We drive to border pass Ljubelj. We turn to left couple of metres before the pass and drive till a parking lot.

From the parking area we get on a pathway, which goes by the left side of a ski slope. After 10 minutes we get to the screes on the edge of ski slope. We go on through the valley upwards and we soon get to the cottage on Vrtača. We go westwards. The path goes between scree and then we get on the roas which we follow to the cottage on Zelenica. When the ski trails are in use, the path goes by the road to Zelenica. Walking on a ski slope is forbidden. From cottage, we go northwards to Vrtača and Stol. The path goes through ski slope and turns left. A small descent follows where we cross the effluxion of valley Suho ruševje. The path goes up slowly through southern slopes of Vrtača. The path soon branches to the right to Vrtača. We continue left towards west through valley V Kožnah where path over saddle Šija join us. The path steppens here and soon takes us to the saddle between both peaks. From here the Prešernova koša cottage is about 5 minutes to the left, but we turn right and after about 10 minutes of a moderate ascent reach the summit.
