Itinerary description
Long and difficult trail. Terrain is bad and it is very hard to reach Kupa source on this way. However, if you go you will enjoy in wilderness and Kupa river from the unusual point of view. Last part of track is still trough forest but not for long now as new road is build. There will be still trail trough forest but after that you will need to find it by your self. Track is almoust completely offtrail so be avare and prepare yourself with GPS, map and compass. Be careful and do not walk alone! Enjoy. Use of this track is on your own responsibility. If you are interested to explore off-trails with me, or you are doing this already, let me know to hike together.

:-) difficult one as I recall .... now road is almost completed but still a nice place to be! https://www.wikiloc.com/hiking-trails/source-of-kupa-river-izvor-kupe-3226075/photo-1374372
Yep, everything is about the altitude :)
But that's fine, not so hard even for a family if you take time to have breaks. The all hike is completely safe and secure, just as you noticed, the road to go there is a bit accidented on the end.
And the river is really beautiful ! https://www.wikiloc.com/hiking-trails/source-of-kupa-river-izvor-kupe-3226075/photo-1374372
