From Ljubljana, take the motorway towards Gorenjska and exit at the Bohinj/Pokljuka/Bled exit. From here, continue along the road past Bled all the way to Bohinjska Bistrica, where you will head towards Lake Bohinj. Continue past the lake to the Savica Mountain Home, where you park.

From the car park, continue to the right towards the Black Lake and the Cottage at the Triglav Lakes. A dirt path leads over a small wooden bridge into the forest. After only a few hundred metres, a narrower path branches off to the left. The trail immediately starts to climb more easily and after about 20 minutes will lead to a crossroads. The path to the left leads to the Savica waterfall, but we choose the right and continue climbing along the increasingly ascending path, which is also becoming narrower and technically a little more difficult. It also becomes slightly more dangerous in the last part of the climb. When you reach the end of the climb, you will have a wonderful view of the valley and the Savica Mountain Home. Here the path completely lays down and leads us to one of the Triglav Lakes, which we pass on the left hand side. From here on, we continue for a longer time along a relatively flat path through the spruce forest. When the forest ends, a vast meadow opens up in front of us, with the beautiful Double Lake and the Cottage at the Triglav Lakes.
