Podljubelj - Dom na Kofcah (via Matizovec)

Access to starting point:
From highway Ljubljana - Jesenice, we go to the exit Podtabor (Tržič, Ljubelj), and then we continue driving towards Ljubelj. After approximately 6 km of driving from gas station at Bistrica pri Tržiču, we leave the main road, because signs for Podljubelj point us to the right on a local road. Only a little further, we get to the next crossroad, where we continue right and then after few 10 meters we park on an appropriate place in the middle of the village.
If at the crossroad, when we drive in Podljubelj we turn left, we will hardly find an appropriate parking spot.

Path description:
From the starting point, we return few 10 meters back to a crossroad, and from there we continue on the asphalt road in the direction of Matizovec and Kofce. The road ahead starts moderately ascending through the village, then flattens and it brings us to a smaller crossroad, where we continue right in the direction of Kofce.
Further, we are for quite some time ascending on an asphalt road, and past a smaller cross it brings us to a hamlet with few houses (Pod Košuto). Here we continue straight on again a little steeper road which soon loses an asphalt covering. Some 10 meters ahead, is situated large macadam parking lot, which we bypass on the right side. From the road, from which occasionally views opening up on Dobrča and surrounding mountains, few turns higher marked footpath branches off to the right, which cuts one turn. The footpath returns on the road at last turn before the farm Matizovec.
From Matizovec we continue on a rough road in the direction of Dom na Kofcah, and on some successive crossings, we carefully follow the blazes. After few minutes of walking on a rough road or cart track, blazes point us on a steep footpath which at first ascends diagonally towards the left and then passes on a forested ridge, where it turns a little to the right. Further, we are ascending on a steep mountain path, which higher crosses a cart track and behind it gradually flattens. Only a little further, forest gets thinner, and marked path turns right in the forest and a little higher joins the cart track which is ascending diagonally towards the right. Cart track higher turns to the left, and from the right joins also the marked path from Kal.
From the crossing ahead forest ends, and more and more scenic path in 5 minutes of additional walking brings us to the mountain hut Dom na Kofcah.
