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 signs for Zelenica point us to the left and after few 10 meters of additional driving the road brings us on a parking lot below the ski center Zelenica.
Path description:
From the parking lot, we go on a footpath in the direction of Zelenica, Vrtača and Stol. Cart track which runs on the left side of the ski track, after approximately 15 minutes of a moderate ascent through the forest brings us to the before mentioned track by which we are then ascending. The path which offers nice views on extensive scree of Begunjščica on the left and to a ridge of Ljubeljščica on the right then in a gentle ascent brings us to the hut Vrtača. From the mountain hut, we continue straight on a marked path, which slowly turns slightly to the left and after a shorter diagonal ascent brings us into a lane of dwarf pines. Further, the path is for a short time steeply ascending and then brings us on a cart track (transport road), which we follow in a moderate ascent to the mountain hut Dom na Zelenici.
While ski track operates it is forbidden to walk on a ski slope. At that time we use the winter path which runs on a transport road.
From the hut, we continue left in the direction of Begunjščica and mountain hut Roblekov dom on the path which through a lane of a forest and dwarf pines brings us below the scree of Begunjščica. On the other side of the scree, over which leads a nicely routed path, we come in a lane of dwarf pines. Here we start ascending steeper on the path which offers nice views on surrounding peaks. On the top of the ascent, which lasts approximately 20 minutes, we step on a distinct side ridge of Begunjščica. The path ahead crosses relatively steep slopes, and then after a short descent, we step on extensive scree of Smokuški plaz. Next follows crossing of the mentioned scree, and the path then again passes on steep slopes. Next follows a diagonal ascent on slopes, which are partly covered with dwarf pines. On this part we run into a short, slightly harder passage, over which we get help from a steel cable, which is useful, when the path is wet. Occasionally a little steeper path, then with increasingly beautiful views brings us on the main ridge of Begunjščica, where we get to another in dry barely needed steel cable. Next follows few steps long descent and the path brings us to a crossing, where we continue right downwards in the direction of the mountain hut Roblekov dom. After a short descent, the path quickly passes into a lane of dwarf pines, which is lower replaced by a thin forest. When we step out of the forest in front of us we already notice Roblekov dom, which we then reach in few steps.
