The path is passable without problems.

Kokta - on the 11th picture you don't see Rudno polje, but Uskovnica and Zajamniki!
I wish you many more beautiful paths in the Fužine mountains and pastures!

Thanks Mrki, corrected.

Last days of vacation and peak rose blooming in mountains lured us to Ogradi.
Via planina Laz to Lazovski preval, to Ogradi summit and along southern ridge back to Laz.
No problems on path.

Saturday was an ideal day for viewing larches on the pastures around Ogradi, pleasantly warm on the top, no jacket needed. After almost all nearby unmarked peaks (off-trail no longer for a long time) it was full of hikers.
Recently newly marked Laz-Krstenica path (not there last year), formerly abundant, now the Ogradi junction is also marked, so more people up there in the future.
Also, fog waterfalls from the south into Bohinj were nicely visible all day:

The raspberry bushes will soon drop their fruits

You can see very far - is that Peca there in the back?

On Friday, 7.11.2013, on a nice, sunny and warm day I stepped into the forecourt of the beautifully snow-covered peaks above the Fužine pastures.
From planina Blato I climbed up to planina Krstenica and below Krsteniski and Jezerski Stog to the abandoned planina Jezerce. I continued on the lower path, along which I saw some faded marks, to the junction at the cairn, where I turned left onto the unmarked trail towards Lazovski preval.
From Lazovski preval followed the most demanding part of the path - ascent with some climbing along the steep and partly exposed ridge to the summit of the lightly snow-covered Ogradi.
Descent along the grassy slopes to planina V Lazu and by the shortest path to planina Blato. At the parking lot I met again the friendly hiker who had brought me from Stara Fužina in the morning, and joined him also on the way down to the valley. Thanks again. Otherwise I would have had another hour of walking in the dark.

Checking snow conditions - view of the snowy Julian Alps with prominent Krn on the left and Triglav on the right from Cerje on Kras on Thursday, 6.11.2013 just after sunset

While waiting for the bus in Boh. Bistrica, I viewed the panoramic board

Planina Blato whitened with salt in the smoky mist

ascent on a beautiful but quite steep path through the forest

after about half-hour ascent through the forest the first view of Bohinj Lake and Lower Bohinj Mountains opened (zoomed)

above the fallen larches I could breathe more easily, as the path leveled out after almost an hour of steep ascent

soon I reached the hunting hut, from where one can see to the Blato pasture from the viewpoint

the path to V Lazu pasture turns left, I continued straight along the left edge of the pasture towards Krsteniški pass

another view back to Bohinj, which was still covered by a sea of fog

above Jezerce pasture (view of Vrh Hribarice and Škednjovec)

Jezerce pasture, I continued straight on the poorly marked path

at the junction by the marker post I first headed straight uphill

across the scree to the path under the wall

path at least according to the map leads from Mišeljski preval

I tried crossing steep grasses, but it didn't seem very safe to me, so I turned back and returned to the start

perhaps I should have climbed a bit higher (past the cave)

I made the mistake at the beginning, as I should have turned left at the second fork!

ascent on quite steep but passable slope towards Lazovski preval

here I joined the path that I initially intended to take

I followed the tracks of the four-legged predecessors on the nicely crunching snow

the last ascent through the thickets (look back)

at Lazovški pass a marked path from V Lazu pasture joins

I continued along the ridge to the summit of Ogradi

in the valley the sunlit Jezerce pasture below Jezerski stog

without scrambling it wouldn't have worked this time

I had almost caught my breath (too soon)

view of the traversed Ogradi ridge from Lazovški preval

Jezerski Stog, Tosc and Karavanke in the background

Marked junction (praise to the path marker). Further towards Ogradi there are no markers, but no need either. There is only one path.

idyllische Alm V Lazu (as written on the sign on one of the huts: the most authentically preserved pastoral settlement in the Julian Alps)

due to the short day I chose the shortest path to the Blato alpine pasture, so I had to return to the junction above the pasture

well-marked junction above the V Lazu alpine pasture

Today on Ogradi from Planina Blato.
The upper half of the path to Laz is still mostly in snow, further to Ogradi mostly dry.
The scree slopes of Ogradi are full of flowers, again couldn't avoid a snake zadrega

Nice, really nice day for the mountains cool

It's become a habit for us to visit Ogradi in May.
The weather wasn't favorable for photography, as it was a dull gray sky all morning. It cleared up when we returned to Planina Laz.
The path from Pl. Blato is mostly dry, rarely crossing a snow patch.
No snow problems towards Ogradi either. But we were surprised by the number of snakes. Four vipers were in one spot.
Given that it was windy all the way, it was completely calm at the top. We had a hard time heading back to the valley.
Stop in Laz, where marmots are already scurrying.
Nicely spent day:

Today over Krstenica to Ogradi.
Descent to Planina Laz and past Koča na Jezeru back to parking under Planina Blato.
Since it's a hunting path, the marks from Planina Blato to Krstenica have rightly disappeared. velik nasmeh

Some orientation issues at Planina Laz when needing to head towards Planina pri Jezeru, otherwise no problems following the path.
Best.

Direction sign - Blato on the marked path from Krstenice towards pl.Laz

Fortunately, the scythe has not yet reached these wonderful meadows

Today on Ogradi.
Road to Planina Blato is dry, same to Planina Laz. Just occasional snow patches here and there.
Path to Ogradi is dry too. On ascent we ran into a real colony of vipers - counted six.
View from top shows still quite a bit of snow above 2000m. Especially in shady areas.
On return stopped at Planina Laz, surprised how much snow still to Planina Jezero. 2/3 of path under snow, and the path itself, where visible, wider every year zmeden

At Planina Jezero they were preparing to open the hut.
A few pics:

Can anyone tell me where the "path" is supposed to go in the last part of Bušnica? At the end it gets quite steep and not easy to pass.

peter228. 05. 2017 18:22:34

A year has passed and it was time to visit Ogradi.
This year completely dry. Southern slopes already clad in flowers, only one small viper this year.
Not many visitors. Happy we met Ločanka, chatted nicely with her.

ločanka29. 05. 2017 04:32:55

yes, the nice meeting on the path to Ogradi pleased me nasmeh

First though the longer path to Krstenica, which at this time is still completely quiet and peaceful in its beauty, then pleasant ascent to Ogradi, where you can't help but admire the close views from Debeleg vrh to Triglav, and more.
Return via Pl. Laz and at the end admiring the waterfall above the road.

Valley behind Debelem vrh, in the background Vršaki.

Saddle between Škednjovec and Vrh Hribaric, in the center Mišelj konec.

... Ogradi via Lazovski Saddle.. Pristine nature, flowers along the path and views of the necklace of mountains around. On the grassy summit there are lots of small gentians and edelweiss. Descent to pl. Laz and then along steep path to pl. Blato. More foot-friendly is the path via Krstenica.. nasmeh
