Access to starting point:
From Kneža (to here we come from Podbrdo or Most na Soči) we turn towards Kneške Ravne. When the path branches off to the left in the village, we continue straight a little further to a sharp turn (gate) where we park.
Path description:
We go on the road to the right past the gate. The path brings us to the hunting cottages, where we turn right on a well visible footpath. It brings us to a marked path (mule track), which crosses Spodnje Bohinjske gore. (On the right side where there stands a wooden cottage, we can continue past it on a poorly visible footpath to the ridge Ravenska Ovčja Suha and there to a saddle Suha. Before the path higher in the forest turns right towards the ridge we can turn also left on the old smuggling footpath which brings us on Vrata; fn. footpath higher on grass isn't easy to follow).
Immediately when we step on a marked path we turn left through a torrent and after few steps at first spruce immediately right on a poorly visible footpath. We continue on the forest or through an indistinct small valley, that runs in the direction a little right from Vogel. The footpath is poorly visible and when we come higher to an old scree it vanishes. But orientation isn't difficult, because we all the time follow route of main gully, which is descending right from Vogel. Few 100 meters higher we clearly see in front of us: on the left main gully, on the right a little smaller rocky gully, in the middle among dwarf pines third small gully: on this we ascend straight upwards towards the north (demanding pathless terrain, recommended to use a helmet). When gully in front of us ends with a wall, about 50 meters before the wall we turn by dwarf pines to the right, where a nice passage among rocks and grass brings us to narrow crumbly gully. We ascend there upwards and when gully starts to split we turn to the right and on easy grassy slope we come on the ridge, where we step on a marked path towards Vogel.
We continue to Vogel.
Descent: We descend to the saddle between Vogel and Žabiški Kuk. We continue on Žabiški Kuk. From there we descend to Močila, where we step on a marked mule track, which to the left leads towards the starting point. When we come past a source on lowest part of the path, we turn right on an unmarked footpath towards Kneške Ravne (caption on rock). When we get to decaying cottage, we continue downwards through the forest all the time left from a meadow. When we get to a cart track (relatively new) we descend there at first right and then left to larger farm. Next to it we continue left on the left side on a worse cart track a little uphill to the ridge and then a little downwards. After about 100 meters we notice right downwards abandoned, but well visible footpath which brings us into a groove and to a stream. By the stream where fence ends we turn downwards by the water and after about 100 meters on the left we notice our starting point.
