After leaving Terchová, the first landmark is the settlement called Horná Tižina from where there is a rise to the settlement of Káčerov and a slight descent to Skaličanovo. After a left turn you will get on the asphalt road leading to the saddle Lutiška. When there, turn right and continue up to the saddle Nad Melišovcami. After a left turn there is an enjoyable downhill trail through a forest that connects to a gravel road leading to Hájnica Hotel in Horný Vadičov. Continue to the village and approximately in its center there is a signpost where you need to turn left. Your next destination is the ridge above the village of Lysice, near the saddle Jalovec. First, you need to go over the bridge in Vadičov, then turn left and go uphill. After about 250 m bear right. You will get onto a dirt road that leads to the aforementioned ridge. After a while the road begins to descend on the way to Lysica from where you need to get to the center of Belá. Then turn right and go up the village, after about 150 m bear left and go up the hill to the right and immediately after that  turn left again onto a dirt road that leads to the Bránica Valley. Old asphalt road will take you to the intersection  where Bránica Hotel is situated. After a left turn there is the final climb up the hill where the contour line leads through settlements Mažgútovci, Belovci, Podolina and finally to Terchová.
