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.
Path description:
From the starting point, we walk to primary school in Podljubelj, there at the crossroad we continue left in the direction of Kal and Kofce. The path at first runs on a macadam road which is moderately ascending by the stream Jezernica. When few minutes higher, the road makes a longer right turn, we leave it and we continue slightly left on a wide and marked cart track. Cart track or worse road little higher at decaying house ends, and we continue on a worse cart track which passes into the forest. A short time we are still ascending on the right side of the stream and then we cross it and we pass on the left side. A little further, we get to other stream, by which we ascend to the near homestead. House we bypass on the right side, and then immediately behind it left. Some meters higher blazes point us to the right on a grassy slope, by the edge of which we ascend to the near wooden cottage. Here the path turns slightly left and a little ahead crosses a grazing fence. For some time poorly visible footpath continues through the pasture straight upwards, after that when we leave the pasture it passes into the forest and a little higher crosses a cart track. We continue straight past a bigger rock and we continue the ascent in the direction of Kal. The path continues on a smaller valley and is occasionally also steeper ascending. Higher, we reach the cart track, on which we quickly step out of the forest and there ascend to the nearby cottage Zavetišče na Kalu.
