10 minutes brings us to a marked crossing by turning point of the road.
From the turning point, we continue right in the direction of Kališče on a marked path (left Kališče on the forest road, and also Gradišče (Pustinjak) and Kališče past hospital Košuta), which starts ascending by left tributary of Belica. The path ahead leads through the forest, at first on the left side of the gully, and then crosses it and passes on the right side, where after a shorter ascent, we reach rough forest road or cart track. We follow the cart track for few minutes, and then blazes point us to the right into the forest through which we are ascending relatively steeply. Higher, we cross overgrown clearing, and then we again step on a wide cart track. On the cart track this time we walk only few steps, because already on first turn we continue straight on a gradually less and less steep path. A little further, we cross other cart track and above it we get very close to a wide cart track. By the spot, where we get very close to the cart track is situated mountain signpost, which marks the path downwards. Here we continue straight and after a minute or two of additional walking, we join a better beaten path from Mač.
From the mentioned crossing, we continue left in the direction of Kališče (straight Mače on the road, right Mače on a footpath) and we continue through a shorter lane of a dense forest. Dense spruce forest quickly ends and we step on a rough forest road which leads from the valley of the stream Belica. On the road which soon makes a left turn we are ascending for few minutes, and then on the right side we will notice the continuation of the mountain path (turn off is well marked). The path ahead passes on a steeper slope and is in numerous zig-zags relatively steeply ascending. Higher forest for some time gets thinner and a nice view opens up towards the south. On the part of thin forest a wooden bench offers pleasant rest, and a little ahead "surprises" us working clock on a tree. Further a little for some time we cross towards the right, so that we reach forested south ridge of Kališče. On the mentioned ridge path turns sharply left and then in few hairpin turns ascends to Spodnje Kališče, from where a beautiful view opens up on Storžič.
