Planina Dol - Gradišče (Velika planina)

Access to starting point:
First, we drive to Kamnik, and then we continue driving in the direction of the mountain pass Črnivec. Only few 100 meters before the mentioned mountain pass we notice signs for Kranjski Rak, which point us sharply left on a narrow and at first also quite steep road. The road higher flattens and then brings us to a mountain pass Volovjek, where immediately behind the inn Kranjski Rak we turn left on a road in the direction of Velika planina. Further, we drive on a macadam road which higher brings us to the next little bigger crossroad. We continue right (straight mountain pasture Kisovec) and we follow moderately ascending road past the parking lot Ušivec. From the mentioned parking lot we continue on a little rough macadam road which at the crossroads we follow in the direction of the mountain pasture Planina Dol. After a time the road starts steep descending, and we follow it to a marked parking lot near the mountain pasture Planina Dol.
From the valley Savinjska dolina at first we drive to Luče, and then we continue driving towards Kamnik. When we come on the mountain pass Volovjek (Kranjski Rak) we continue right in the direction of Velika planina. Further, we follow the description above.

Path description:
From the parking lot, we continue on a macadam road which is barely noticeably descending towards the western part of the mountain pasture. After few minutes of easy walking we will notice on the left side shepherd hut, and we continue on a macadam road for few 10 meters ahead, to the spot, where on a tree we notice signs for Konj and Velika planina. Here we continue left (right Konj) and after a short gentle ascent we get to shepherd huts on the mountain pasture Dol.
From the shepherd huts on the mountain pasture, past a cross we ascend to the edge of the forest and then we continue the ascent on the path which is ascending through the forest. Higher the forest is becoming thinner and the path after approximately 30 minutes of ascent from the mountain pasture Dol brings us on the mountain pasture Konjščica, from which a view opens up towards the nearby Rzenik.
We continue the ascent on a gently sloping, partly grassy path, which is barely ascending towards the south. The increasingly panoramic path, from which nice views opening up on the main Grintovci, soon brings us to a forest road, where we come on a well-marked crossing. We continue right in the direction of the inn Zeleni Rob (left chapel of Marija snežna, Domžalski dom, Črnuški dom...) on the road which already after 50 meters of additional walking brings us to the next crossing. This time we continue on a cart track in the direction of "Rože vrhov", which ascends steeply past numerous shepherd-holiday cottages. The path soon flattens and brings us on a grassy plain, from which we already clearly see the highest peak of Velika planina, which we reach after a minute of additional walking.
In fog the orientation is from the mountain pasture Planina Konjščica to the top very difficult.
