At 8.30 am, Drejc, an experienced guide, will wait for you in front of the Šenk homestead. Please wear comfortable hiking boots, hiking clothing and an anorak. Take a snack and a drink with you. On the way, Drejc will tell you about the Jezersko alpine tradition and his own experience with Češka koča, the importance of sheep breeding and the Jezersko–Solčava sheep. The path will lead you from the alpine pasture Štularjeva planina and further along the rocky trail to the mountain hut Češka koča.
