Access to starting point:
From Kranjska Gora, we drive towards Vršič. Immediately after the bridge over Pišnica on the right we see a parking lot. Here we park.
Path description:
From the parking lot, we turn on the path on Vitranc, but on the mentioned path we don't ascend, but we follow the path by the foot, until it descends on gravel. On gravel and by Mala Pišnica we walk a little by left and a little by the right bank, where we are accompanied by some cairns. But orientation here isn't difficult, because we walk by bank of Mala Pišnica. On our right side, about 100 altitude meters higher we see remains of the upper path, which is closed and deadly dangerous. We walk ahead and we stick to the right bank and we need to pay attention after about 25 minutes of walking right uphill steeply ascends hunting footpath. Like this, we ascend on treeline and on a hunting footpath we walk until from our right joins the upper closed path. Now we walk on a comfortable path all the way to gravel terrain, after that there to the hunting cottage in Mala Pišnica. Here we stick to the path which runs straight. Which brings us into the forest where we are ascending on the right side. We need to pay attention, forest is quite broken and there aren't many cairns, we follow them and we somehow go towards some sort of saddle or chasm (here this is our best orientation). When we get there our path and the path from Tamar through Grlo join. At this crossroad we again notice the sign that the path in Mala Pišnica is deadly dangerous and closed.
Further, we are ascending on the path towards Vršič and after 30 minutes we join the path which comes from Vršič. From here, where we go right we already see the peak of Slemenova špica. On the path we walk for approximately 20 more minutes to the top.
