Access to starting point:

We drive to Dovje and follow the road all the way upwards through a village. We come to a crossroad oon after the village where a road towards Kepa branches to right and Dovška Baba to left. W orient on the left road and follow it to the next crossroad where we park on a small parking lot by the road.

Path description:

we start at the parking lot and orient on a left road. Road crosses slopes towards West and rises slightly. It crosses some swift ravines and turn to right later. Then a left turn follows and couple of metres behind it a car track branches to right. We orient on this car track nad follow it to the point where it brings us on a mountain pasture (Rovt). We continue straight upwards through a valley. Path quickly leads us into a forest where the path continues on the righ side of the swift. Path is even at first but it soon starts rising steeply and after 20 minutes brings us on a saddle between Planica and Borovje. Here we orient to the most left way which is climbin on side ridge of Planica. Path is quite steep at some places. It leads us through a forest and brings us on a main ridge. Here we orient to left and continue walking on badly beaten path towards West. Path isn't steep anymore and it goes on the ridge and a little bit under it on the South side. When we get closer to the top the ridge becomes more exposed. A gradient towards the top takes us aproximately 2 minutes and is very steep but isn't exposed too much. The whole path is unmarked but the orientation isn't very hard beacuse it goes mostly by the ridge.

On the way: Rovt Vrse (1200m)
