Access to starting point:
First, we drive to Preddvor or to the settlement Tupaliče (to here from Gorenjska highway or Kranj), and then we continue driving in the direction of Jezersko and forward towards Austria. When we get to the border crossing Jezersko, we park on a parking lot on the Slovenian side (possible also on the Austrian side).
Path description:
From the parking lot on the Slovenian side of the border we continue towards Austria, and then on the Slovenian side we go left, on first road which branches off from the main. After few steps of walking on the mentioned road we notice yellow signposts, which point us towards Pristovški Storžič / Kärtner Storschitz, and we bypass sign on the left side and we still continue on the macadam road. The road only a little further turns a little to the left and passes entirely on the Slovenian side, where it is ascending diagonally on slopes of Pristovški Storžič. Further, the road brings us by the upper edge of the mountain pasture Rakeževa planina, from which a nice view opens up on Zgornje Jezersko and the highest peaks of Kamnik Savinja Alps. The road continues through the forest, and occasionally leads us also through some panoramic part. Higher, at the former JNA guardhouse, from the left joins the path past waterfalls of Anko, and we continue on the road which entirely flattens. A little further, at the smaller crossroad we continue on the left road (on the right road we can get to Pristovški Storžič (road after the crossing joins the marked path from the village Korte / Trögern)), and it gradually starts considerably descending. After few minutes of descent, we get to the mountain pasture Roblekova planina, from which a nice view opens up on Virnikov Grintovec, Pečovnik, Plešivec and Tolsta Košuta.
From the upper part we descend to the shepherd hut, which we bypass on the left side. Lower, the road passes into the forest and it brings us to a marked crossing, where the marked path on Virnikov Grintovec branches off to the left / Kleiner Grintoutz, and we still continue on the road which is moderately descending. Even a little lower road turns right, so that it continues parallel with the stream Grintoviški potok / Grintoutzbach, which is on our left side. From the turn few more strides we walk on the road, and then on easier pathless terrain we descend to a stream, we carefully cross it, and then on its other side we start moderately ascending towards the west, where with a little luck we quickly step on a cart track which after 2 to 3 minutes brings us to the other macadam road which we reach right at the right hairpin turn (looking in the direction of ascending on the road).
We ascend through hairpin turn and we continue the ascent on a moderately ascending road which quickly brings us on some kind of broad ridge, where the cart track branches off to the left, at first still road which ends below the slopes of Virnikov Grintovec, and we continue slightly left on a wider macadam road. Next follows traversing mostly northern slopes of Virnikov Grintovec, where on part of the path, a nice view opens up on a wall of the mentioned summit, and on the other side, we clearly see Obir. Next follows a little longer descent, and from the road still a nice view opening up towards Tolsta Košuta, Obir, Pristovški Storžič and other surrounding mountains. At few smaller crossroads, we continue on "main" road, that runs mostly western to northwestern, and it all the time runs on the Austrian side of the national border. When the road again starts ascending it gradually gets very close to the national border, and a little higher road makes a sharp left turn. After the mentioned hairpin turn the road again returns towards the national border, and we walk there almost to its end. It is best to leave the road somewhere at the border stone with number 222 (some border stones are visible from the road, so we can approximately predict, which stone has a number 222), and then we continue on a small footpath which continues directly by the national border. When we leave the road we at first moderately ascend, and then we get out of the forest, by the edge of a larger clearing. Through the clearing, we ascend on the Slovenian side of the national border in a gentle ascent. When the ascent ends, follows few steps of descent. After the mentioned few steps of descent we join a better beaten path which leads from ruins of Pečovnik (former JNA border building).
We continue on a better beaten path which continues on the Slovenian side, and after few minutes of a diagonal ascent it returns on the ridge. We continue slightly left and past a stone with a number 238 we walk below the peak of Pečovnik (1640 meters), which is only few steps from the path.
We continue straight, where the path further leads by the edge of a larger border clearing. After few minutes of walking, where the path runs almost without changes in altitude, we slowly start moderately ascending towards the next summit (Pečovnik - survey point 1668), which we reach without any bigger problems and from which a view opens up, which reaches all the way to Triglav.
