Access to starting point:
A) We drive to Bled, and then we continue driving towards Pokljuka. On Pokljuka we follow the main road to a large parking lot at barracks on Rudno polje. The parking lot is payable.
B) We drive to Bohinjska Bistrica, and then we continue driving towards Bled, but only to the turn-off of the road for Pokljuka. We continue in the direction of Pokljuka, in Jereka we go right towards Pokljuka and also in the next crossroads, we follow the signs for Pokljuka. When we get to Mrzli studenec we continue left and we drive to a large payable parking lot at barracks on Rudno polje.
Path description:
At the end of the parking lot, a macadam road branches off to the right, by which there are signposts for Triglav and Viševnik. We go on this road which is slightly ascending and after ten minutes brings us to the ski slope Viševnik.
We continue on the road (right - Viševnik and Blejska koča na Lipanci), from which soon to the left a marked path branches off towards Triglav. We continue on the mentioned path which in few minutes of a moderate ascent brings us on the forest road which we follow to the left and we walk there only few meters. The marked path then goes right and is ascending steeply for a short time. After ten minutes, the steepness decreases and the path slowly passes on steep slopes. Over steep slopes the path is mostly slightly descending and it is more and more turning to the right. A little further, we will on the left below us notice the mountain pasture Konjščica, our path then stops descending and passes out of the forest into dwarf pines. The path which is again ascending then runs below the steep rocky cliffs and soon after that, it brings us to a crossing, where we join the path from the mountain pasture Planina Konjščica.. Next follows a shorter ascent and the path brings us into a nice small valley named Jezerce.
Here the path turns left and after few steps it brings us into central area of Triglav national park. Next, we ascend by a well towards Studorski preval. A little higher we cross a torrent, and the path goes a little to the right on grassy with dwarf pines surrounded slopes. The path then ascends diagonally to Studorski preval from which a nice view opens up to Bohinj side.
From the saddle, we continue straight (left - Ablanca, right - Veliki Draški vrh and sharply right - Srenjski preval) on the path which starts descending and after few steps of a descent turns to the right. A short descent follows, and then the path continues in crossing, at first slopes below Veliki Draški vrh and later Tosc. When we come on unvegetated southern slopes of Tosc we will get to a smaller crossing, where the unmarked path on Tosc branches off to the right (turn-off is marked).
We continue on unmarked, but easy to follow path which starts ascending steeper and steeper over grassy slopes of Tosc. Increasingly steep path is slowly turning a little towards the right, and then turns sharply to the left and almost entirely flattens. Next follows traversing of short steep slope, and then the path brings us on less steep slopes, where it starts gradually vanishing. A poorly visible footpath then turns slightly to the right and starts ascending a little steeper. After few minutes of the ascent, we step on an indistinct Mali Tosc, from which a view opens up on Tosc. Next follows a short descent and the path past a bigger sinkhole, which we bypass on the right side brings us by the upper foot of Tosc. The path ahead moderately ascends over a pleasant grassy slope and after few minutes of additional walking brings us to the summit of Tosc.
Orientation in fog is difficult.
The starting point - Studorski preval 2:20, Studorski preval - Tosc 1:45.
