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 the mountain hut Dom v Dragi (right Tržič). Asphalt road then brings us to the parking lot near the mountain hut in Draga. We park a little further, parking in front of the hut 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. We continue left on the road (right Preval-a over Luknja), which starts ascending through the gorge. Ahead road passes into a dense forest, where it is then for quite some time ascending. Higher, we come to the unmarked crossroad, where we continue on the right "main" road. Still ascending road, higher passes out of the forest on the periphery of the mountain pasture Planinca. We ascend on the road also a little further to a crossroad, which is situated only few meters before the cottage on the mountain pasture Planinca.
At the crossroad, we continue sharply right, on the road in the direction of the mountain pasture Preval-a (straight Poljška planina and Roblekov dom). The road which then crosses slopes of Begunjščica towards the east is at first slightly to moderately ascending, and then it flattens. A little further sharply to the left path on Roblekov dom (over Roža) branches off, and we continue on the road which gradually starts descending. This occasionally quite panoramic road, we then follow to shepherd cottage on the mountain pasture Preval-a.
