Kofce Gora

Today despite a slightly worse weather forecast I visited this peak above Kofce planina. Snow was hard and not icy. Track was snowed over in some places. Strong wind was blowing on the top. Few visitors to the peak but quite a few reach the hut.

Today three colleagues decided for Kofce gora. When we reached the hut on Planina Kofce, we quenched our thirst, prepared gear and headed to Kofce gora. At first foggy, around 1800 m sunny. As for the path, it was first trodden, then we continued on the ski track of ski tourers, under the summit we ourselves broke trail over the ridge to the top. When one goes all follow, so quite a few of us on Kofce gora summit. Also on return others followed our tracks. As for avalanches, no panic.

Hi! I don't know, nothing was trodden so we didn't decide for Veliki vrh. We already broke trail to Kofce gora. Bye!.

Today from Matizovec to Planina Kofce and along ridge to Kofce peak. Planned Veliki vrh too but strong wind gusts and poorly trodden path stopped me. Quite cold but cloudless, wonderful views.

I was also there with the group today on Kofce Mountain but then we continued to Veliki vrh because six ahead of us had nicely trodden it. Wind was really strong but the rest was dreamy.

Yesterday I started from Dolina. The steep and icy-in-places path to Kal is much more snow-free than a good week ago. Further towards Kofce, the path is snow-covered all the way, gaiters not needed yet. Further the story changes. Above the cross, crampons joined the gaiters and the ascent to Košuta began. The Kofce gora ridge with a narrow, barely trodden path leads to the summit; great caution is needed. Towards Veliki vrh, the ridge path is still not trodden, to Kladivo though.

On Wednesday, when mountains after the last rain flood were freshly whitened, I ascended the more inviting ridge of Kofce gora.
Above 1300m there was some powder, higher up around 10cm. Slightly frozen and compact, it was pleasant for walking with some ice here and there, which did not disturb. On the intermediate ridge, our military helicopter flew low past me when I equipped myself with helmet and ice axe. I ascended without crampons with checked steps due to ice, for the descent I then put on crampons. The ridge to Veliki vrh was windblown and problematic due to slope and safe walking with crampons would take too much time, so I decided for descent to Kofce. On the top in the afternoon strong wind from NE started blowing, so the colleague from Veliki vrh quickly caught up with me at the cross on the bench above Kofce. Beautiful fast and solitary tour to heights with winter touch.nasmeh

Sunday morning hinted at a nice day, but only when approaching Tržič did we see how clear it was. We drive towards Kofce, then on foot right to pl. Šija and up the slope to Kladivo. Incredibly warm, like last November, under us a sea of clouds covering Lj. & Gorenjska basin. We met some hikers, on the top of Kladivo alone. Also surrounding peaks towards Košutnik turn were deserted. We have time, so we enjoy views to Triglav and far into sunny Austria. Descent to M. Kladivo and on to Kofce gora, on the ridge a cold SE wind accompanies us, but quickly over and then only late-afternoon lunch on Kofce, which was excellent. Nothing beats jota and štruklji..nasmeh

The trail to Kofce gora is well trodden, by noon it had softened and slush was forming. With my daughter we continued to Kladivo, where it was more wind-packed and therefore even more pleasant for walking, of course with crampons. On the way back we didn't descend directly down the snowy slope due to avalanches, just in case. We went back the same trail nicely. No people on Kladivo, quite a few on Veliki vrh.

On granddaughter's wish to conquer Malo and Veliko Kladivo we started early morning from Mrzli studenec towards Kofce. Looked nice, but towards top of Kofce gora more foggy and windy, so turned at Kofce gora and headed to pasture for struklji. Stopped also in Dolžanova soteska and went to small tunnel and hamlet at Jame. Next time more luck. Road to Mrzli studenec fairly good condition.

First praise for Lara, it's not even half past eight yet and already so high in the fog.
Struklji at Perot on Kofce are of course awesome.

Start at parking coldish, under Matizovcem already undressing. To Kofce meet some hikers, two returned from Kofce gora. At hut bliss, warm & windless. Chat with friendly hutkeeper who came to heat it for weekend when open again. Continue to cross, spot two below Kofce gora summit. We stop, our nearly 12yo dog enough & enjoy fantastic Košuta panorama. Day for gods, no cloud. Hikers go to V.vrh, seems late & indeed turn back down summer path. Snow for skiing still too little, needs new shipment..nasmeh

Today used beautiful day for visit to Kofce gora. Upper trail section along ridge needs more caution (ice axe and crampons). Summit windy, views wonderful, quite a few mates. Nice greetings.
