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). Soon after Bistrica pri Tržiču a macadam road towards Vila Bistrica branches off sharply to the right. Here we turn right and then we park on an appropriate place by the road.
Path description:
From the crossroad, we continue on a macadam road in the direction of Vila Bistrica. The road, that is gently ascending in few minutes brings us on asphalt, where we get to a crossroad, by which there is a chapel.
Immediately behind the chapel we continue sharply left on a cart track which on the left side bypasses the nearby residential house (nearby we notice also signposts for Dobrča and Bistriška planina). Cart track quickly passes into the forest and relatively steeply ascends to some sort of the ridge, from which occasionally a view opens up a little towards Kriška gora and Gorenjska. When the ridge ends we continue on the right cart track which returns into forest, we walk there to more grassy part (area named Na planincah).
Further cart track is occasionally relatively steeply ascending, and then it brings us to more successive crossings, where it flattens. At the crossings, we carefully follow the blazes, which eventually from the cart track divert on a forest footpath. Quite gently sloping path then in few minutes brings us to mounain pasture Bistriška planina.
On Bistriška planina we step on the road, and we walk there towards the left, where after few steps we step on other wider road. Other road we follow upwards, and we continue there by the edge of maountain pasture Bistriška planina. The road ahead moderately ascends through the forest and then it brings us on the mountain pasture 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.
