Konjiška gora

On 20.12.2012 there wasn't "what there should have been", so on 30.12.2012 return to the northeast part of Konjiška Mountain... called - Source:Čaž. Indistinct summit on Konjiška Mountain that even mighty "Uncle Google" recognizes in only one hit and precisely because of this unrecognizability it interested me. On the way back also a bit below the neighboring summit Babič 749 m.a.s.l. and to the larger cleared area or hunting stand. Descent along the forest road or path between quarries back to Slovenske Konjice.
nasmehYes, Stolpnik, say, would definitely be the right choice today but also something seemingly "obscure" needs to be visited and presented in the broader context of perceiving the space of Konjiška Mountain. Terrain frozen due to northern exposures, temperature below freezing, no wind and really pleasant short hiking activity.

Today I did the path from Konjice over Skala to Stolpnik and back. Since I have been here several times years ago, I was pleasantly surprised today by the new direction signs and newly marked paths. Nice.nasmeh

On Saturday I set off to Konjiška Mountain. Morning start from Konjice. At the beginning I miss the starting point and park at the upper church. So I miss the steep path and go to Skala 'around the ass in the pocket'. Still I can just before the summit descend to the junction where I should have arrived via the steep path and head to the climbing path.

The climbing path surprised me a bit. The hardest seemed to me from the intermediate rest between the pegs to the start of the last series of pegs right before the summit. In addition the pegs and cable were cold so I had to rest from time to time.

At the top nice view of Konjice, not much more visible due to clouds. From Skala I descend back to the road then according to the description from this portal further to Stolpnik. From here on I had no more orientation problems. Past the three crosses I reach a junction and head for the longer path. It takes quite a while to reach Grofov štant. Already on the road there was some frozen snow and from 'štant' onwards too so poles came in handy.

At the top of Stolpnik I meet someone who came from the direction of Črešnjice otherwise on the whole path only another 3-4 hikers. Then I climb up to the tower. The view was again covered by fog. I descend back to 'štant' then on the other side over Kamna Gora make a loop back to the three crosses. On the way back I also look at the castle then back to the car and home.

From Slovenske Konjice medium demanding ascent to Čaž, easier and harder variants remain but for late afternoon quite enough golden middle of difficulty. From Čaž continuation to Golo rebro not demanding, still the activity at end with final ascent above tunnel tubes completely suitable for this portal. Summit offers no views, also drilled tunnel tubes run somewhat more south in W/SW direction…

For return to valley I chose the half-done track from previous days from Škedenj settlement mežikanje mainly because of one interesting surface. You rarely meet this surface in such length as on Konjiška mountain and those are re-laid asphalt pieces removed from somewhere else and already done one life cycle. Interestingly laid pieces of various sizes and shapes, in between filled-grouted with fine gravel, partially joints also overgrown with grass, already almost art of laying and also riding especially downhill is interesting specific unique experience. Nothing, something new and pinch of extra adrenaline. Nice and interesting this extreme east of Konjiška mountain and maybe return in longer combination, today mežikanje only one section of path between Slovenske Konjice - Škedenj...

From Sojek to the south to the adjacent southern ridge of the highest hills and points above Dramlje: connection of the homestead ,,Kumšek,, on Starih Slemenah, the summit above the homestead named ,,X,, is 626 m high and let it be mežikanje ,,Kumš(e)k summit,, Zgornjih Slemen, Straže na gori and 601 m high Zidarične as some kind of antipode to the four somewhat lower ones towards Konjiška gora. Below Zidarične descent via Jankar back to the kartuzija for a circular activity.

Track:Žička kartuzija/circle, 6.10.2013
Paths wet and partially muddy, some showers and light mists, light wind. At the Kumšek homestead also a short chat with the locals about ,,this and that,, a shot of homemade to kill microbes, viruses...mežikanje - nice people... Regards]]>

unfortunately there won't be or perhaps. More sensible in my humble personal opinion is to think about a traverse in the east - west direction... somewhere between/above the Golo rebro tunnel tube on the Maribor side above Žiče and Beli potok at Frankolovo or vice versa. All 18 points and perhaps some more could nicely be strung together and it would be quite enough in mileage and elevation. @pohodnik38 what got into you with vi-form, don't formalize... here we use ti-form.

Since I am out of shape, the ascent on brackets and rocks quite exhausted me, and since there was no time, the visit to Stolpnik was also cancelled. We agreed that we will do it sometime in the future, but with start in Stranice...
This was my first ascent as a father! I can't wait until my Katrina Vera and I go to the mountain together for the first time!]]>

Interweaving of part of the Loško - Zbelovska mountain path and Dramelj path. Also a few meters of Slomškova pilgrimage path and even more of the newly traced Jakob path. Unpronounced 575 meters high summit...BABČEK as connecting link. Watershed between Dravinja river on one side and Voglajna on the other side with quite pronounced ridge mountain-biking activities. Start in native Poljčane. Intermediate conclusion at the foot of Konjiška Mountain at the charterhouse and Žičnica. Return back along short asphalt line. Paths mainly dry, also some muddy sections for real impression... Higher to Konjiška Mountain second time, today I was more interested in longer approach with Babček as connecting link. I rode this combination first time. A few kilometers, ascents negligible. Met of course no one active, there were some chats along the path...

To the world between...Boč and Konjiška Mountain. Babček, somewhere basic and highest point 575 meters. Start, Poljčane and of course mountain bike. This time concrete approach from Špitalič. Quiet and interesting place before Žička charterhouse. Above church that bears Mary's name. Ascent concrete right above construction site of new morgue chapel. Real ,,steep climb,, towards junction Podgranček. Better would be poles, bike was here effort at side or even above shoulders. From Podgranček even more concrete to junction Jankar. Forest in this part shelter. From junction advanced quickly and soon Babček. Enough records about it. Also municipality and administrative unit Šentjur in this part. Continuation over Grušce and traverse of hill. Above quarry and passage to more concrete world on Konjiška side, area Loč. Classic extension to junction Jesenek. From here onward classic along Loško-Zbelovska mountain path. Mainly gravel and unfortunately even more asphalt. Today first time to mountain-hunting hut somewhat above path. Object still under construction/renovation as seen. But already getting shape. Stamp box and book, for stamp I don't know. I don't stamp. From here easy ride. Today also through summit part of settlement Zbelovska gora and under passage/gate somewhere more concrete end in Podpeči along Dravinja. Still extension to Poljčane and that was it. Easy/simple. Section Špitalič - Jankar somewhat more IN. Paths partly wet, some mud and temperature biking pleasant...Yes nasmeh and really pleasant it was.

Today again new less known path Frankolovo-Stolpnik. Start in foggy morning at bottom of valley where lies place Frankolovo. Path is long approx 2 hours. In this path combined several paths like the path to Stolpnik, Slomškova pilgrimage path and thematic Tončkov path. Winds through settlements, on gravel, through forest. I liked it since higher above fog nice views and also you get to know new places.
