Langusov hrib

The overture happened yesterday evening when I received an invitation for a really nice tour, but I couldn't respond to it for objective reasons. zadrega Still, this morning I jumped on a short exploratory.
Starting point in Draga. I follow blazes for a few minutes towards Prevala pasture. I leave them at the first right tributary of Begunjščica stream and pick up the hinted pathlet towards Langus Hill ridge. From initial vague pathlet it soon becomes well and easily followable - it lured me, so I follow it to one of its ends (before end it splits into two paths; I chose right), turn left uphill and head into pathless exploring. Before ridge I hit blazes marking path from Koča na Dobrči to Prevala pasture. I follow them until Langus Hill ridge reveals on left, which I follow back to valley. First part (top down) gentle, later terrain more rocky, more pristine. In last ridge part I descend to slope again and return to start via hunter's trail.

It was nice and interesting. nasmeh
Regarding wilderness and wild... first time over water successful, second too and always so, until one stone turned and foot sank ankle-deep in cold water. mrk pogled Slogging back to the car, change into old shoes and repeat. If you hit right, only twice over water, maybe in drier periods only once.
Second time wild when in middle of bush-bush I hear crashing. No war dances, just some battle cries that were more scared came out of my mouth. zadrega zavijanje z očmi

I think guys on bikes can do lots downhill, so no cutting brush, otherwise someone knowledgeable might really tackle thisnasmeh when I saw what colleague rode down, I always held my head... Otherwise great post, we'll drop by sometime in these parts of Slovenia. lp

On Sunday I set off along Langus Hill and later along the less pronounced parallel forest ridge between it and Kisovec (Praprotnikov hrib) to the marked path between Prevala and Dobrča, and descended along the Kisovec ridge.

I pushed through to the Langus Hill ridge at a similar spot, but a bit harder than Palček - but a nicely followable path leads along it. Access to the ridge is possible even higher, also from the direction of the marked path to Prevala, as another path leads to it from there. Later, near the already third hunter's hide by the path, I did not head towards the Langus Hill ridge, where a path branches off, but descended to the stream, crossed it and started ascending eastwards to the side ridge of Čisovca or Šobrovi čere. Occasionally I found nicely trodden pathlets, but likely game trails. The terrain is passable - except slopes of the type "what did I get myself into this for" - as there is practically no low growth (bushes) in this part, and all more demanding sections could be avoided towards the previously mentioned marked path.

I did not linger at the blazes for long, as - towards Dobrča - I first descended over a hundred height meters beside them and then near Vrh Luž found a path to the nearby hunter's hut, where I rested.

After a short rest with "musical" accompaniment, first of the Slovenian army, then also two enduro bikers on the neighbouring Vrh Gač ridge, I headed down the Kisovec ridge. The forest path crosses somewhat demanding rocky terrain several times (similar to Vrh Gač and Brezniških pečeh), but no problems. Soon I reached the top of Kisovec - from where a shorter descent southwards to the logging road is possible along an indistinct ridgelet and later down to the road in the Črni potok valley. One can descend to the mentioned road already from the hunter's hut, but the path is quite muddy, which is annoying due to occasional steepness, but with less orientation trouble… I continued down the Kisovec ridge, where I lost the path just before the final steep section and later descended a pathless steep gully to the house near Gostišče Draga. For a "normaller" descent I should have stuck to the ridgelet in the SW direction..
Before the final descent it is possible to visit the viewpoint knob on the northern side of the ridge, under which a tin chamois used to stand, nicely visible from Dom v Dragi.

Weather was nice, forest temperatures pleasant, ticks quite a few nasmeh

Great. From the first post or since I know of this hill, I always remember the cult Slovenian film with Boris Cavazza in the lead role. Gotta go up there once, no other way nasmeh
