Molnarjev breg - Kamniški vrh

Access to starting point:
A) From highway Ljubljana - Jesenice we go to the exit Vodice, and then we continue driving to a first traffic light crossroad in Vodice, where we continue left in the direction of Cerklje na Gorenjskem and Brnik. When we get to the main roundabout in Spodnji Brnik we continue driving in the direction of Cerklje and ski slope Krvavec. At the end of the settlement Cerklje na Gorenjskem we leave the main road which continues towards Velesovo and Visoko and we continue driving slightly right on a road in the direction of the ski slope Krvavec. Further, we get to the village Grad, where signs for settlement Ambrož pod Krvavcem point us to the right on a steep asphalt road (straight bottom station of the cable car on Krvavec and Štefanja Gora). When the steepness on a steep road decreases a little, we will get to a crossroad, where we continue left in the direction of the settlement Ambrož pod Krvavcem (straight settlement Ravne, Apno and Šenturška Gora). A little further, the road for some time descends a little and then it is ascending through occasionally quite panoramic slopes. Higher, we get to Ambrož pod Krvavcem, where on the left side we bypass church of St. Ambrož and tourist farm Pr Ambružarju. From the tourist farm ahead road passes into the forest and relatively steeply ascends diagonally. When we get to left zig zag, we are at the starting point, where on an appropriate place, at the smaller crossroad we park.
B) From highway Jesenice - Ljubljana we go to the exit Kranj - east, and then we continue driving towards Brnik, Komenda and Mengeš. When we get to the main roundabout in Spodnji Brnik we continue driving in the direction of Cerklje and ski slope Krvavec. At the end of the settlement Cerklje na Gorenjskem we leave the main road which continues towards Velesovo and Visoko and we continue driving slightly right on a road in the direction of the ski slope Krvavec. Further, we get to the village Grad, where signs for settlement Ambrož pod Krvavcem point us to the right on a steep asphalt road (straight bottom station of the cable car on Krvavec and Štefanja Gora).

Path description:
From the starting point, we go on the forest road which crosses slopes of Molnarjev breg. We are slightly ascending on the road, and then we get to a smaller crossing, where we continue slightly left on the upper road (bottom road or cart track soon ends), by which we also notice blazes. Next follows few minutes of a diagonal ascent, on the road from which occasionally a view opens up. A little further, the road again splits, and we again choose the left upper road, and from there only few 10 strides ahead steep cart track branches off to the left. We continue on the road, on which we walk to the a turn.
From the turn we continue straight on a marked footpath which diagonally continues through the forest. In the forest, we quickly get to a marked crossing, where we continue straight in the direction of Kamniški vrh (right downwards Kamniški vrh over mountain pasture Osredek). Next follows few minutes of crossing, and then we get to the eastern ridge of Kržišče, and few steps ahead also to a marked crossing.
We continue slightly right (left Kriška planina) on the path which starts descending on or slightly north from vegetated ridge. On a smaller saddle (1200 meters) between massifs of Krvavec and Kamniški vrh, from the right joins the path from the mountain pasture Osredki, and we continue straight, on the path that runs on the northern side of the ridge. After a shorter crossing, where the path gets very close to the ridge, unmarked path on Planjava branches off slightly to the right, and we still continue on the left, northern side of the ridge. Next follows traversing of a steeper northern slope of Planjava, after we already get east from Planjava, we return on the ridge. When we reach the ridge, we descend a little more towards the east, and then we get to a marked crossing, where we join the better beaten path from Stahovica and Županje Njive.
Here we continue straight and we start ascending steeply on panoramic western ridge of Kamniški vrh. After approximately 10 minutes of ascent we reach Kamniški vrh, if we continue about a minute further we also get to the bivouac on Kamniški vrh.
