Jermanca - Planjava (via Kamniško sedlo)

Access to starting point:
We drive to Kamnik and follow the road ahead towards the valley of Kamniška Bistrica. From the hut in Kamniška Bistrica we continue driving on the forest road which higher brings us to a crossroad, where we continue right towards Jermanca (straight starting point for Kokrsko sedlo). This occasionally a little more steep road we follow to a parking lot, which is located little before the end of the road.
Driving from the mountain hut in Kamniška Bistrica to Jermanca is now forbidden (traffic sign), this extends the path for a good hour.

Path description:
From the parking lot, we continue on the road by which we've parked. After few minutes, the road ends, and we continue on a footpath without large ascents or descents. The path which crosses large number of gullies after that joins the path from Kamniška Bistrica (lower starting point). Here we need to pay attention to the descent, that we go on the same path as we came from. Well marked and relatively steep path, which for some time is still ascending through the forest, higher brings us to a pleasant well (in dry periods dries up). From a well a short ascent follows and the path brings us to known resting place Pri Pastirjih, where there stands an emergency bivouac.
We continue straight on a marked path, which then quickly passes out of the forest on an ample panoramic meadow. Behind the meadow, the path goes in a lane of dwarf pines, where it starts ascending steeper again. The path which ahead runs on sunny side slope with increasingly beautiful view after a good hour of walking from Pastirji brings us to the mountain hut Koča na Kamniškem sedlu.
At the mountain hut, we go right towards the east in the direction of Planjava (left Brana, Turska gora and Okrešelj). The path ahead crosses scree (option for a descent), and then becomes technically demanding. The path then ascends on a wide ledge and brings us into a wall of Planjava. We get help from fixed safety gear, which over ledges and gullies in which in the early summer, there is still snow bring us on the upper less steep slopes of Planjava. The path ahead runs on high mountain grass and it brings us to a crossing, where we go left (right Korošica). The path which in parts becomes pretty steep we follow towards the summit of Planjava. Only few minutes below the summit from the right joins the path from the valley Logarska dolina and Korošica. The path which from here on isn't demanding anymore quickly brings us on a panoramic peak.
