Yeah, these are old paths, probably also possible that before the first, for groups of soldiers they used mules, otherwise in winter time when carrying hand weapons and other stuff needed for survival

ales5023. 11. 2011 17:42:10

I think they carried ammo and wood, and such things by hand to the top

Thanks to both. Yeah, today it's hard to imagine how tough it was back then with that time's equipment... mrk pogled

Yeah, I also can hardly imagine it, and lightning killed a couple of soldiers when from Kluž up the iron stairs they carried load, then even on the path Italian artillery didn't rest, but nature won, nasmeh

The slaughter ended and nature overgrew all traces, only remnants defy time

What are the snow conditions like on Rombon / to Rombon, from Kluž or from Zavrzelno? Thanks for answers.

I'm interested in what the conditions are like now on the path to Kote 1313 from Kluž.

Today I set off for Rombon. I drove by car to 6 km distant Kluž where I left the car and started my today's tour. The trail from start to end is nicely marked and practically without snow except individual serpentines toward the top, which are without problems. At the top nice views, but quite cold, as a strong wind was blowing. Trail back to the junction of three trails at the saddle and I chose the trail through the gully, which is still quite snowy. In the middle of the gully it has already been broken through, otherwise quite good. Descent of the gully with winter gear. I also stopped at Čukla, which is without snow, then to Goričica and then descent to Zavrzelno. Really nice tour, beautiful weather also added its own touch.

Actually we planned to reach Planina Pecol, but yesterday 19.07. at Rabeljsko jezero we ran into a complete road closure towards Sella Nevei eek

. So we descended via Predel to Kluž, where we left the car and headed to Rombon.
The newly marked trail to Rombon starts through a tunnel, where we lit our way with a light (on the return lights shine inside).
Almost half the trail goes through the forest, so there are no special views. A few meters below Kote 1313 there is a nice viewpoint to Loška Koritnica, at Kote 1313 towards Bovec.
Above 1500m finally out of the forest, but again no views as fogs kept rolling zmeden

. Towards the summit even worse. The trail passes many ruins of the 1st World War. But it is well marked and there were no orientation problems even in the fog.
Some 250 m below the summit there is a small rock step, which is not too demanding and short.
The summit revealed itself to us only once, then we waited on the top for a good two hours. Well, who waits obtains; the fogs started to thin, neighboring peaks cleared and finally it completely cleared up nasmeh

.
Back on the same trail, where we took quite a few photos.
The trail is long. Usually we don't measure time but yesterday together with the visit to Fort Herman and Kote 1313 we needed almost 5 hours.
Well, when you get home you always realize that it was worth it nasmeh

Hi, you had quite bad weather, but up there the weather is so changeable continuously; it's really nice in sunny weather when peaks and surroundings reveal themselves where you have lots to see.
