A) From highway Ljubljana - Jesenice we go to the exit Lesce, and then we continue driving towards Bled and forward towards Bohinj. After the settlement Bitnje, which main road bypasses on the left side, we continue sharply right in the direction of Jereka and Pokljuka. Further, the road at first steeply ascends, and after Korita gradually flattens and it brings us to a crossroad by bus stop, where we continue right in the direction of Pokljuka, Koprivnik and Jereka (straight Srednja vas). Immediately after the crossroad, we get to Jereka, and from the crossroad in front of the church we continue straight towards Pokljuka (left Podjelje). After Jereka the road again starts ascending steeper, and higher flattens and continues by stream Mrzli potok. At the bus stop signs for Koprivnik point us to the left, and from the mentioned crossroad we drive a little less than 200 meters and then we park on a parking lot near the parish church.

Path description:
From the parking lot at the church on Koprivnik we continue on the road in the direction of Vodnikov razglednik. The road at first leads us through a meadow, and after a smaller bridge we continue slightly left, on the road which is with a traffic sign closed for public traffic. After a short ascent, we get to the fire station, and behind it signs for Vodnikov razglednik point us on the right road which at first loses an asphalt covering, and then changes into a footpath. The path ahead short time leads through the forest and then through meadow we reach the other asphalt road which we follow to the right. We walk on the road short time, and then before the lonely house we continue slightly right, on the path which on the right bypasses house and business building.
When buildings behind the house end, from the right side also the path from Jereka joins, and we continue straight on the path which passes into the forest. Next follows few minutes of steeper ascent, where we get help from a wooden fence (undemanding) and the path brings us on Vodnikov razglednik.
