Yesterday I saw a warning on the trail that the winter trail is closed.
Narcissuses are also fading and it's still nice up there.

But I had a bit of bad luck with weather, at first nice below, Golica top in fog, at hut some sun, some clouds, but fog cleared, so I went to the top. Above Jesenice there was a dark cloud, so I went back down soon enough.

I like going to Golica a lot because it's close, up I always go by different trail.
Yesterday started at fire station (Pl. under Golica) past Fenc, 10 days ago at Cop, through Savske jame, three weeks ago over Jelenkamen, Lenckov Spik, Pusti rovt, last year from Kriz. along the ridge

Beautiful photos!

I myself have a question; I'm interested if anyone knows approximately how much time (roughly) would be needed from Belska planina to Vajnež (probably possible along that path leading from Belska towards Seča all the way to Vajnež? I looked at the Jesenice municipality map where some path is marked)?

Thanks a lot for the answer

Hello!

Has anyone been to Vajnež recently? Interested in conditions, how much snow, are crampons needed?
Thanks

Yesterday I swapped my beloved Karavanke and went to visit Viševnik, first time
The path has no special features, personally I didn't find it strenuous, around 8am the sun was already scorching and the crowd was quite big, especially on the top. But the view makes up for it.
I'll definitely return, since I want to check out Mali Draški vrh too.

On Saturday I went past Belska planina to Struška summit, this time I found the path to the top though I didn't exactly know where I was going
From the hut on the planina to the summit I took about 40 min. First I spotted a rock with a box, then a container. The cross from the picture wasn't there.
At the summit it was whistling, quite cold, suddenly fog started appearing from somewhere, so I better headed back to the planina not to get lost.
To the planina I descended near Mocile.
Nice hike, fun tour, not demanding at all, so I recommend it to everyone who hasn't been up there

Today a sunny day lured me to Golica.
Start from Pustega rovta to the hut, then to the very top.
It was pleasantly warm, occasionally a little wind blew, no crowds.

The road is ok, with car slowly and carefully, it's fine. I left the car several km before the barrier.
I didn't meet the bull on the pasture, he was at the hut on planina D. Rožca, I asked the lady about the bull and she said he can really "charge" sometimes and best to go around him in an arc if you meet him and continue.
I didn't order anything, but probably you can get something to drink, yes.
At Baba summit there's that "independent" stamp, you need the pad of course.
On Hruški vrh I was about 8 years ago, not yesterday

Yesterday I went to Dovška Baba from Raven, along the road and then along the marked path "through" the pasture.
The path was without features, only the sign about the dangerous bull slightly sped up my heartbeat
At Planina Dovška Rožca a friendly lady greeted me and we chatted a bit, then I went further up towards Baba past the cows and the bull (or two bulls).
The path is pleasant, just the wind was really annoying, the view was nice though.
I'll return up there
Only the logbook is already full and I didn't sign inside

We planned down via Zabreska but didn't know exactly where so went via Zirovnica.
Would have managed somehow if rocks weren't wet

Viharnik why do I replace?
Just posted photos and wrote my experience. Was my first time on Stol

Today first time on Stol. From Valvasor started around 5am, via Zirovniska path.
Gotta admit, after comments read here and there, expected harder steeper ascent, but not at all, seemed pleasant hike. Took 3hrs to top. Returned same Zirovniska but don't recommend, rocks stones already wet slippery, knees hurt bad. Two hrs for descent.

Morning gorgeous, nothing better watching morning wake and turn to day. Pity later up fog or clouds.

Yesterday Golica was teeming with people, but it was nice. A bit sunny, a bit cloudy, warm, cold

Well yeah, but it would probably really be better to have someone alongside who knows the path. Unfortunately that day there was no one going up to join them or at least go behind him .
Otherwise I had the same shit with a swarm of flies, but I waved a stick to chase them away

Yesterday I was on Belska planina, it was pleasantly warm, some sun, some clouds, quite a few hikers too.
I intended to go to Struska, but didn't know where
I did ask some people who were up there, they said I could get lost quickly. I went on the path a bit higher and right of the hut towards east, the path runs between bushes and nice view downwards. At the Trilobit view I turned back because I had no idea where I was going Probably I'd need company of someone who knows the path.

But drawing a line, the morning up there was nice

Great photos!
How is it at the very top of Struška? Is it walkable somehow like to Belska - sinking in...? Are crampons needed?

Up to Križevci, from the sign towards Križevci there's a bit of ice and snow, but no big deal, further to Pusti rovta for example I wouldn't go
