From Bled we drive towards Lake Bohinj. After the village of Laški Rovt, a forest road turns off to the left. The macadam road immediately turns into a forest and climbs past the Laški Rovt Taboršiška area. The road (worse in some parts) climbs steeply for 6 km as the road branches off to the right (starting point for Vogel) and we continue straight ahead and soon reach a left turn. Park at a suitable place and follow the signs to get to Mt Suha.

The path climbs steeply at the start alongside a torrent, which it then joins. Soon the path turns to the right and levels off. The path then climbs again over a steep slope. After a good hour's walk, the trail leads to Mount Suha. From the mountain, continue past the mountain hut along a clearly visible path. Soon the path begins to climb steeply up the slope, which is partly covered with pine trees. There are clearly visible markings along the way. Higher up, the scrub runs out and the path passes to a sink below the saddle Čez Suho. The path goes around it on the left and soon leads to a crossroads at the saddle. Here stands an old military bunker with signposts. Along the way we will see a huge number of Planik. From the bunker, turn left onto a wide, grassy ridge. The scenic route soon leads to the top of Rodica.
