Access to starting point:
From highway Ljubljana - Jesenice we go to the exit Radovljica (from Gorenjska side exit Lesce) and follow the road ahead in the direction of Begunje. At the end of the village Begunje we turn left towards Dom v Dragi (right Tržič). Asphalt road then brings us to a parking lot near the mountain hut Dom v Dragi. We park a little further, parking in front of Dom v Dragi is allowed only for guests.
Path description:
From the parking lot, we continue on the road which past a bee house in few minutes of walking, it brings us to a crossing, where we continue right in the direction of the mountain pasture Preval over Luknja (left mountain pasture Planinca, mountain pasture Poljška planina and Roblekov dom). The path ahead crosses the stream and is then for some time ascending gently on the bottom of the valley.
Further, valley narrows and the path in a moderate ascent brings us to narrow gully, through which with the help of fixed safety gear we ascend steep upwards.
A short secured part technically isn't that difficult, but it is exposed to falling stones.
Higher, the path brings us from the gully, where then for some time continues along the stream. Next follows an ascent on shorter ladder (undemanding), and then the path passes into the forest, where we continue until we get on a worse road.
We follow the mentioned road only few steps, and then blazes point us to the right on a marked footpath which continues on and by the cart track. Higher, the cart track finally changes into a footpath which goes a little more to the right and starts ascending steeper and steeper. This in the last part relatively steep path, we follow all the way to the mountain pasture Preval-e, which we reach after few minutes of additional walking. When we reach the mountain pasture follows only a short walk to the shepherd hut.
Hut, from which a beautiful view opens up, which reaches all the way to Triglav, we bypass on the left side, and we continue in the direction of Dobrča. The marked path towards Dobrča, on which we continue, further on the left side bypasses unnamed peak, and when the path returns on the ridge, we reach it on the saddle between Čisovec and unnamed peak.
On the mentioned saddle marked path towards Dobrča turns right downwards, and we continue on a worse footpath which continues on a ridge (one footpath leads also left from the ridge). On the ridge, we few times steeply ascend, and a worse footpath because of the fallen trees several times entirely vanishes, but there aren't any problems with orientation, because we all the time stick to the ridge. When the forest gets thinner we quickly reach the panoramic peak of Čisovec.
Dom v Dragi - Preval-a 1:30, Preval-a - Čisovec 30 minutes.
