Oh, so many positive comments  . Biggest thanks to all and each one individually. We were wandering a bit in the Dolomites and I wasn't up to date with things here for a while. Thanks again, tomorrow follows the last, eighth day of Traversata Carnica.
Emil and Mateja

Mateja and Emil!
A bit late with the comment. So many superlatives have piled up in your posts, I'm speechless.
Safe travels ahead. With you the saying CARPE DIEM (seize the day) really applies!

Emil and Mateja, thanks to both for such detailed description, photos and yes .... if possible for a possible book; can I send email to Marinelli hut owner (cai saf udine) about that rip-off half-board price? Can you tell details via private message.

Thanks Lino . A clarification on spoken language. That's Italian and German depending on the side of the border, and English everywhere. But no worries, basic vocabulary suffices, a phone translator can help too. Hut staff makes great effort, sometimes a guest says a word for better understanding .

Thanks to you too Alessio, especially for the idea . Regarding Marinelli I can tell you how it went and exactly when, but nothing in writing. As mentioned we didn't get a bill, nor a price list.

DAY 8 ...
The last, concluding day has come. Sadly, as many times before. When you get used to walking day after day, this way of traveling gets into your bloodstream. Every change is a small shock for body and soul . Anyway, we left Sillianer-Hütte early in the morning and headed down the valley towards the village of Sillian. There we had a train to Lienz, where we changed to another one to Villach, from there we just caught the international train to Ljubljana. The story ended with our arrival home.
But before that, a lot happened. From the hut, by pure mistake, we chose the road descent into the valley instead of the shorter variant through the forest. We quickly realized that this was very fortunate. For most of the descent, we could observe the consequences of the night's thunderstorm. Fallen trees lay everywhere, the road blocked in many places. Many cars were stuck in the mountains with overnight stays. We even had to cross some fallen trees on foot with difficulty, but luckily we had enough time. In the lower part, we already met teams removing fallen trees from the roads. Commendably fast.
The other story is train tickets. These must be bought at machines or counters wherever they are, but not on the train. There they are 30% more expensive, at least with Austrian conductors. Tested  . But you quickly forget such experiences, not the trail. We'll probably come back, maybe find some different variant .

Thanks to everyone also from my side I hope Emil's trail reports inspire someone else to decide to visit this beautiful trail.
For me it was a big test after knee surgery, everything was very unknown and it could have turned in a less friendly direction for me.
Obviously I have a guardian angel who knows how much mountains mean to me and I will do everything and more, just to continue enjoying this beautiful environment.
There are many mountain souls here, so words are superfluous

Great to see and get excited about this trail. Well, we already know some peaks around.
17 photos, only 50m elevation? Maybe a mistake.
Best regards!

No, no mistake . From the hut to Sillian it's only descent, just a little ascent from the Drava to the town center. Oh, and don't forget climbing over fallen trees .

Well, been to the peaks around the hut and down to the valley, now I understand you meant 50m ascent, down to the valley is a bit more,
Keep enjoying the walking and the walked trail.
Best regards!
