Access to starting point:
From Škofja Loka we drive towards Gorenja vas and further to Hotavlje, where we turn right in the direction of village Leskovica. The road soon brings us in the village Kopačnica, behind which it starts ascending steeper and higher brings us to the village Leskovica. From Leskovica we continue towards SC Cerkno, and we follow the road only to the next village Laze, where signs for apartment Ribič and Blegoš point us to the right towards the mentioned village. We park good 100 meters higher, by the sports field ŠD Gamsi Laze.
Path description:
Only few meters before sports field we notice the beginning of the marked path which leads on Blegoš. We go on the mentioned path which starts moderately ascending on a wide cart track. Higher, the cart track narrows and it passes into a dense forest, where then after few minutes of additional walking brings us to an unmarked crossing.
We continue slightly right (slightly left Črni vrh on an unmarked path) and we still continue the ascent on a marked cart track. A little further, the cart track for some time flattens, and then starts ascending steeply on slopes of Kovk. Higher, the cart track changes into a footpath, and it quickly brings us out of the forest on grassy slopes, where it turns to the right and entirely flattens. Next follows crossing of a larger meadow, and then the path returns into the forest, where it is ascending gently towards the right. The path ahead leads us past a smaller well, and then after few minutes of additional walking through the forest, joins paths from the village Leskovica and Volaka. Next follows a short diagonal ascent and the path brings us on a smaller saddle, where for some time we step out of the forest.
On the saddle, where there is a marked crossing we continue right in the direction of the mountain hut Koča na Blegošu (left Črni vrh, straight Črni Kal) on a rough road, on which in few minutes we ascend to Koča na Blegošu.
From the mountain hut on Blegoš we continue on at first gently sloping path, which ascends on a panoramic grassy slope. The path soon starts ascending steeper and it brings us to the edge of the forest, where it is ascending on narrow unvegetated lane. The steepness soon decreases and the path brings us on a panoramic ridge of Blegoš, on which we ascend in few minutes to peak.
