From Kranjska Gora, we head west along the cycling path toward Rateče and onward to the border crossing with Italy. Once we cross the border, just under two kilometres later, we reach a crossroads where a sign points us toward the Fusine Lakes (Laghi di Fusine). Our route winds through the forest, bringing us to the village of Scicchizza, where we join the main asphalt road leading toward the lakes. A fairly steep kilometre-long climb gets us up to the first of the lakes and, after catching our breath, we push on a bit more before descending to the second Fusine Lake.
From here, we can continue straight past the Zacchi Refuge.
