Access to starting point:
From highway Ljubljana - Jesenice we go to the exit Kranj - east and we follow the road ahead in the direction of Jezersko, but only to the inn Kanonir, where we turn left. We further follow at first still asphalt road but only to approximately 2km distant crossroad, where the road branches off to the right on Stegovnik. We go on this road which we follow few 100 meters to a gate, where we park on a smaller parking lot.
Path description:
From the gate we follow the forest road which after approximately 20 minutes brings us to a crossroad. We go right and we follow the road also to a bigger grassy clearing on which stands a house. Here we go straight on a footpath following the signs Stegovnik (left Stegovnik through the window, unmarked path). The path ascends a little and it brings us to a cart track. Here we carefully look for blazes and we have to be careful, that the cart track doesn't mislead us. After that, the path few more times crosses a cart track and it brings us on a saddle Močnikovo sedlo together with the cart track.
Here on the saddle we go sharply left and on a wide path already after few steps we come to the next crossing. We go again left in the direction Stegovnik. The path soon brings us on the other cart track. This is the cart track on which we were walking already before the saddle. We follow this cart track for approximately 5 minutes to the spot, where the path branches off to the right upwards on Stegovnik. After the initial ascent path quickly becomes gentle and in traverse towards the right brings us to a torrent gully. Here the path starts ascending steeply by the torrent which in the upper part crosses and it brings us on the other side. Here the steepness decreases again and through a nice forest it brings us to a saddle named Pri Lojtri.
Next follows an ascent on at first gentle ridge, which soon becomes quite steep (in wet dangerous for slipping). After that, the path with the help of steel cables overcomes the only demanding spot on the path. The path crosses 3 meters long exposed ledge. And and then the path brings us on less steep ridge which with nice views, we follow to the peak which we reach in 10 minutes of additional walking.
On the way: Močnikovo sedlo (1315m)
