Lady and gentleman who left Snežnik summit around 12 today have lost gloves(2x) and hat. With the lady we exchanged words about strong wind on top. If you see the post, contact me. LP

After a long time we returned to Snežnik and admired the forest richness of these areas. Always a pleasant ascent.

First time since student years back on Snežnik.
With daughter and nephew from Sviščaki. Path idyllic, nicely maintained. The icing on the cake is really nice botany in the last part of the path. Balm for eyes and soul!

Caretaker friendly, good-natured guy, food tasty! Bravo.

To make the drive circular, a "hop" to Loška dolina to Snežnik castle and Babno polje. Mild 24C at 14:00.

Today from Sviščaki to Snežnik. Road from Ilirska Bistrica to Sviščaki dry and drivable. Small crampons highly recommended. Many hikers and accordingly parking problem. Weather and views TOP.

A few years ago, when I went to Snežnik I drove through Bloke and then past Grad Snežnik. There somewhere by the castle the asphalt road ended. From Grad Snežnik to Sviščaki there's a long gravel road ahead. And I thought they had newly asphalted this road.

The hiking trail in the section between Mali Sviščaki and the intersection of Snežnik and Madragočeva roads is temporarily closed due to logging and timber skidding.
Detailed status is visible on the attached map:

Today on Mali and Veliki Snežnik. Path from Ilirska Bistrica to Sviščaki fully asphalted. Along the path a real botanical paradise. Really lots of flowers, full of wild orchids, golden lilies and even lady's slippers we found. At the hut lots of visitors. Return circular via Mali Snežnik to starting point. Temperatures up there much more pleasant. Path to Mali Snežnik mostly well cleared. It was a nice day. nasmeh

Yesterday a nice circular path to Big Snežnik starting at the mountain hut on Sviščaki. Up past Grda Draga to Little Snežnik and on over Middle Snežnik to Big Snežnik.
Descent over Lom to starting point.
At the top cold and windy.

Nice mountaineering greeting.

On a wonderful, crystal-clear December day I set out to explore the Snežnik plateau – an area that always surprises anew with its wild beauty, forests and breathtaking views.

This adventure started in the quiet village Vrbica (427 m) near Ilirska Bistrica. Already the initial kilometers through the enchanting Reka river valley announced that the day would be something special. This was followed by the ascent to the mighty Snežnik plateau, where I visited several peaks and enjoyed the complete silence of the high forests.

The first goal was Goljak (1145 m), then the highest point of the tour – Veliki Razbor (1300 m), which offered one of the nicest views on the entire path. The descent to below Kozlek was a real fairy-tale experience, but soon the hardest part of the day followed: 150 elevation meters of a very demanding uphill by bike, which brought me to the top of Kozlek (997 m), where there is also a pleasant mountain hut.

From the top I descended towards Srednji vrh (910 m) and Sopilo (869 m), then an attractive final descent back to the valley awaited me, to the starting point in Vrbica.

In total I rode 35 km and overcame 1150 elevation meters. On the path exceptional views opened to the entire Reka river valley, to Kvarner Bay and also the islands Krk and Cres.

If you love nature, adventures and authentic mountaineering feelings, I invite you to join me in the video.

Hello,
Yesterday we were on the way to Gašperjev hrib in the steep part of the forest between 1600 and 1550m and lost a Leki pole. If someone picked it up they can call 040 994 995 or write to grintovec@gmail.com
Thanks nasmeh
