Velacher Kotschna/Belska Kočna - Goli vrh

Access to starting point:
First, we drive to Jezersko, and then we continue driving in the direction of Austria. The road from Jezersko in few hairpin turns ascends to the border crossing Jezerski vrh, and from there in numerous zig-zags starts descending steeper. Lower at settlement Bela / Bad Velach, we come at the marked crossroad, where we continue right in the direction of Belska Kočna / Velacher Kotschna. The road ahead crosses the stream Bela and only few meters ahead brings us to the next crossroad. Here we continue straight on the right road and we continue driving by the already mentioned stream. We follow this road to the settled parking lot by the gate, which is preventing further driving.
Possible is also access over saddle Pavličevo sedlo. In this case, at settlement Bela we continue left. Further, we follow the description above.
Beacause of construction of new forest road (data from the year 2009) on the mountain pasture Jenkova planina, parking lot by gate can be full of timber, therefore we park already a little lower on an appropriate place by the road.

Path description:
From the parking lot, we continue on the road, and after 3 minutes of walking, it brings us to a crossroad, where we continue on the right road in the direction of the summit "Goli" (in Slovene Goli vrh, straight saddle Savinjsko sedlo). We continue the ascent on a macadam road, from which soon quite overgrown marked path branches off to the left, which leads towards the saddle Jenkovo sedlo. At first gently sloping path soon steeply ascends and then it brings us to a forest road which we follow to the right. The ascent on the road lasts only few steps, and then blazes point us to poorly beaten footpath which higher few more times crosses relatively new forest road. Higher marked path finally leaves the forest road and then it ascends even steeper. The steepness then gradually decreases and quite an overgrown path quickly brings us to the mountain pasture Jenkova planina, where there stands a smaller unsupplied cottage.
Near the cottage on the mountain pasture Jenkova planina we will notice Austrian signpost with the caption "Goli 615", which points us on at first gentle footpath. The path already after few steps goes into the forest, where in light ascent crosses some steep and in wet for slipping dangerous slopes. A little further, the path passes on an indistinct eastern ridge of Goli vrh, where it starts ascending steeper and steeper. Higher, the path gradually passes out of the forest on the more and more panoramic slopes of Goli vrh. When we already think, that we have to the top only few steps, a view opens up on "main" peak to which, we have a little less than 5 minutes of walking.
Described mountain path is currently CLOSED (July 2009).
