Access to starting point:
From highway Ljubljana - Jesenice we go to the exit Ljubelj and follow the road ahead to the border crossing. Only few meters before the border crossing we will on the right side notice a parking lot, where we park.
Path description:
At the end of the parking lot, we notice signposts for mountain hut Koča na Ljubelju, which on some stairs take us to an old Ljubelj road. This road which is moderately ascending and is in the winter time converted into a sledding track we follow all the way to the mountain hut Koča na Ljubelju. With in parts nice views on Košutica, Veliki vrh and Begunjščica we reach the mountain hut after a little less than an hour of walking.
From the mountain hut, we continue on the road on the Austrian side, where after five minutes of walking signposts point us to the right into the forest. The path through the forest is slightly ascending and after approximately 30 minutes of walking from the end of the road brings us on the border ridge. The path on the ridge isn't steep but the slopes on which we walk are steep, therefore especially in wet a great caution is needed. In some parts we also get help from fixed safety gear and a ladder. Forest then becomes thinner and the path brings us on pastures of Grunt. Grunt is an indistinct peak on the path on which we walk.
Here from the right joins the path from concentration camp, and we continue straight on the ridge and by the border fence. The path then brings us to a crossing, where the path on a saddle Dovjakovo sedlo branches off to the left. And from the right joins the path from the mountain pasture Korošica. We continue straight on a more and more panoramic ridge. After that, the path becomes steep, and the forest is becoming thinner and gradually entirely vanishes. Further, we are ascending on a panoramic ridge, which is quite wide so that there is no significant danger. The path is then ascending through dwarf pines and it brings us on the Austrian side. Here we ascend through a short, but quite steep gully back on the ridge. Here we step on a steep with grass vegetated slopes on the Slovenian side (in wet dangerous for slipping). After this ascent over grass we come on an upper little exposed ridge which we then follow to the peak.
