Since the registrations filled up so quickly I'd tackle the trail another time. Wondering if the trail is well marked? How much fluid on average do you need to carry for 64km tour? How much elevation gain? How many hours on average walking at a pace where you can still talk? Thanks.

You can still go along, just no entitlement to gift bag and meals (coupons).
Path mostly well marked (bear paw), just some parts need more attention - if no mark for a couple of minutes, you've missed somewhere. Otherwise almost 2,000m elevation, around 14h halftime elimination and bus to Kočevje. Conversational pace about 13-14h walking, 5.4km/h pace around 12h, if it helps.

Parking lots directly at or near the lake, can't miss. Organization really good in all respects.

No need for much liquid. There is drink at all stations plus some unofficial station in between.

Drinks only when organized, otherwise more of a problem, or carry what you need for 64km, 12-14h walking and 2200m elevation. Houses where you could get some only in Rajhenav and then just before finish, last 15-10km

Julius, I don't understand your comment, what does it refer to?

In my opinion his post belongs under the thread Krma, Kot, where PZS is discussed among other things.

Hi, I'm interested in the other trail that's 36 km but is it a demanding trail or is there a flatter trail because I don't like too much climbing or do you need enough fitness? When to register so it's not full for next year?

The route has around 850 elevation meters, you have to register pretty soon after opening of registrations. This year they went in a couple hours, but can do something afterwards (buy registration) via social networks.

Hi,
I think you're a bit off about the elevations. Are you talking about the shorter or longer route? I did 64km last year and Garmin recorded 2184 elevation meters.

It's as mentioned above about the shorter route. And that has 840 elevation meters.

Hm, Mapy.cz are known to be modest in measuring elevation meters, but for me they did not measure 1200? link
Ugh, this digitalization

This time I take you on the shorter variant of the famous endurance hike In the Footsteps of the Bears. I combined bike and hiking shoes to show you a good part of this trail and the wild, pristine world of Kočevski Rog.
