Access to starting point:
From highway Ljubljana - Jesenice we go to the exit Podnart (Ljubelj), and then we continue driving on the road towards Ljubelj and Tržič. When "fast road" ends (blue sign), we will on the right side notice gas station, in front of which we turn right downwards towards Tržič. Further, we drive through Tržič, and we follow the narrower road towards the gorge Dovžanova soteska and then through the village Dolina and Jelendol to a hamlet Medvodje, where we park on a marked parking lot by the nearby crossroad.
Path description:
From the parking lot, we continue on the right road in the direction of Stegovnik and waterfall Stegovniški slap (left road leads towards the mountain pasture Dolga njiva), and it quickly brings us to the next crossroad. Here as well, we continue right (left road continues by the river Tržiška Bistrica) in the direction of waterfall Stegovniški slap. Further, the road leads us past the football field, after which the road gradually passes over the next to the stream Stegovnik. For some time we are ascending by the stream, on which we can observe small pools and cascades, and then on the left side we already notice waterfall, to which leads a shorter footpath, and from the road it branches off to the left.
