Tolminske Ravne - Vogel (steep path and over Globoko)

Access to starting point:
We drive to Tolmin, and then we continue driving in the direction of Žabče and Zadlaz (turn-off from the main road is located on the left bank of Tolminka). When we get to Žabče, at the smaller crossroad we continue slightly right in the direction of the settlement Zadlaz. In the settlement Zadlaz-Žabče the road for some time descends, where we over a bridge crosses Zadlaščica, and then again starts ascending steeply on narrow, but all the time asphalt road. After approximately 12 km from the main road we get to the marked parking lot in Tolminske Ravne, where we park.

Path description:
From the parking lot, we go on the path in the direction of the mountain hut Koča na planini Razor and mountain pasture Planina na Kalu. At first, we walk on a cart track which continues from the nearby house and leads us through a panoramic meadow. On the other side of the meadow, we cross a grazing fence and the path brings us to a marked crossing, where we continue on the lower right cart track (slightly left mountain pasture Planina na Kalu).
Further, we walk on a cart track which is slightly descending towards the right, and then it flattens and few minutes continues without large changes in altitude. After concrete trough path once again splits, and we choose the left steep path (path which continues straight also leads to the mountain pasture Razor, but the path is longer, but technically undemanding).
The path ahead again starts ascending, and it is ascending mostly towards the right, only here and there makes few hairpin turns. Higher, we pass over on steeper slopes, and a little further on exposed, but except first few steps, well-secured ledge. When the crossing ends path for some time returns into the forest, through which ascends steeper, and then we step out of the forest and the path flattens. From here follows few more minutes of walking with nice views on mountains, which are rising above the river basin of Zadlaščica and the path past cheese cottage brings us to the mountain hut Koča na planini Razor.
From the mountain hut, we continue in the direction of Globoko, Vogel, Vrh nad Škrbino on the path which crosses a lane of a forest and then on a gentle grassy slope splits.
From the crossing, we continue right (straight Vrh nad Škrbino and Dom na Komni) and we start moderately ascending. The path quickly returns into the forest and it brings us to the next crossing.
From the crossing, we continue left in the direction of Globoko (slightly right Vogel) on the path which quickly brings us out of the forest. When we step out of the forest we are ascending on a mule track, which at first occasionally also leads through lanes of bushes or dwarf pines, and then gradually passes on steeper, mostly grassy slopes. The path ahead is moderately ascending in few hairpin turns, and then follows a little longer diagonal ascent towards the right. Here slope gradually becomes steeper, and the path which still continues on a mule track higher brings us to an old concrete bunker, and a little further also to a smaller emergency bivouac, in which are situated some benches. From the bivouac follows few minutes of panoramic ascent, and then we reach the main ridge of Spodnje Bohinjske gore on a saddle Globoko.
From Globoko we descend on Bohinj side, on the path which is well-settled with logs, so that the descent doesn't cause problems, and a little lower we also get help from a steel cable (undemanding). After few minutes of descent, we get to a marked crossing, where we continue right in the direction of Vogel (left saddle Konjsko sedlo and Komna, straight downwards we can descend into Žagarjev graben or to the mountain pasture Zadnji Vogel.
After the crossing, we diagonally descend over at first steep slope, then the path leads us diagonally towards the left. Behind the smaller saddle, in few steps we descend to the next crossing, where we continue right upwards on the path in the direction of Vogel (straight ski slope Vogel, Šija...). Next follows a little steeper short ascent, after that from the left joins another path from the ski slope Vogel. Here as well, we continue right, and then in few steps we again step on the ridge of Spodnje Bohinjske gore, where we continue left in the direction of Vogel (right Vrh Krnic 2 minutes).
From the last crossing follows a little less than 10 minutes of ascent on a panoramic ridge and then we reach 1922 meters high peak.
