Access to starting point:
From highway Ljubljana - Jesenice we go to the exit Ljubelj (Tržič), and then we continue driving towards Ljubelj. Just before the gas station in Bistrica pri Tržiču we leave the main road and we continue driving right in the direction of Tržič. Further, we drive through Tržič in the direction of gorge Dolžanova soteska, and then at the end of the town we continue right in the direction of Lom pod Storžičem and Grahovše. When we get to Grahovše we drive on the road to the nearby quarry, by which there is a marked parking lot.
Path description:
From the parking lot, we continue on the road by which we've parked and already after few steps we come at two crossroads. In the first crossroad we continue straight (right over a bridge is a village) in second we come to mountain signposts.
Here we go left on the upper path with signs Javornik, Stegovnik and Bela peč. The road here starts moderately ascending and in parts runs over panoramic meadows. The road then brings us to the next crossroad, where we go again left (right farm Rekar).
The road then crosses private land, where there is a gate and soon after that, it comes to the next crossing. Here we continue on the right road in the direction of the mountain pasture Javornik. The road from here ahead for some time runs almost horizontal, but then again starts ascending and it brings us to a smaller hamlet. Here we continue ahead on the road which is slowly turning towards the left. Soon and then the road makes a right turn and it brings us to a signpost.
Here we leave the road and go on a footpath sharply left towards Bela Peč (straight mountain hut Koča na Javorniku). The path goes immediately in the forest and at first only crosses slopes. After few minutes of walking from the road in front of us on the right side we notice a wall. Here we put on a helmet and we continue further on the path which starts ascending steeper below the walls of Bela peč. We ascend to the edge of the wall where inscription box is situated.
From the box we descend three steps back to a signpost, where caption "Bela peč uhojena steza" (beaten footpath) points us right. The path ahead is ascending on steep scree below the wall. Here is high risk of falling stones! Path in steepness circles peak and only few meters below the summit, more precisely at fence joins the path from Konjščica and cottage Pr Zdravc. After that we cross the fence and in few steps we reach the peak.
