Planina Blato - Visoka glava

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.
In the winter time, the road is often impassable, this extends the path for from half an hour to hour and a half (it depends where we leave the car).

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 continue slightly left and at first downwards to a marked crossing, from which we go on the right path in the direction of the mountain pasture Dedno polje (left mountain pasture Viševnik and Pršivec). Still a wide path is at first gently, and then moderately to steeply ascending through a thin spruce forest. Higher, the path over Krištofojca branches off to the left, which leads towards the mountain pasture Viševnik, and we still continue on a wide path, which higher flattens a little and then turns slightly to the right, where in front of us we notice mountain pasture Dedno polje. Here the path turns to the left and after few additional strides, it brings us to the mountain pasture Dedno polje, by the edge of which there is a marked crossing.
From the crossing on the mountain pasture Dedno polje, we continue straight in the direction of Koča pri Triglavskih jezerih, and we follow the marked path for approximately 10 minutes, or to the spot, where on the right side a nice passage opens to at first smaller and indistinct valley. We continue the ascent on completely pathless terrain, and in doing so, we stick to a smaller valley between Kovačičeva glava on the right and less distinct peak Visoka glava on the left. "Path" then steeply ascends, small valley flattens and brings us in harder passable terrain covered with dwarf pines. Among dwarf pines we are looking for passages, and we all the time stick slightly to the left, where higher we step on very panoramic and gently sloping ridge. On the ridge, which is still vegetated with dwarf pines we ascend to the peak, on which stand few individual larches.
