Access to starting point:
From highway Ljubljana - Jesenice we go to the exit Ljubelj and follow the road ahead towards the border crossing. When we leave the last tunnel (we recognize it by that, that after the tunnel on the left side of the road there is scree) we will in the first sharp left turn notice a road house and next to it a macadam road. Here we park on a smaller parking lot or we drive on a bad road further to the next parking lot, which is situated a little higher.
Path description:
From the parking lot, we go on a bad forest road and we follow it ahead. The road higher crosses a torrent, after that slightly ascends and then brings us to the spot, where it ends. Ahead we cross the bridge and we continue on a cart track which is moderately ascending on a partly overgrown scree. Cart track makes few sharp turns and brings us from northern slopes of Košuta on the southern slopes of Košutica.
Further, we are mostly ascending through the forest, which brings us on a larger clearing. Here cart the track goes sharply left and is ascending towards the mountain pasture Korošica. A little before the mountain pasture we cross a grazing fence, where a beautiful view opens up. From the meadow we go slightly right below the cottage, which we see above us. The path then turns left and in few steps of ascent brings us to the cottage on the mountain pasture Korošica.
From the mountain hut, we go right in the direction of Veliki vrh towards the saddle Hajnževo sedlo. The path ahead crosses slopes of Košutica mostly in a gentle ascent through a thinner forest. This path, with increasingly beautiful views we follow to the saddle Hajnževo sedlo, where joins the path from Austria.
On the saddle, we go left and we start quite steeply ascending (right Veliki vrh). At first, we are ascending on the Slovenian side of the ridge by dwarf pines, then path runs for some time on a slightly exposed ridge. Next follows a shorter ascent on the Austrian side with the help of steel cables and we soon come on the secondary peak. From the secondary peak then with the help of steel cables we few meters descend and immediately after this we again steeply ascend to the top on which there is also an inscription book.
The starting point - Korošica 1:35, Korošica - Košutica 1:15.
On the way: Planina Korošica (1554m), Hajnževo sedlo (1701m)
