Access to starting point:
From highway Ljubljana - Jesenice we go to the exit Lesce and follow the road towards Bled and forward towards Bohinjska Bistrica. We continue driving towards the Lake Bohinj (Ribčev laz), where we come to the crossroad, where we continue right in the direction of Stara Fužina. In Stara Fužina at the crossroad at the chapel, we turn sharply left on an ascending road in the direction of the mountain pasture Blato, mountain pasture Vogar and valley Voje. The road ahead brings us to the spot, where the road toll or parking fee has to be paid, we follow it forward to the next crossroad, where we continue left (right Voje). Then we follow the road to the next crossroad (we drive for quite some time), where we turn sharply right in the direction of the mountain pasture Blato (straight mountain pasture Vogar). We follow this road to the parking lot above the mountain pasture Planina Blato.
Path description:
From the marked parking lot on the mountain pasture Blato we return few 10 strides back, and then we go on a wide and at first also quite a steep cart track in the direction of Planina pri Jezeru. After 10 minutes of relatively steep ascent, we come at the marked crossing, where we continue on the left steep cart track (straight mountain pasture Planina v Lazu), and a little higher joins also the marked path from the mountain pasture Planina Vogar. We continue on a wide, partly rocky cart track which higher for some time flattens, and then it steeply ascends through a smaller carved passage. Further, the path again flattens and then crosses steep slopes (in snow and ice dangerous for slipping). Only a little further, the path turns sharply to the left and it brings us in a cold small valley named Pungrat, where we cross an abandoned grazing fence. The path ahead again starts ascending steeper, and then turns to the right and entirely flattens. Only few meters ahead from the left joins the path from the mountain pasture Vodični vrh, and we continue straight and after 5 minutes of additional walking, we get to the mountain pasture Planina pri Jezeru, in the middle of which stands a mountain hut.
From the mountain hut, we descend to a marked crossing, where signs for mountain pasture Viševnik point us to the left on at first a poorly visible footpath. The path ahead ascends diagonally, and then passes into the forest, through which it is ascending all the way to the mountain pasture Viševnik.
From the mountain pasture, we continue left in the direction of Pršivec on the path which ascends diagonally towards the western part of the mountain pasture. After that, the path turns a little more left and starts ascending steeper. The ascent is short and ends with a light descent, after which we get to Majska jama (abyss explored to depth 592 meters). Only a little further, the path starts ascending steeply towards the summit of Pršivec, which we reach after approximately 20 minutes of additional walking on the more and more panoramic slope.
Blato - Planina pri Jezeru 1:00, Planina pri Jezeru - Planina Viševnik 30 minutes, Planina Viševnik - Pršivec 1:00.
