Sella Nevea - Punta Plagnis (unmarked mule track)

Access to starting point:
A) Over the border crossing Rateče we drive to Trbiž / Tarvisio. Right before Trbiž we turn left towards Predel or Bovec and the road we follow to a crossroad before lake Rabeljsko jezero. Here we continue here right towards the saddle with nice Slovenian name Na Žlebeh, which Italians translated to Sella Nevea. On the saddle, we can park on a macadam parking lot below smaller ski slope on the right, Viš side.
B) From Bovec over Predel we descend on the Italian side. Only a little after the lake Rabeljsko jezero at the crossroad we continue left towards Sella Nevea / Na Žlebeh.
C) Possible is also access through the valley Reklanica from Kluže / Chiusaforte (settlement on the road Videm - Trbiž).

Path description:
By the road, we will notice more signposts, which mark path 625 towards the mountain hut Corsi. We ascend by the ski slope on a poorly beaten footpath which brings us to a macadam road which is ascending on the right side of the ski slope. For some time we are then ascending on the road, and then blazes point us to the left in the forest. After a short ascent, we come to a crossroad, where we continue right on the path 625, and left path branches off towards the mountain pasture Krni dol / Cragnedul and forward towards Pecol and mountain hut Brazza. The path is then still ascending through the forest and few times crosses a mountain road and it brings us to a crossroad, where another path, which runs towards the mountain hut Brazza branches off to the left. At the altitude 1610 meters we run into ruins. Here we leave the marked path 625, which runs right further towards the saddle Passo degli Scalini (2022 meters), and we follow a well-beaten path – mule track to slopes below Špik nad Špranjo / Modeon del Buinz. Unmarked path gently zig-zags over grassy slopes, where in the summer is real heaven for lovers of flowers and photographers, and usually there is also a lot of ibexes. Mule track brings us right below 2351 meters high Vrh Krnega Dola, which Italians translated into Monte Cregnedul, crosses ridge and next to it by remains of military structures brings us to the summit. Right below the summit there is cavern with a view on Koštrunove špice and Viš, and next to it in easy climbing in few minutes we reach the peak. There is a bigger cairn. We continue on a mule track to distinct notch, where from the notch Škrbina Prednje Špranje show up blazes of the secured path Ceria Merlone. We follow the path (and wire) to the left on an exposed ledge, around the upper building of Špica v Planji, on which we climb on diverse terrain. On the summit is bigger cairn on concrete base. Both ascents to the summit are for a level harder as a walk on partly rough mule track.
The starting point – Vrh Krnega dola 4h; Vrh Krnega dola – Špica v Planji 30 min.

On the way: Planina Krni dol/Casera Cregnedul di sopra (1515m), ruševine (1610m), Vrh Krnega Dola/Monte Cregnedul (2351m)
