The route begins in Valaská Dubová at the tourist signpost next to the “Valaská Dubová, OcÚ” bus stop. Follow the blue trail leading past the wood carving of the bandit up the hill between the houses, and turn towards the rock cliff behind the municipality when the road forks. Continue along the paved road between the trees and bushes to the meadow. Below the forest there is an educational panel about the “Les” (forest) and to the right of it there is a shelter with seating. The route becomes steeper after entering the forest. After a short climb, we reach a shelter with seating and a well with water. Here the surface changes to gravel and sometimes rock, and we reach a sort of rock gate consisting of rocks on both sides of the trail, from where the slope gets even steeper. The path continues straight up the steep slope to the educational panel about “Fauna”. The route levels off a bit here, then gets steeper again until it leads us to meadows where there is an educational panel about “Flora”. Another important point on the route is the “Stredná Poľana” signpost, from where you can enjoy the views. Now follow the green trail along the edge of the mountain meadow, then turn right onto the summer route. Along the forest trail, we gain the elevation needed to reach the top. We then come out of the forest onto the sloping meadows, which take us to a dwarf mountain pine forest. The trail through the dwarf pines is short but rocky and gravelly. Not far from the top, our trail connects with the red trail, so continue along this to the top and beyond. A tourist signpost sticking out under a rock welcomes us to the peak of Veľký Choč. However, continue a few more metres to the right to the actual peak, where there is a viewing point that helps us identify the surrounding hills and an ascent log in which we can enter some information. The reward for completing the ascent is a beautiful panoramic view in all directions. Veľká Fatra, Malá Fatra, Chočské vrchy, Nízke Tatry, Západné Tatry, Vysoké Tatry, Oravská Magura, Orava, Liptov and much more can be seen from the peak if we are lucky to get good weather.
