Medvedova konta - Debela peč (via Kotel)

Access to starting point:
From highway Ljubljana - Jesenice we go to the exit Lesce and we follow the road in the direction of Bled, there in traffic lights crossroad signs for Pokljuka point us to the right. This road which in the lower part runs through few villages and later starts ascending steeper we follow to Mrzli Studenec (mountain pasture, which is located good 50 meters behid the crossroad, where left downwards road to Bohinj branches off). In the middle of the mentioned mountain pasture from the main road, the road which runs to Medvedova konta, Pri Rupah and mountain pasture Zajavornik branches off to the right. Here we turn right and we follow the road to the next crossroad, where we continue right in the direction of Medvedova konta (straight mountain pasture Zajavornik). The road ahead after a short ascent descends and it brings us to the next crossing, where we continue left in the direction of the mountain hut Blejska koča. We follow this road to the parking lot in front of a gate, further driving is forbidden.
In the winter time, the road to described starting point usually isn't accessible.

Path description:
From the parking lot, we continue on a wide cart track in the direction of the mountain hut Blejska koča na Lipanci. On a wide cart track, over which there is a gate, we walk to the first left turn. At the mentioned turn we leave the cart track and we continue straight through the forest, where we follow a worse footpath, on which in less than 5 minutes we get to the end of the nearby forest road. We reach the road at the turning point, which is very similar some sort of roundabout. In circle we go clockwise, and we walk on the road to the nearby cart track which from the road branches off to the left (cart track is located few meters before we step out from a circle). We go on the mentioned cart track, and it continues on the left side of the nearby Kotel (Kotel is larger, mostly unvegetated sinkhole in the middle of forests, in which cold air is kept). Cart track, which is barely noticeably descending soon ends, and we continue in approximately same direction.
Further, we walk on pathless terrain, only occasionally we can follow the remains of old cart tracks and footpaths.
From the spot, where the cart track ends we at first descend a little to the bottom edge of a slope (slope on the left side, on the right side the terrain is less steep), and then we are all the time gently to moderately ascending on series of indistinct valleys, and those are situated by the lower edge of the already mentioned slopes. Higher becomes "path" for some time a little steeper, and then it quickly flattens on meadows of Prevala, where we reach a marked path mountain pasture Klek - Debela peč, or mountain pasture Klek - mountain hut Blejska koča na Lipanci.
We reach a marked path right at the marked crossing, and we continue straight in the direction of Debela peč (left Lipanca, right mountain pasture Klek). Further, the path starts moderately ascending through thinner (mostly) larch forest. Only a little further, we pass into a smaller valley, through which we are ascending to the spot, where signs for Debela peč point us sharp to the left. The path ahead passes into a lane of dwarf pines, through which we ascend below the ridge of Klečica (the peak Klečica is situated more to the right). Only few 10 meters before the mentioned ridge, marked path turns left and starts diagonally descending towards the southwest. During the descent, few times a breathtaking view opens up on Debela peč. The path ahead for some time crosses with dwarf pines vegetated slopes, and then turns to the right and starts very steeply ascending. After a short ascent, we again reach the ridge, from which a nice view opens up towards Radovna.
On the ridge, the path turns to the left and it avoids the ridge into a dwarf pine, through which the path is still very steeply ascending. The path higher flattens and brings us on panoramic and on some spots also precipitous ridge (path runs a little below the ridge, so that there is no significant danger for slipping). The path ahead slightly descends, and then it brings us by the upper edge of gully in the shape of letter V. We continue on a marked path, which then leads us by ridge of Debela peč, and after less than 5 minutes of additional walking brings us on a panoramic peak.
