gmirko5. 09. 2012 20:39:49

I'd like to know if there are stamps on Veliki Vrh, Toplar, Kofce Gora, Malo Kladivo and Veliko Kladivo.. thanks

Stamps for the mentioned peaks are in the hut at Kofce.

rjudnic5. 09. 2012 20:45:23

If I remember correctly there are stamps only on Veliki Vrh and Veliko Kladivo.

funnyboy5. 09. 2012 20:56:00

Correct

Let the journey be more animal-tinted this time. The mountains under Košuta are still full, around Kofce almost everything that walks on four legs is grazing, colors are vivid and strong, the air already smells of autumn chill. There was no crowd, sadly no delicious štruklji either. No big deal, my celebration was brilliant, unique and without a single flaw. Everything merged into an unforgettable Abraham's celebration. nasmeh

Kofce, behind Malo and Veliko Kladivo, today's goal

It's nice up here, arranged like from a box, friendly

Towards Kofce hill, the meadow hosts beautiful horses

there towards Očak it poured from the sky

It was lively on Šija, probably the outdoor schools have already started

maybe this one ate štruklji? certainly he was right to rest in the sun at noon

Today we walked a loop: Jelen dol, Kofce, after coffee to Veliki vrh. Then continued to Kosutnikov turn. We descended towards Dolga njiva, from there to pl. Pungrat. There was a snack.
We also debated our descent route to the car, but still descended to Zali potok. As punishment, by road to Jelen dol, then by road along Dolzanke stream to the feeding place where we had the car parked. After a hundred meters driving "flat tire". Night wheel change. Then safely home. Lp.

After 5 km of terrible road yesterday early afternoon I arrive at the starting point for Kofce past the Chapel. I check out the chapel on the way then past the hut head further, past the scenic cross up towards the main ridge. I thought of doing a longer traverse from Veliki vrh to Kladivo but calculate it won't make it before dark.

So I head towards Kofce gora. The path runs partly on exposed ridge, but at the top fog awaits me again. From there I head to both Kladivos. First Malo Kladivo, there I take a short break and snack, then head to the saddle and tackle Veliko Kladivo. During the path the fog clears here and there so I even get views of Kamnik Alps, Storžič, Dobrča,... Occasionally also to the Austrian side. Well, from Veliko Kladivo no view again, but I confirm the stamp presence on this summit too (upper question of one user). mežikanje

Anyway the book is full.

But when I start descending it suddenly clears up properly. I think it's temporary again but it was quite permanent. Good thing, because the path down from Kladivo was a bit harder to follow. From the saddle I don't take the shortcut around Malo Kladivo but climb it again and now enjoy the view to Begunjščica, Stol, Vrtača, Celovec,... and of course Veliki Vrh. For the first time on the way back to Kofce I can see the entire Košuta ridge.

On the way down to Kofce had to watch out for wet rocks. The path, which isn't long, dragged on for me. Finally I reach the gentle pastures and the hut. In the hut I drink tea then already in the dark with headlamp to the car.

When you talk about the road, do you mean the road from Jelendol towards planina Pungrat? I also plan to visit Košuta this autumn, but the totally ruined road doesn't tempt me. Lp.

VanSims30. 09. 2012 22:26:44

It's the same road (in Jelendol at the intersection left - sign for Kofce, Pungrat, Šija,...). Just that after about three km I turned towards Kofce (sign), towards Pungrat probably continue further. Well, already to that intersection the road was quite torn up.

If you don't have a low-clearance car and have reasonably good tires it will go. And of course some skill driving on such terrain. mežikanje

Lunca30. 09. 2012 23:11:17

This road gets worse year by year. However, you can reach planina Pungrat also by another road, from Medvode towards Dolga njiva, then at the first weekend hut to the left... and follow the signs further...

tinky30. 06. 2013 16:01:37

From Mrzli studenec we headed past the chapel to planina Kofce. Since it was still too early, we went straight past to Kofce gora. From there to Veliko kladivo. We returned via Malo kladivo along the ridge to Veliki vrh, on the way back also to Toplar and then along the lower path back to the planina for the obligatory štruklji. In the morning it was very windy along the ridge, so hats, gloves and jackets almost obligatory. Later it cleared up and warmed up quite a bit. There were quite a few hikers, lively in front of the hut.

gorski svizec20. 08. 2013 11:12:27

Can anyone tell how the road from Jelendol to Pungart plain under Kosuta is drivable? Does anyone still choose this starting point? We plan to cross Kosuta ridge from Kladivo to Kosutnikov turn and back lower, any peculiarities on the ridge? Thanks.

Hribovc887. 09. 2013 21:34:48

Today from parking under Matizovec I climbed to Kofce and to Kladivo (locally Kvadu velik nasmeh

). From Kofce onwards very dense fog accompanied me, could cut it with a knife. eek

A light cold breeze blowing all the way, so I didn't stay long on the top. View from the top occasionally reached only to the Austrian side, all the way to Klagenfurt. On return halfway between Kladivo and Kofce sun surprised me, still quite strong, so it was really "comfy" to bask in the sun rays in front of the hut on Kofce. velik nasmeh

After morning thought that today no luck with sun, it turned into a really nice late summer or early autumn day. cool

Since Rožnik for May 1st hasn't been interesting for long, I went from Mrzli studenec, past planina Kofce, along ridge to Kofce gora. Peaks shrouded in fog, but opened at moments, so from Kofce gora via Little Hammer to Great Hammer. On return fog receded slowly, quite pleasant. Back under Little Hammer, crossed ~40m snowfield. Ice axe useful for security feel. Lively at hut as usual. Road from Jelendol to Mrzli studenec fairly good.
