- Description
-
The hike first leads from Kranjska Gora to Lake Jasna, where the huge walls of the surrounding mountains are reflected in the crystal-clear water. From the lake, the trail leads deeper into the Krnica valley to the hut with the same name, always accompanied by the Pišnica stream and the mighty mountains of the Julian Alps.
- Directions
-
Starting from the parking area of the local mountain railway, you walk comfortably towards the center of Kranjska Gora and turn right at the height of the Hotel Razor. Follow the road "Josipa Ticarja" until it joins the "Vrsiska cesta" (Vrisic pass road) and follows the river Pišnica to the Lake Jasna. On the right bank of the lake, the path leads to its end. After a few minutes on the Vrsiska cesta, you will reach the fork leading to Koča v Krnici. On the wide gravel road and in the first half along the stream you will reach the Planina v Klinu and half an hour later the hut.The way back is via the same route or from the hut over the more beautiful forest trail to the junction at the Planina v Klinu. Here you can take a path west of the brook towards Lake Jasna. This way leads twice to the Vrisic pass road, before we again reach the lake. From here you can also take a path east of the small brook to get back to the center.
