Access to starting point:
From Kranjska Gora over the border crossing Rateče we drive to Trbiž / Tarvisio. Further, we drive on the old road towards Videm / Udine. Already after few kilometers from Trbiž / Tarvisio, the road into Ovčja vas / Valbruna branches off to the left. We follow the road to a large parking lot at the bottom station of old cable car.
Path description:
From the parking lot, we continue on the road ahead, but only about a minute, because we then notice a bad forest road which goes left upwards. The road which at first ascends is later barely ascending. After approximately 20 minutes of walking from the parking lot, the road crosses a torrent, and about 10 meters before the torrent, a marked path on Svete Višarje branches off to the left. Already at the very beginning of the footpath we run into an overgrown path, which through high grass and bushes brings us into the forest. The path through the forest is easier to follow, but pretty steep. The further path is marked, but blazes are already faded. Steep path leads us on in parts a very steep slope, which is in wet dangerous for slipping. The steepness decreases, when the path brings us on a ridge covered with a forest. The steepness is then still decreasing, and the path brings us to hovels of old wooden cottages. On this part, the path crosses overgrown area, and then again starts moderately ascending. The path ahead leads us also past two similar hovels, and then it ascends below an old cableway. The marked path from here ahead vanishes in high grass, so it is recommended, that we go right upwards, where in few steps we come to a ski track.
The path ahead continues on a rocky cart track which runs by the edge of the ski track.
In the winter it is forbidden to walk on a ski slope! While walking on a ski slope beautiful views opening up. A little higher we come to the crossroad of two ski tracks, and we go right steeply upwards. Here in front of us we see transmitters on Svete Višarje. When the steepness decreases we bypass the transmitters on the left side and the path brings us to the upper station of the cable car.
Only a short ascent follows to a church. Some meters above the church there is a breathtaking view on surrounding mountains.
