If we went to Grintovec on Saturday could we sleep at Cojzova hut on Kokrsko sedlo (if open) and next day to Skuto and Struco?
I think there would be space for three people in Češka koča???

On Saturday 16.6. we went up Grintovec via Frischauf path. Path very nice, not too demanding (protection where needed), morning in shade  . We had via ferrata kit but used very little, only on ridge. Helmet essential as path very crumbly. Before wall entry one larger snowfield but very gentle, also some smaller on path no issue. Planned return via Kremžar path but on scree between Grintovec and Jezersko Kočna huge snowfield, crossing without winter gear too dangerous so turned back via Frischauf path.
Really great ascent and phenomenal summit views

@funnyboy sorry, no pics, but that snowfield I think is on that scree - anyway long and steep.

viharnik, nice pics as always. For me, only the path to Grintavec via Dolge stene remains; I've done all other approaches already. This week I was looking for access to Spodnje Dolce from Suhega Dola, but couldn't find it. Before turning to Taško you turn left, but I searched in vain for the right path. Every track or forest path led me to the cliffs of Taška and ended under the rocks. I must have walked those tracks for a good hour. It's an old abandoned path that goes past the cliff of Suhadolnik's shepherd. Have you been there? The Dolci with the bivouac under Kočna are very appealing to me and I like going there.

I went to Dolce only via the old hunting path that branches off at the former old Frishauf hut. There is also a lower crossing to Dolce where I haven't been. I think the path goes much more to the left than the one over Taško. The pathless traverse under Cojzova hut at ~1600m over Pasja glava directly to the ridge of Kalške gore is also good but steep, but only in dry conditions (steep grass, only possible passage through scrub to the left, rocky gravel upper slopes).

From Konc - Grintovec (via Kokrsko and Mlinarsko sedlo)
Hello, I would ask for info regarding the mentioned path in terms of difficulty. Last week I was on Storžič through Žrelo and it didn't seem particularly demanding to me. Somehow I don't feel like going over the roof, because it seems to me that then the mountain loses its charm and grandeur, if you understand what I mean. Thanks for the info

I completely agree with you about more mountaineering approaches to the mountain.
The path via Pavla Kemperla bivouac and Mlinarsko sedlo to Grintovec summit is very nice, more varied less hot with just a few harder sections on the ridge of Mali Grintovec, which cause no worries because it's well secured. Walking time is longer by approx 1h30min than the direct southern path. Frišen's description of the same route tour is under KSA.

Let me add something: already on the normal path from KB you have around 1650m elevation gain, but if you go via Mlinarsko sedlo you lose some 150m down from Mala vrata, plus a bit on the ridge, totaling more than 1800m climbed, if you don't dare drive right to the cable car then even more. In short, serious and stamina-demanding tour. Technically not very demanding, about Žrelo level, maybe a bit harder only because you have to downclimb some slightly harder spots. But yeah, the last cable is five minutes below the summit and by then - after the whole path done - you're pretty knackered. But still - nice tour, if you're reasonably fit also stamina-wise, I recommend.
And one more: it's nice when Grintovec is full of people panting up from the south, and you come towards them from the north ... Feels good

Dear mountaineer friends, what is the situation with driving by car from Kamniška Bistrica to the cable car factory, is driving allowed or not?

Formally no, and there have already been cases of fining parked cars. But still most people go ... (although, the last ascent is in very bad condition, if you go anyway I recommend leaving the car at Žagane peči).
But an even better option is not to go to Kamniška Bistrica at all (the road to Kokrsko sedlo is, honestly, a living horror) and start the ascent at Suhadolnik. The path is much nicer and more or less the same length, and with parking at least as far as I know there are no problems ...

The road to the goods cable car at Kokrsko sedlo has been repaired.
