Access to starting point:
A) First, we drive to Idrija, and then we continue driving towards Tolmin. After a time road brings us to a crossroad, where the road in Cerkno branches off to the right, and we here still continue straight, but we need to pay attention because we will soon get to the settlement Reka. Only a little after the end of Reka, we will notice signs for Bukovo, Zakojca and homestead Bevkova domačija, which point us to the right on a narrower and ascending road. Further, we are ascending for quite some time, and then we get to a hamlet Kojca, where we continue right in the direction of village Orehek and Jesenica. From the crossroad ahead we drive good 500 meters and then we get to the sharp left turn, where there is a larger macadam parking lot, where we can park.
B) From Most na Soči we drive to the settlement Bača pri Modreju, and then we continue driving towards Idrija. Only about 100 meters before the beginning of the settlement Reka, the road branches off sharply to the left towards Zakojca, Bukovo and homestead Bevkova domačija. Further, we are for quite some time ascending on a narrower road, and then we get to a hamlet Kojca, where we continue right in the direction of village Orehek and Jesenica. From the crossroad ahead we drive good 500 meters and then we get to the sharp left turn, where there is a larger macadam parking lot, where we can park.
C) From Podbrdo we drive towards Tolmin, and we follow the main road to the settlement Grahovo ob Bači. Here we continue left in the direction of village Bukovo and Zakojca and the road which at first descends, and then it starts ascending steeper we follow to the village Bukovo. When we get to Bukovo we continue driving, and we follow the road towards villages Orehek and Jesenica. When we get to the sharp left turn, which is located a little less than 100 meters before the beginning of the village Orehek, we park on a larger macadam parking lot.
Path description:
From the parking lot, we continue on the asphalt road, on which we quickly get to the nearby chapel. At the chapel, we continue left on a macadam road, on which we start ascending steeper. We walk on the road good 10 minutes, and then at the house, we turn right on a marked footpath. The path ahead at first ascends through a lane of a forest and then it brings us to one of many haylofts, where it turns sharply to the right. We continue the ascent on a cart track, and it soon brings us on an ample meadow. Here signs point us to the left on a little poorly visible footpath which is ascending by the edge of a smaller "avenue". On top of the meadow, the path turns to the left and is then ascending diagonally on occasionally steep, partly also grassy slopes. Higher, the path passes into the forest and starts ascending even steeper. A pretty steep path further leads by the edge a nearby gully, which higher crosses, and then turns to the right and entirely flattens. Next follows a crossing of a grassy slope, and then before the marked path passes into the forest, we continue left following the signs Kojca (straight old path).
Further, we are ascending on newly made path, which is easy to follow, but unmarked. The steep path which continues mostly on grassy slopes, makes few hairpin turns, and higher ascends diagonally towards the right and a little below the summit flattens. Next follows a shorter easy ascent and the path brings us to the famous pile on the top of Kojca, by which there is also a newer bivouac and inscription box.
