Path description:
From the starting point, we continue on the main road towards Žiri, and we walk there good 50 meters, or to a crossroad, where the road to Ledine branches off to the left. From the mentioned crossroad, we continue left and then immediately right in the direction of a marked path towards Sivka. After the nearby house, the road for some time loses an asphalt covering, and then in a moderate ascent joins a little wider road which we follow right in the direction of Sivka (straight Jazne, and left downwards we can return on Ledinsko Razpotje). A short ascent follows, and then the road flattens and leads us on quite panoramic terrain. Behind the chapel, which is situated between two linden trees, the road descends a little and it brings us on a plateau. A little further from the right joins also the marked path from Žiri through Vrsnik and Govejk.
We continue in the direction of Sivka, on a gently sloping road which gradually brings us in the village Ledine, where on the right we notice Jurečeva šupa (museum collection), and on the left on the bus stop shelter is attached an inscription box, in which is a stamp and inscription book.
The path ahead leads us through the village, and after the sign the end of the settlement Ledine, we continue right, where also the blazes point us to. The path then quickly ascends above the village, from where there is a nice view towards the part of the plateau, on the left, by the path, we also notice a smaller park. or NOB monument.
Asphalt road is then moderately ascending on at first still quite panoramic slopes, from which a beautiful view opens up, which reaches all the way to Trnovski gozd. Higher, the road passes into the forest, where it leads us past a smaller religious symbol, which we notice a little right from the path. Next follows traversing of a meadow, and then we are few minutes ascending through the forest. The main road higher brings us out of the forest, where in few steps we get to a marked crossing by the chapel.
From the mentioned crossing, we continue right in the direction of Ermanovec (left peak of Sivka 10 minutes) and on the asphalt road we start moderately descending. When the descent ends, at the first crossroad (by the crossroad there is a stable) we continue straight in the direction of Bevkov vrh (sharply right Ledinica, Breznica and Žiri).
The path ahead is lightly descending, including past the farm Vodičar, and then we get to a marked crossing, where the marked path branches off slightly to the left on Bevkov vrh.
We continue on the road, to which from the left also the path from Sovodenj joins, and after the information board of the path Pot ob rapalski meji, we get to a smaller crossroad, where a relatively steep macadam road branches off to the right, on which in a minute of additional walking, we ascend to the mountain hut Mrzl'k.
