Access to starting point:
From highway Ljubljana - Jesenice, at the junction Podtabor we continue in the direction of Ljubelj and Tržič. We continue driving on the road towards Ljubelj, and then just before the gas station, we turn right in the direction of Tržič and Begunje. The road then starts descending, and at the first crossroad, we continue left (direction Begunje) in underpass, through which we come in Bistrica pri Tržiču. A little further a sign for Begunje points us right on a narrower and ascending road which we then follow through Brezje pri Tržiču to the village Hudi Graben, where at the end of the village, we park on an appropriate place by hiking signposts.
Possible is also access from Begunje.
Path description:
From the starting point, we continue by the main road to sign for the end of the settlement Hudi Graben, few meters after the sign cart track branches off to the right upward by which we will also notice the sign with the caption »Dobrča 2h«. On the cart track, we continue to the first house, and then blazes point us to the left on a footpath which leads through the forest. Soon the path brings us on another cart track on which we are for a short time ascending, and then we continue left on a footpath. Later we come again on a cart track on which we are then ascending for quite some time. Cart track also has some crossings, on which we stick slightly to the right. After that, the path becomes a little steeper and it brings us to a crossing, where from the left side joins the path from Zadnja vas.
We continue straight on a relatively steep path which still runs through the forest. Higher, we step on a bad forest road, on which in few 10 strides we walk to a wider macadam road. The mentioned road, we only cross, because blazes point us to footpath which higher few more times crosses the mentioned road. The mentioned footpath which is occasionally ascending quite steep, we then follow all the way to the mountain hut Koča na Dobrči.
Near the mountain hut Koča na Dobrči signs for the peak Dobrča point us on the forest road, on which we start slightly descending towards the north. After a short descent, we notice signposts, which point us to the right on the mountain pasture Podgorska planina, which cottages we bypass on the right side. Next, we ascend on a panoramic grassy slope, and then the path passes into at first thin, and higher more and more dense forest. When the steepness decreases from the right join two paths, and we in both cases continue straight. The path ahead again steeply ascends and after few minutes of additional walking brings us to the summit of Dobrča.
