Yesterday of course I wasn't home. Since club trips were canceled due to bad weather I decided to revisit Konj with nearby planinas Rzenik and Dol. Went on the path Pred Belo. Due to light rain I dressed in rain gear. Halfway the drizzle stopped, found myself in thick fog. Higher up the fog cleared. Arrived at saddle Presedljaj in sunshine. Made a beautiful day. Looks like it didn't rain up here at all. Then to Konj. Climbed here years ago. Rock was dry, protections flawless. Helmet obligatory, climbing gloves welcome. Less experienced must use safety gear. Steel cables aplenty. Somehow in under an hour at the top. Summit really not 2000er, but still 1803 m. Overcame 1232 m elevation from start. To the left rocky Rzenik. Up only pathless. All around high mountains, views excellent. Then descent to planina Rzenik and planina Dol and along marked path to lower station of gondola.
Fog halfway along the path, to cut through it.1
Somewhere halfway we can rest. To the saddle Presdljaja we have two and a half hours.2
The fog has lifted, the valley still has it.3
I already spot Konj -left and Rzenik -right.4
At the top of saddle Presedljaj. To here we walked two and a half hours, here we go right, the left path continues to planina Korošica.5
Now onto the path towards the cliffs of Konj.6
Into the rocky terrain of Konj. This path is not for everyone. The rock was dry. Excellent training for say Rjavini or Vrbanove špice, just a bit far.7
Immediately a secured path begins. Then a fun path follows to the most difficult part.8
A path leads through here.9

Of the last few days, yesterday's was the least nice in terms of weather. There were plenty of clouds (changes between sunny and cloudy weather), it was windy too, but still totally fine weather for the hills.
The road to Planina Dol won't be passable for quite a while, but soon to Ušivcu. Currently (with summer tires) up to about halfway between the quarry and Ušivcu, there's also a spot to turn and park 3-4 cars.
To Dol on foot along the road then. There's still quite a lot of snow in the gullies, sink deep occasionally. On the sun it melts very fast (difference between morning and afternoon was visible). Real spring at Dol, path to Konj still dry for some time. Snow starts around 1500m and there's quite a bit soon.
From Mlakarjeva bajta to the top a track is made, going through scree in a few spots. Snow holds partly, breaks through partly. Snowshoes useful here of course, but doable without. We were without, so progress wasn't lightning quick. Descent much easier. Most annoying was the re-climb up the road from Dol to the car of course.

A gloomy morning first led us to the partisan hospital and Orličje, then over Presedljaj to Konj.
We descended to Planina Dol and via Martinj path to Bela valley.
Ice axe mandatory for ascent from Presedljaj for some time yet.

Today after work to Konj. Wonderful sunny weather, too warm for the season. From Presedljaj strong gusty wind. Conditions changed a lot from the post above. Late hour today and warm sun softened snow so that garmont's pic 4 snowfield passable without ice axe or crampons. I went around lower side, lots of sand on rocks. All wired sections ahead dry and bare. Biggest hazard water under snow, never know snow depth. Returned same way. Lp Miro

Similar to what Miro writes, went in the afternoon. Wind gusts so strong I didn't even step on the ridge as I doubt I'd stand long. Mostly sunny and too warm. A little below bench met one hiker already descending and below on path to waterfall some tourists.

Hi, I have a question. I'm thinking about a trip to Konj tomorrow. The website describes different paths, some marked as easy, but looking at the pictures it looks like a lot of climbing. What does the path from Planina Dol look like - the shortest.

What about the drive to the parking lot and is the starting path possibly interesting?

Is the path suitable or partially suitable for a larger dog? I have no equipment.

Thank you very much!

If you mean the parking lot in Kamniška Bistrica, only one path is marked and suitable for a dog. (2.)
There is no significant time and elevation difference, only
the 2nd variant is more strenuous...

1. Ušivec parking (Črnivec, Kranjski rak..) - Zeleni rob - Konjščica - Dol - Konj: huts, sun
2. Kraljev hrib - Dol - Konj: shade, quiet, ascent

I prefer to go with the dog on the Martinj path to Dol, but a shorter section is exposed, possibly also weather questionable. (hunter's path)

Definitely the first variant is the nicest and especially sunny. Ascent Dol-Konj is OK for the dog. You can also drive by car to planina Dol.

Today to Konj via Martinj path to planina Dol. In the upper part the path is frozen and covered with leaves, so caution is not superfluous. There are no special features from Dol to the summit, the descent towards Presedljaj can be frozen in the early hours. No snow. Path from Presedljaj to the valley without special features, but it drags on.

As I saw, no one has gone from the Presedljaj direction yet. All covered with snow.
