From Ljubljana, take the motorway towards Gorenjska. Take the exit for Jesenice Zahod and turn left towards Kranjska Gora. Before the village of Dovje, turn left towards Mojstrana and follow the road a little further to the left again towards the Krma and Kot valleys. Radovna turn right onto the macadam road and continue along it for a longer distance, following the signs for the two valleys. Pass the Kovinarska hut and continue on to a large car park, where you park.

Continue on foot past the wooden lock along a slightly wider forest path, which is initially flat, but soon begins to climb moderately. After the first climb, the path leaves the forest, after which we have wonderful views of the high mountains. Continue along the ascending path, which first crosses a small meadow and shortly afterwards a larger clearing, after which the path begins to climb more steeply. The steep ascent is followed by another steep climb, crossing a wooden hut in the middle. Shortly after the cottage, you will reach a fork where you turn left towards Kurica. After the fork, the path becomes even steeper and a bit more difficult, as you have to climb up a rocky area. After crossing the more difficult part, the path straightens out and continues past the heath to the next crossroads, at which you turn right towards Kredarić. In a zigzag pattern, the path begins to climb moderately on the rough terrain all the way to Kredarica.
