Thanks for the advice.

Maybe better first to Špik Hude Police, from there short descent and via ferrata Leva to Montaž. The description I'm attaching describes only the path to Špik Hude Police (if you don't know Italian use Google translate), but a detailed map is attached showing how the path goes. Descent from Montaž via new ladder. Say up to two and a half hours to Hude Police, then continue, I've been there already without Montaž, so guessing roughly that from Hude Police to it about 3h ascent. Let whoever did it correct me. Anyway now is the right time for it, weather more stable, day still long enough. Including quite high starting point it should "fit" nasmeh

Kafetarca,

here you go nasmeh

And this "officially" velik nasmeh

If not with PD probably the first number will suffice, that's 8h for the round, maybe even a tiny bit less mežikanje

A good month ago there was a sign at the start of the Leva (from Montaž side) that the path is closed. But it was normally passable.

1.10.2023. Montaž via Findenegg Glacier and down via Pipan, traverse to ferrata Leva and to Špik Hude police...

Best variant for Montaž!

MANGRT27. 11. 2023 09:31:14

Road to Pecol only for 4x4 or on foot as too little snow for skis yet. For summit chose left variant direct to ladder, return on marked trail. Enough snow but still trouble starting with weak snow under crust.

Nice afternoon without people only chamois and marmots.
Took path via Pipanova combining old and new trails up and down. Snow will persist a while, but Leva path CLOSED due to renovation.

Montaž!Majestic highest mountain there above Pecol, worthy of admiration. Just the view from Pecol up there takes your breath away and invites you into its embrace. Today first time on the new Pipanova, laid out very cleverly so it squeezes even more strength out of you than the previous one.

Montaž and Vrh Brda, somewhere below the fork for left I still meet the last ones. Path is dry. Secured path is renovated. Descend via Lojtro and just below continue to Vrh Brd, some cairns, some faded marks. At the top it cleared up soon.

The path through Findenegg glacier is also dry, and on Levi all protections are replaced

and more and more of them - each more beautiful than the previous.

24.8.24
Pecol-Pipan-Špik nad policami-Pipan-Leva-Špik Hude police

We used the top weather for the hills above Pecol. The path is nicely marked and maintained. There were no crowds at Pipan. I advise against the glacier because rocks are flying nonstop (report from a couple who missed the turnoff for Pipan). The path to the ladder is relatively easy; I think the hardest part is right after the first ladder. The rest is OK.

Leva is a wonderful path; if you're not vertiginous, it offers lots of enjoyment. Walking on ledges that just don't end. I'd warn about the section we missed towards the saddle, but a hiker higher up warned us that we had strayed, luckily just 15-20m. The marking is quite poorly visible (about 30 min before the “saddle”). After the saddle, a short ascent on cables and the hardest part is over. Maybe a sensible reverse loop.

Descent on an unmarked path to Pecol.

Net hiking time for just over 6 hours, total 8.

Both paths are newly equipped. Be careful of rocks dislodged by hikers and ibex. They fly all the time. Also on the descent from Špik Hude police, I recommend a helmet.

Has anyone been up there in the last few days? Any snow maybe?

Check the webcam - Montaz and you see everything. nasmeh

Today on Montaz via Pipan ladder and via Levi to Špik Hude police. Up to Pipan ladder there is a small snowfield, which with caution doesn't pose too many problems. Snow is not frozen. On Levi you can avoid all snowfields without problem.

A few years ago I visited the beautiful Pecol pasture twice, once more via the then-old Pipan ladder to Montaz. Potato holidays, 31.10.2024, weather just right for visiting the mountains, I surprise my son and midnight start from Celje to Pecol pasture. His eyes lit up when he saw the mighty range. On the ridge we meet chamois, marmots probably already in hibernation though heard around. Trail well secured, crossing two snowfields no problem, new Pipan ladder much more fixed than the previous one. At the top real summer temperatures, views divine. As often, here too I meet two nice conversationalists and descend back to the valley with them. Almost speechless we lingered a bit longer at the pasture, promised her/it that we would return in the summer. It left, just like with me long ago, also now with my son, a big imprint. Beautifully spent day, full of unforgettable impressions!
