Path description:
From the starting point, where there is also a smaller crossroad of multiple roads, we continue in the direction of the path Riklijeva pot, which signs point us slightly right on a narrower macadam road which is gently ascending by the grazing fence. At first, a beautiful view opens up towards Karawanks, and then the road turns left and after a short ascent for some time descends. In smaller valley we leave a worse road and we continue an ascent left on a cart track in the direction of the path Riklijeva pot. We continue on a cart track which continues through the forest, at the crossings we follow the signs for path Riklijeva pot. Higher a nice view opens up on Kamnik Savinja Alps, and the path then returns into the forest and gradually brings us on a forested ridge. On the ridge, we are at first ascending, and there we descend to a forest road which we follow in the direction of the mountain pasture Rčitno.
Further, when we walk on the road, we are also accompanied by Knafelc blazes. A quite gentle road which for some time runs through a small valley, higher turns right and becomes steeper and more and more similar to a wide cart track. During the ascent on a bad road for some time a view opens up a little in the direction of Galetovec, and when the path returns into a dense forest, it also splits.
We continue straight on a wider marked path (bad road) (on the path right, by which we can notice some faded blazes it is possible to come on Hotunjski vrh), by which we soon notice signs, that we got to Rčitno, but at first we are still in the forest. When we leave the forest we reach Rčitno, where there are few cottages.
In the middle of the bottom part of the mountain pasture, we continue left in the direction of Bohinjska Bela and on the road which soon changes into a cart track, in a moderate ascent we ascend on the upper south edge of the mountain pasture, where we continue right (straight Bohinjska Bela) past the cottage in the forest. In the forest, we quickly notice signs for Pokljuka, and we diagonally ascend to a forest road which we follow sharply to the left (slightly to the right continues a marked path towards Pokljuka).
A little further a nice view opens up on Bled lake, and the road further is mostly gently to moderately ascending. When after longer right turn road brings us on a meadow, still before the feeding site we leave it and we continue right on often quite rough cart track. On first crossing of cart tracks we choose the left, and on the second right branch, in both cases wider cart track. When the cart track flattens, slightly left from the cart track we notice a footpath which continues parallel above cart track. Some 10 strides ahead from the right also joins another footpath which from the cart track branches off a little further, and on a footpath which runs through the forest, we continue to a smaller saddle, where we join the other cart track, and there we quickly ascend to a macadam road which we follow to the left. While walking on the road from the left joins the marked path from Bohinjska Bela - path over Slamniki.
Here few steps ahead, only a little before memorial NOB, in the direction of straight or slightly towards the left path on few minutes distant Turn (1249 meters) branches off, and we continue right on a marked path which continues on the road.
At the next crossing, which is located not far away, we leave the road and we continue left in the direction of Galetovec (straight Belska planina).
The path ahead leads us on a pleasant cart track which after few minutes we leave because signs for Galetovec point us to the left, on at first poorly noticeably footpath which descends by the edge of the forest to a smaller valley, where passes into the forest. Through the forest, we follow the blazes and the forest path, on which in few minutes we ascend on a panoramic peak.
The starting point - Rčitno 1:00, Rčitno - Galetovec 1:35.
