Access to starting point:
From Gorenjska highway (exit Lesce), Železniki or Soriška planina, we drive to Bohinjska Bistrica, and then we continue driving in the direction of Lake Bohinj. In Ribčev Laz, just before the lake we turn right towards Stara Fužina, where we at first drive over a bridge with a nice view towards Lake Bohinj and past the church of St. John the Baptist. When we get to Stara Fužina at the crossroad at the chapel, we turn sharply left on an ascending road in the direction of the mountain pasture Blato, mountain pasture Vogar and valley Voje. The road ahead brings us to the spot, where the road toll or parking fee has to be paid, we follow it forward to the next crossroad, where we continue left (right Voje). The road we then follow to the next crossroad (we drive for quite some time), where we continue straight (sharply right mountain pasture Planina Blato). Then we follow the road past the mountain pasture Vogar and we drive there to the parking lot at the end of the road.
From the spot, where a road toll has to be paid to the starting point is a little less than 11 km of driving, in the last part it is a macadam road.
Path description:
By the parking lot we notice signs for mountain pasture Planina Viševnik, which point us to the right on a wide and at first also quite a steep logging trail. After few minutes of a steep ascent, the logging trail flattens, and then the path continues without large changes in altitude still through the forest. When the logging trail turns to the right, we continue straight on a marked footpath, and at first, it is for a short time ascending gently. When the path becomes steeper, we will notice on the left side a cairn and next to it the path which leads on Pršivec (the path later joins the normal path from Vogar), and we continue straight on a steep mountain path. The path ahead is for some time still steeply ascending through the forest, after that for some time flattens and it brings us to abyss Brezno pri Gamsovi glavici (abyss is explored to depth 817 meters). Above the abyss, the path passes into indistinct and in the upper part also steeper small valley, through which we ascend on a smaller saddle between Pršivec (1761 meters) on the left and Gornji Viševnik (17022 meters) on the right. Here the path entirely flattens, and then it for some time continues through pastures of Gornji Viševnik. On the other side, the path returns into the forest and in few minutes of descent brings us to the mountain pasture Planina Viševnik, in the middle of which stands cottage Bregarjevo zavetišče.
From the mountain pasture Viševnik we continue slightly left (sharply left - Pršivec, left - Črno jezero, slightly right - mountain pasture Planina pri Jezeru past Krištofojca, right - mountain pasture Planina pri Jezeru) on the path in the direction of the mountain pasture Ovčarija and lakes Triglavska jezera. The path ahead at first ascends diagonally towards the left on a steeper slope, and then it gradually flattens and brings us on more plateau terrain. We continue southwest from Griva (1758 meters), for some time without large changes in altitude. A little further, more precisely at signposts in the direction of straight continues a footpath which leads towards the mountain pasture Dedno polje, and sharp to the left continues a marked path towards the mountain pasture Ovčarija.
At the mentioned crossing, we continue straight, and the path ahead leads us on a little less beaten footpath which continues without large changes in altitude. After a little less than 15 minutes of additional walking, we reach a marked path which leads from the mountain pasture Dedno polje towards the mountain pasture Ovčarija, and the mentioned path we follow to the right. Further follows few minutes of moderate descent and the path which leads us through mostly thin forest, brings us to the mountain pasture Dedno polje, where there are several shepherd huts and a cheese cottage.
From the marked crossing on the mountain pasture Dedno polje we continue left in the direction of saddle Vratca, Hribarice and Prehodavci (straight - Koča na planini pri Jezeru ), at first slightly downwards and past the shepherd huts on the mentioned mountain pasture. On the other side of the mountain pasture, the path again starts ascending and it brings us to a less noticeable crossing, where the path branches off to the right on the mountain pasture Planina v Lazu. We continue straight upwards on the path which gradually starts ascending steeper. The path which leads us past a watering-place for animals (watering place is dry) is ascending mostly through a conifer forest (larches and spruces). After approximately half an hour of walking from the mountain pasture Dedno polje terrain flattens and a nice view opens up on peaks, which surround the initial part of the valley Za Kopico. The path ahead is ascending on the southern slopes of Slatna and later slopes of Prvi Vogel.
When we get to the southern slope of Prvi Vogel, we leave the marked path and go right on pathless terrain. We look for area, where there isn't too much dwarf pines and we start ascending steeply. When we get to the ridge of the secondary peak, we already see the peak of Prvi Vogel. From the secondary peak, we descend few meters and follows only the last quite steep ascent on the southern slope towards the summit.
The starting point - Planina Viševnik 1:20, Planina Viševnik - Planina Dedno polje 55 minutes, Planina Dedno polje - Prvi Vogel 2:30.
On the way: Planina Viševnik (1625m), Planina Dedno Polje (1560m)
