Trail no. 5

From the main square in Cerkno, we head towards Novaki, in the direction of the Cerkno Ski Centre. Follow the asphalt road for 4 kilometres, passing the junction for the Franja Partisan Hospital, and after an easier climb you will arrive at Dolenji Novaki. Climb through the village for a kilometre and a half, turn right at a sharp left turn in the direction of Kopačnica, pass the apartment building and turn right over a small bridge on the asphalt road up into the forest. You ascend to the hamlet of Mrovljev grič, where you turn right at the crossroads for Podpleče–Hotavlje and continue along the asphalt path that leads through the forest down into the valley. When you come out of the forest, turn right at the first house. Here the path starts to climb up to the “Vrh Ulce” saddle, where the continuing asphalt path turns downhill. Surrounded by nature, descend towards Planina pri Cerknem. At the junction with the Cerkno–Škofja Loka main national road, turn right towards Cerkno. Follow the main road back to the starting point – the Main Square in Cerkno, accompanied by beautiful views through the village of Čeplez.
