Fusine Laghi - Monte Coppa

Access to starting point:
First, we drive to Kranjska Gora, and then we continue driving towards Rateče and ahead in Italy. When we cross the border we drive on the main road only about 500 meters and then by the road we notice signposts for "Monte Forno and Bivio M. Cavallar". Here we continue right on a bad macadam road, by which about 50 meters ahead we park on an appropriate place by the road.

Path description:
From the starting point, we continue on an increasingly bad road which quickly brings us on a relatively steep meadows. Over meadows we walk on a marked cart track and we are mostly ascending diagonally towards the right. At first beautiful views are opening up on Julian Alps, and then the path passes into the forest and turns to the left. Further, we are ascending diagonally towards the northwest, and the path leads on an old mule track, which higher joins the macadam road. When we step on the road, we continue sharply right, and it ascends on a smaller saddle, after which the road towards the summit Kavalar (also Kavalarka) / Monte Cavallar branches off to the left, and we continue straight on the road which starts moderately descending. For some time we are descending on the road, by which we notice numerous warnings, that we are not allowed to leave the road, because otherwise we would step on private property. After a short descent at first road towards Marija Snežna / Madonna della Neve (on a sign Maria im Schnee) branches off to the left, and few meters ahead to the right road towards Kopa / Monte Coppa (1497 meters).
From the second crossing we continue sharply right in the direction of Kopa / Monte Coppa (straight Peč (tromeja)) and we continue on a narrower road which is further ascending through a dense forest. Higher, the road leads past the abandoned buildings (buildings from the time of Rapallo border), and a little further also to a statue of Holy Mother of God. Here the road turns sharply to the left and then gradually changes to at first a wide cart track. At the crossing of cart tracks few minutes above the statue of Holy Mary we continue left and we continue on a moderately steep cart track. Further, occasionally a view opens up a little on Julian, Carnic and Gailtal Alps, but the path mostly runs through a dense forest. A little below the summit, we get to some buildings of former Rapallo border, and here also ends until now quite rare blazes.
We continue on an unmarked cart track which quickly ends, and from the end of the cart track, we continue right on an indistinct ridge, on which in few steps we get to the top of Kopa.
