Access:
On the motorway we go towards Gorenjska region, towards Jesenice until the exit Lesce.  From here we continue towards and through Bled, we pass the settlement Mlino, till the crossroads (intersection), where we turn right (left route would take us to Bohinj). The road begins to descend towards the lake (Njivice), from here we follow the path leading us along the lake towards Zaka. Before Velika Zaka (here is the finish line for boat-races) we notice on the left a gravel road with signs. When we turn on this route we park correctly.

From here we take the gravel road going that leads us into a clearing and continues as a walkway. After a few minutes of walk we enter the forest, where the road becomes wide, well trodden and going uphill. We continue until the road starts to part, following the direction board, we take the right route toward Ojstrica (if we go straight ahead we will go towards Osojnica). After a few minutes of steep and gravelled path we reach the summit of Ojstrica. Here there is a bench and a beautiful view waiting for us.
