Volk.. what's the path like... does it sink in a lot or can you manage without snowshoes?
Where did you go to Kališče from? From Mač?
Thanks

ursa2212, path to Kališče from Mač well trodden, further to Bašelj Peak quite difficult walking in deep footprints.
Regards.

Ursa, time is however a very relative matter.

Today there were no footprints except the first 30m from the hut...further only snowdrifts and windblown snow.
We soon realized that the mission would be impossible before work...and also very cold and windy "ornk" winter conditions. Every third step was sinking to the butt, in between to the knees...I don't remember so much snow at the beginning of December

How does the parking in Mač look? Pretty snowy, or can one park?

The parking lot is arranged and without issues, but it is true that it was very full today...

Again after work. It is worth every step of rushing to catch the departing sun. Sadly, in the icy windy breakthrough, the soul disconnects only with difficulty. But still. When the sense in the cold numbs, it boils from the fresh depth ...
All the best.

After many years from Mač to Kališče. Path nicely routed, dry, except last part some ice, better use crampons. Given over 900 ascents, bit surprised by 1:30 mark...sure for young hikers ok, for average probably not. Short stop at hut and on to Bašelj Peak, first time, beautiful. Snow-covered but not frozen, path well trodden. Views super, left Storžič, right Mali Grintovec, Krvavec. On summit also view to Košuta, Obir. Descent to valley, teloh already nicely blooming. Total 1,200 ascents, 16 km. Good hike, good group...

From there where your first pic was taken, no more 900 ascents to Kališče, so time on sign quite appropriate.

Regarding times, I've learned that there's no sense in looking at these timetables, since quite often on the signs the entries are really ridiculous, ...
From the last jaunt around Lisca, timetables on signs, no comment, maybe someone was dreaming while writing them ...
LP!

To Kališče a real shower from the trees, to Bašelj Saddle baking hot ...
From the saddle to Bašelj Peak, sun slowly clouded over. Moments on the bench outweigh everything.
Descent to Suha Valley.
All nice.

Mače - Kališče - Bašelj Peak
Up to Kališče packed snow, suitable for crampons, then snow already deeper, but super trodden, fantastic weather.
Last ridge (10 meters) a bit more carefully, but good track allows safe passage.

Today summer in winter.
From Mače via Kozjek then towards Suha Valley. Attempt via upper part of valley to Mačenski Saddle failed due to more snow than anticipated, non-existent track and unsuitable gear for mentioned combination.
So further via Kališče (hut was open) and then back on classic marked path.
Day perfect, mists beaten by 10 min.

To a well-visited peak one also goes exploratively and solitarily.
Pantharej, I thank you for the description of the path that today found itself among the traversed ones. If I did not hike it everywhere orthodoxly, but in my own style here and there followed my nose too much, then I ask for corrections.
If anyone else is tempted by the exploration that Pantharej described, let them look here: https://www.hribi.net/trenutne_razmere/slo/storzic_/3/725
At the end of Bašelj I pass by the football and basketball court and the pumptrack along the chamois path by the Belica and along it all the way to the forest road, which I join under Gradišče. Along it to a well-visible path that leads to the peak. Since I have already stood on this old Slavic hillfort from the 5th and 6th century, I do not visit it this time. Rather I sneak onto the path to the left and follow it to the first branch to the right. Something does not smell right to me, so I do not bother with it and so another 2 or 3 times, when finally I turn right I reach the clearing, beyond which a little man awaits me. I zigzag upwards and stop several times on the promontories from which the views are excellent. When a grassy gully appears to the right in front of me, I say half-aloud: "Aha, here the path will run out," and already I bite upwards through the grass. I like open country, but after a while a well-visible path to the right tempts me so much that I turn across 2 gullies into the forest. It was not difficult to traverse, and it would have been even easier if there had not been fallen trees in places. Every now and then I step onto a beautiful path which, alas, disappeared just as it came. Despite the game of hiding paths I zigzag onto the marked path a few dozen meters further east than I left it a week ago. I do not go to Storžič, I cannot with soles with which it would be easier for me in the worn-out Slovenian (PIPS) than in snow. I take it to the right and with unease await the gully that on my previous visit was fatal for all we then met with a friend. We managed to cross it without a scratch, but more by luck than by sense. This time the crossing is a real cat's cough. Diligent hands have made a well-trodden access in/out of the gully on both banks, and at the same time its bottom is covered with much more material, so it is not deep. In continuation I reach a spruce grove with a spring where I was already last time and a few moments higher a strong wind embraces me that howls across Bašelj saddle. Only a few gusts of wind and a little sliding on the snowy path separated me from the namesake peak. Here you are in civilization again. Cyclists appeared who instead of rucksacks were laden with bicycles.
I descended past the house on Kališče and then steeply down the ridge, and a little on the markings, a little without them all the way to the starting point.
