Access to starting point:
We drive to the border crossing Ljubelj, where before the tunnel we turn left towards Zelenica. Then we drive across a small bridge, after that on a parking lot we descend to the bottom south part of the parking lot, where we park.
Path description:
At the end of the parking lot, we notice signs for mountain pasture Preval, which points us on the path Bornova pot. At first, we diagonally ascend through smaller scree, and then the path passes into the forest, where with some shorter ascents and descents crosses steep slopes towards the left. Forest is soon replaced by steep rocky slopes, through which leads wide and on exposed spots also secured path. With nice views on mountains, which are rising above Podljubelj we get to Born's tunnel, where for easier and safer moving forward is highly recommended to use a lamp. Somewhere in the middle of the tunnel is situated a bigger window, from which is a scenic view on surroundings, and we carefully continue through the second part of the tunnel. When we leave the tunnel, in which are in rain also some large puddles, follows few minutes of exposed crossing, and then behind the bench "Marijino počivališče (Marija's resting place)" we get to larger scree.
In a gentle descent, we also cross scree, and then the path gradually starts ascending diagonally. At first, we are still ascending through the steep slopes, after that at first the slope flattens, and higher footpath widens into a cart track. Higher follows crossing of grazing fence, and then the path brings us out of the forest, and in few 10 strides of additional walking, we ascend on Preval, where there is a marked crossing.
From the crossing, we continue left (right Begunjščica) and we walk to the shepherd hut.
Hut, from which a beautiful view opens up, which reaches all the way to Triglav, we bypass on the left side, and we continue in the direction of Dobrča. The marked path towards Dobrča, on which we continue, further on the left side bypasses unnamed peak, and when the path returns on the ridge, we reach it on the saddle between Čisovec and unnamed peak.
On the mentioned saddle marked path towards Dobrča turns right downwards, and we continue on a worse footpath which continues on a ridge (one footpath leads also left from the ridge). On the ridge, we few times steeply ascend, and a worse footpath because of the fallen trees several times entirely vanishes, but there aren't any problems with orientation, because we all the time stick to the ridge. When the forest gets thinner we quickly reach the panoramic peak of Čisovec.
Ljubelj - Preval-a 1:30, Preval-a - Čisovec 30 minutes.
