Krn

Yesterday on Krn from Drežnica. Path not completely dry as some reported, before climbing section snowfield to cross. Snow firm but slope not such that it couldn't be done without crampons, ice axe in hand definitely useful. Rest of path dry, rocks dry. Views not best but could see lots of snow still on Kanin (south side too), on Montaz less, path to Vis seemed almost dry.

Does anyone know if it's already dry past the lake in Luznica?

We were last Saturday with PD Valentin Stanič Kanal, the path is passable without problems.

Who would have known yesterday if Krn would have a cap today. Maybe it would uncover at least for a while. And it did, as if embarrassed to be covered all day. From parking in Krn village, which is exemplarily arranged. Past Planina Leskovca to Batognica. Peaks missed, as they were in clouds all the time. Then Krn. And down southern valley. Quite some hikers for such a day. No snow anymore. July after all and summer conditions appropriate.zavijanje z očmi

Heading up (two of us) next weekend. Probably from Bohinj side. Wondering if on this path there are any springs where we could refill water? What about from Lepena direction?

How is public transport if wanting to do a circular route?

Has anyone gone recently on Silva Korena path from Drežnica? There at the start, on path from bivouac, still snowfield? Is there a cable to belay on? Once we were up there, snow and cable far under snow - unpleasant...

Is there still any snowfields a month after the last report from the Silva Korena path? Planning for the weekend...

And one more question: We would like to connect the ascent to Krn from Drežnica, then continue to Krnčica and down. How feasible is it? As I saw, the path from Krn to Krnčica is not marked. Where does it branch off and how well traceable is it? From Krnčica we would descend to Planina Zapleč and then to Drežniške Ravne. How far is it then on foot to Drežnica, where the car is? Is there any other option? Thanks for any tip and help.

To get to Planina Zapleč, go from Krn to Krnska Škrbina and then a few minutes toward Krnsko Lake. Soon a path branches off to Pl. Zapleč and Vrata, which is marked to Pl. Zapleč. Then along the road or across the pastures. The path across the pastures is very nice but more or less overgrown (depending on how much the cows have grazed). Until last year, there were only occasional faded marks here and there, so you have to follow cow paths and a bit by feel. The pastures are crossed by two gravel roads or tracks; on the second there is a sign directing to Drežnica and Curk waterfall. The branch is also marked from the road to Drežniške Ravne. I don't know the path and don't know how the next junctions are marked.
For the path from Pl. Zapleč to the trough and parking above Drežniške Ravne across pastures, we might need maybe a minute less than by road, which drags on but allows faster steps (around 45 min). From the parking above Drežniške Ravne to Drežnica it's approximately the same. Pl. Zapleč-Drežnica: around 1.5 hrs.
The path from the parking above Drežniške Ravne to Krn is marked at 5 hrs. I myself went only to Krnčica. To the valley thus at least an hour less, unless you're like me, who needs almost more for the descent than the ascent.
I'd like to provide more accurate information, but unfortunately I haven't managed to fully explore the Drežnica-Krn path yet. I'm most interested in the path to Drežnica past Curk waterfall, which will remain on the wishlist for a long time. Thus, I can only help with half-verified information.

Thanks Suzana, these are very welcome pieces of information. But from our area it's quite far, which hinders it a bit (I meant Lopatnik).
This variant from Krn to Lopatnik is really interestingnasmeh

Ločanka, I attached the path to Lopatnik for Pogačica, because she is interested in return from Krn via Krnčica and pl. Zapleč. The path to Krn actually continues under Lopatnik.

Pogačica, I hope you have luck with the weather and enjoy the beauties of the Krn range. In the warm part of the year clouds form quickly here. I don't recommend the path over Krnčica in poor visibility.
In the heat take enough water with you, the path is very sunny. Water troughs are at pl. Zaprikraj (beyond pl. Zapleč), on the other road through pastures (where signs to Curk waterfall) and at the parking above Drežniške Ravne.

I myself miss creating photo stories and my long hill hikes. Sadly I've been grounded for a long time and limited to heights where cable car or road takes you.

On Saturday to Krn, this time for the first time via the Silva Korena path. It holds what many have already written: in wet conditions it's slippery and the slip risk on grasses is high, so caution is not superfluous. Otherwise protections, except two pulled-out pitons right at the start, OK. Although Krn was besieged by many hikers on Saturday, we few who went via SK could enjoy the peace and nature. Sadly Krn got its cap early, so there were no views and the photos match that.

I was already afraid here that he is checking the maps...1

On Thursday 28.9. by bike from Ajdovščina through Trnovski gozd to Krn. To the top 6 hrs.
The ascent from planina Kuhinja to 1700m took place in wonderful late-summer sunshine. Higher up fog, except at the top towards S clear

It snowed overnight on Krn. Real winter idyll. Weather as forecasted. Morning nicer, afternoon fog. Some hikers anyway. And it was windy at the top. Snow soft. No winter gear needed, except hat, gloves and warm clothes.

Krn from Lepena, 22/10/16…some snow, fog on top too…otherwise quite a suitable tour for this season, if snow is no obstacle of course (my opinion)…
…and little video…

KlemenD, nothing to add - wonderful video with pleasant music background.
VanSims, nice ascent description to Krn, will probably get quite some praise.
Thanks to both!
