A) From highway Ljubljana - Jesenice we go to the exit Kranj - east and follow the road ahead in the direction of Jezersko. From Zgornje Jezersko we continue driving over alpine mountain pass Jezerski vrh to Železna Kapla / Bad Eisenkappel, where we turn left in the direction of the settlement Šajda / Zell Schaida. Further, we drive through the valley of the stream Obirski potok, and we follow the road only to the inn Obir Pepi, where we turn right in the direction of the mountain hut Eisenkappler Hütte. The road then starts ascending steeper and higher brings us to a saddle Kurnikovo sedlo (997 meters), where a road toll has to be paid. Next follows few more kilometers of driving and quite winding road brings us to a large parking lot at the mountain hut Eisenkappler Hütte.

Path description:
From the parking lot, we at first walk to the nearby mountain hut, and then we continue on a marked path in the direction of the summit Ojstrc / Hochobir. The path soon above the mountain hut goes into the forest, through which it is then for some time ascending. Higher, the path, by which we notice a larger number of learning signposts flattens and out of the forest brings us into a lane of dwarf pines. Next follows few minutes of easy walking and the path brings us to benches on panoramic summit Kraguljše.
From Kraguljše, from which a nice view opens up on Ojstrc, the path at first slightly descends, and then past a smaller watering place for animals brings us on an ample ridge. When we step on the ridge, wide marked path turns to the left and then it is ascending diagonally towards the left. After a short ascent, we get to a saddle "Kalte Quelle", and the path is then for some time ascending diagonally towards the left. Higher, the path turns right and by the edge smaller valley ascends to the ruins of former mountain hut at an altitude 2040 meters (Rainer Schutzhaus). The path ahead ascends on a smaller saddle in the main ridge of Obir, where from the left joins the path from the saddle Šajda / Zell - Schaida, and we continue right and on and by more and more panoramic ridge, which is mainly in snow dangerous for slipping and we ascend to 2139 meters high peak.
