Žlan - Črna prst

Access to starting point:
From highway Ljubljana - Jesenice we go to the exit Lesce and follow the road towards Bled and forward towards Bohinjska Bistrica. From Bohinjska Bistrica we continue right towards Ribčev Laz and Lake Bohinj. In the village Polje we turn left towards the village Žlan. We drive through Žlan on the main asphalt road and at the end of the village 300 meters on a macadam road. We come to a smaller parking lot, where we park the car.

Path description:
From the parking lot, we go further on the bottom macadam path, which already after few meters passes into a footpath, by which stands sign for Črna prst. We follow marked footpath to first cart track, where we turn right. We continue to Rovt Repar and past the hunting cottage and observatory, where the cart track passes into a footpath, whereupon we descend in hollow at the source of Bistrica. We continue over a wooden bridge and then left on a cart track towards Bohinjska Bistrica. If after a crossing of the bridge we turn right we come to the source of Bistrica (approx 25 meters). At the crossroad of cart tracks we go right (left path runs in Bohinjska Bistrica) and then we follow unmarked path on an overgrown cart track uphill. Cart track several times sharply turns, which shouldn't confuse us. On longer walk we come to better, marked macadam road, where we go right. Soon blazes point us to the left uphill on a little wider footpath which we follow to the mountain pasture Osredki. We need to pay attention to blazes, because in some parts they are poorly visible! From here ahead we follow a poorly beaten steep marked path to a small saddle in sharp ridge Kozji rog. Here the path is ascending to the left and already after few minutes we are at the mountain hut Dom Zorka Jelinčiča na Črni prsti.
