Path description:
From the parking lot, we walk to the nearby mountain pass, and from there we continue right in the direction of the peak Ojstrc / Hochobir (Ojstrc is the highest peak of Obir). The path at the very beginning leads past a pleasant space for rest, and then on the macadam road, from which a nice view opens up on the northern walls of Košuta, Setiče / Freiberg and more. On the macadam road which branches off from the main road on the mountain pass Šajda we walk to signposts, which point us to the right on the path which starts ascending through the forest. The path which further 8 times crosses the macadam road is most of the time ascending through the forest, but in between there are enough clearings, grassy slopes and thin forest, from where a nice view opens up mainly towards the south and west. When we finally leave the road we ascend on wooden stairs, after that out of the forest we get to a larger meadow, where on the right we notice Kacmun's cross.
At Kacmun's cross the path turns at first left and leads us past the entrance into a tunnel. After the tunnel in the direction of straight continues the steep path on Kravji vrh / Kuhberg (through a meadow pathless terrain), and we continue on a marked path, which turns right in the forest. Mostly spruce forest after few minutes starts to get thinner, and then the path over a grazing fence brings us on panoramic and more and more grassy slopes. The path continues through an indistinct grassy valley towards the saddle Obirsko sedlo / Obirsattel. Few strides before we reach the saddle, marked path turns right, and we continue to the ridge, from where a nice view opens up towards the north, where we clearly see Borovnica dammed lake, part of the valley Drautal, Mali Obir, Ojstrc...
If on the saddle pay attention, we can notice an old faded sign "Kuhberg", which points us to the left. Continuation of the path, we find in a lane of dwarf pines few meters below the ridge, after that unmarked but cutted path through dwarf pines we follow towards Kravji vrh. The path on Kravji vrh continues on and by the panoramic ridge and at first leads on a secondary peak of Kravji vrh, which is otherwise higher than the one, on which there is a cross. Next follows a moderate descent and then a shorter ascent to a cross and inscription box on Kravji vrh.
