Konj

I was on Konj yesterday. First time through Bela valley and over Presedljaj, where I met two young Slovaks, with whom we then continued to Rzenik and descended to planina Dol. There the two descended to Kamniška Bistrica, I continued to Velika Planina and refreshed with štruklji at Zeleni Rob. Then I returned back to Dol and via Dolski graben alone to the valley. This trail is now excellently marked entirely, only down at the bottom practically already at Kraljev hrib a 5-minute annoyingly overgrown section.

Here I would also like to lie down a bit

Overgrown and unpleasantly muddy final section

Yesterday to Konj from Lučka Bela.

Since first time from there, I deliberately left the car right after macadam start and walked the whole valley. Atmosphere quite wild and lonely, not touristy at all. After joining marked trail, I looked for turn-off to Grofov štant, but this time it stayed hidden. Marked trail at times seemed neglected. At Stare stale I turned to unmarked path leading under Čohalnica to Presedljaj. At start took "lower" path which dropped too much, so back a bit and scrambled over 5m steep scree to the right one. From there trail well followable, second half somewhat technically demanding crossing four gullies. During descent from Konj already raining, worst part endured on Konjščica. On Velika planina among tourists continued to Podvolovjek, but at Seliška planina lost marked trail. Below, 10 min above Selišnik found it again, how I got there better not say so they don't scold me for misleading youth.

Roughly nice hike, first part to Presedljaj solitary, otherwise fitness demanding.

less visible path; where the gully jumps, go right up

rarely shown photo towards the headwall of Lučka bela

at the hayracks I turned towards Čohalnica

arrived at this little basin and descended the path to the left downhill

location of the previous photo, taken from the correct upper path

... descent along the slope left of the ruins and crossing the first gully

about two meters from the signpost at Presedljaj you need to enter this thicket for the descent to the unmarked path described above

the place where I veered onto the marked path below Seliška planina

Nice hike you had, super! The turn-off for Grofov štant is, if I remember right, below the slope in photo 5. If you go up, the trail veers right, slightly back. nasmeh

Good luck!

I had to check the map, what a huge loop you did. mežikanje

Congratulations. nasmeh

Hehe, as long as my legs still carry me, I'm still easily doing firsts.

This is a solitary tour for orientation- and fitness-charged and brave path followers. You really deserve loud applause for the feat! nasmeh

How long did this tour take time-wise? nasmeh

@lino thanks
@Kafetarca in my pace from car to car circa 10h

Today I planned to go from Bela over Presedljaj to Konj, but right before the landslide it's a real tree mess. This last storm felled many trees right before the landslide, where the new path should start, but it's not drawn in apps, so I didn't find it... I climbed over and under some trees but soon gave up, after the landslide I didn't want to bother, so gave up and returned via Orglic and hospital... I'll wait till the path is fixed again...

Kafetarca2. 09. 2023 19:31:42

And that pic you posted, is it where you lost the path?

trdi2. 09. 2023 19:44:08

Up to here I got through the trees, here was still trace of old path, but felled trees and rocks, new one probably more left...

trdi2. 09. 2023 19:44:11

I got to here through the trees, there was still a trace of the old path, but there were fallen trees and rocks, the new one is probably more to the left...

Kafetarca2. 09. 2023 20:17:31

I assume the photo was taken somewhere there where it's marked yellow... that brush on the picture was there already before this year's storms, result of a slide, new path goes left, crosses some gully (or something) over wooden steps.

Or maybe that's all fallen too and now it's completely different... nasmeh

trdi2. 09. 2023 20:40:22

A bit left of this junction to Ladja... I pushed through to there, there really is old undergrowth, but newly fallen from what's marked yellow, because fallen trees still have green leaves...

Kafetarca2. 09. 2023 22:36:41

Then there really was devastation. Shame, because the new path was nicely routed.

Otherwise into the gully right of the waterfall, there leads a path to Kamendol which joins the path leading to the marked trail.
I suggested this to the Domžale people after the landslide, they partially took it into account.
Maybe I'll go to check tomorrow and report. nasmeh

Today I went to check that treefall. Not so bad, ca. 50 m of fallen trees on the path. Mostly you crawl under the trees, the path is roughly visible. Further on it seems there is no problem. For those who know the path over Skok, it is better there and then right along the hunter's path to the marked one.

trdi12. 09. 2023 21:57:31

I followed the predecessors' advice and went to Orglic and along the path towards Skok then along the hunter's path to the new path. Also this gully from Orglic is quite wrecked from the disaster, so I searched a bit for the path over Skok but found it and then all ok to Presedljaj and on to Konj.
