Access to starting point:
From highway Ljubljana - Jesenice we go to the exit Lipce and follow the road ahead in the direction of Jesenice. When we come to the traffic light crossroad, where we join an old road, we continue right in the direction of Žirovnica. And we follow this road only a short time because at the next little larger crossroad (traffic light) we continue left in the direction of Javorniški Rovt. The road then goes through the underpass (railway) and then turns left (right Koroška Bela). The road that higher starts ascending steeply we follow in the direction of Javorniški Rovt, but only to a crossroad, where in sharp the left turn, the road branches off to the right (straight) towards the mountain hut Dom Trilobit and source of Javornik (prohibited for buses). A little further, the road brings us to the mentioned mountain hut and artificial lake at hydropower plant Javornik. We park on the unmarked parking lot, which is situated behind the lake and mountain hut Dom Trilobit (parking in front of the mountain hut isn't allowed).
Path description:
From the parking lot, we go on a cart track in the direction of natural and mining learning trail. Cart track immediately starts relatively steeply ascending on the left side of the stream, which we hear in our vicinity. The path soon brings us to a wooden pole on which signpost for mountain pasture Stamare points us right (straight mountain pasture Seča). We continue right and the cart track in few minutes brings us to interesting source of the stream Javornik.
We continue the ascent on a cart track which has few smaller crossings, but if we follow the signs of mining learning trail we won't have any bigger problems with orientation. Cart track then changes into poorly visible footpath which only a little higher joins a wide cart track which we follow left upwards.
Often a quite muddy cart track we then follow past a bigger rock (boulder), after which we need to pay attention. Approximately 3 minutes of walking from the mentioned rock, cart track turns right, and right in that turn we leave it and we continue the ascent straight on a barely visible footpath which at first ascends through a quite thin forest. A poorly visible footpath then brings us into a dense forest, where it starts ascending steeply by smaller torrents upwards (orientation on this part is very demanding). Higher, the path becomes easier to follow and after few minutes of additional walking brings us to a grazing fence. Ahead we "cross" the fence and in few additional strides, we step on the mountain pasture Stamare (shepherd hut is situated on the eastern part of the mountain pasture).
