Kanonir - Kozji vrh

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. When we get to municipality Jezersko, we will soon notice signs for inn Gostišče Kanonir. After the inn we go left on the road in the direction of Dol - Podstoržič and farm Kovk. Further, we drive on a little narrower road which leads us past houses, and after few 100 meters of additional driving, we get to a crossroad, where a steep road branches off to the left, on which also continues a marked path on Kozji vrh. We park on an appropriate place by the crossroad.

Path description:
From the starting point, we continue on the left road in the direction of Kozji vrh, by which we notice, that from 20/7 to 20/10 further driving is forbidden. About 20 minutes we walk on a quite steep road, and then we come out of the forest, on the edge of the pasture Robci, from where a nice view opens up towards the massif of Kočna.
From Robci, which are situated on the saddle between Macesnovec (1042 meters) on the left and Kozji vrh (1628 meters) on the right, we continue right, on a cart track in the direction of Kozji vrh. Cart track quickly leads in the forest, through which we start ascending steeper. At few smaller crossings we follow the blazes, cart track higher changes into a mountain path, which is then mostly ascending diagonally towards the right, and in doing so it crosses many gullies and steep slopes. In wet is on some parts greater danger for slipping, and also in dry in some parts more caution is needed. Higher through the treetops a view opens up a little, and the path brings us below the cliffs of Kozji vrh, where mainly in spring time is greater probability of falling stones. Below cliffs path leads through smaller scree, and mostly on a steep slope. When the crossing ends path brings us on an indistinct forested small saddle between Kozji vrh on the left and Turni (1432 meters) on the right.
Here "path" branches off to the right, which leads below Turni and continues on the ridge of Licjanovec (1733 meters) and leads to Mali Grintovec (1813 meters), and we continue left through a dense forest, on a marked path which leads on Kozji vrh. For some time we are ascending through a dense forest and then the path passes over by the edge of nortwestern ridge of Kozji vrh, where becomes pretty steep. With occasional views on Karawanks (Košuta, Obir...) we are for some time steeply ascending, after that occasionally slightly exposed path, becomes less steep and together with the ridge turns a little to the right. Next follows few minutes of a light ascent on a panoramic ridge and the path brings us on 1628 meters high Kozji vrh.
