Ojstrica and Planjava from Stahovica via Velika planina and Konj.

Yesterday's route I had planned for quite a few years; finally the day of realization came. To Kanin, Mrzla gora and Kanjavec I added another 'long' tour. I know the route well; also regarding equipment I didn't miscalculate, as Planjava at this time is usually still winter. I 'hide' the ice axe in the rucksack to avoid comments from possible morning hikers on Primož or Vel'ka. Well, there weren't that many on the way, as I started from Stahovica already at five. Hiking boots and heavy rucksack with sneakers and waist pack are of course not comparable, so I leave Gradišče only after three hours. I descend to Dol and again uphill - to Konj. Walking in the forest is a pleasure; for a short time I stop at Mlakar's hut, on sunny Konj at least a quarter of an hour. I pack the poles in the rucksack and descend to Presedljaj on well-maintained cables; in between I meet a hiker. Third time uphill, this time only for 300 meters. This route as usual drags a lot; the dwarf pines are nicely trimmed, snow only in depressions. At the spring, which is somewhere a quarter of the way to Prag, I quench my thirst. Water so cold that at the fifth 'cow' swallow I had to stop, because my throat was already burning. Short descent to Korošica and because Mojca wasn't there to serve me, I strongly lighten the content of the bottle so that for the next 550 m the rucksack is as light as possible. From Sedelc two young men approach; a few words and they are already on the way towards Prag. To the top of Ojstrica I almost didn't have to step on snow; mists started chasing each other. The top like at the sea. Warm, no wind; in solitude I enjoy at least half an hour. But Planjava didn't appear even once.
At the descent at the first junction I turn towards Škarje; some mist, some snow; by clumsiness my pole slips down the slope. Dear, four-part; luckily I didn't have to go far down. From Škarje onwards conditions worsen: fog, large surfaces covered with snow; at some moment I lose orientation. Lucus Map saves me; I see that I have moved quite a bit away from the path. A bit on steep snow and rocks; from 'Debel sneg' I come out near Srebrno sedlo. At least an hour and some additional strength went wrong. Here there is no more snow, but a cold and strong southwester woke up, which strongly strengthens to the top of Planjava. A few shots before my fingers freeze and a new incident. The wind blows off my well-anchored cap with peak from my head and places it 40 cm before the precipice. Again I was lucky Already the third time I sign in; the book is new, I close the box well. From the unfriendly top I quickly descend properly winter dressed; I linger a bit at Hillarijeva stopnja, where snow hinders easy passage. A few moves of three on rocks and I'm past. As if cut off, the wind also calmed; for a moment I stop only at the top of Sukalnik. I quickly realize that the decision about the ice axe was right, as crossing the snowy slope in two gullies without it is very risky. Still a walk to Kamniško sedlo, where I exchange a few words with a friendly young woman, and the last, most difficult part: descent to Dom v Kamniški Bistrici. The slightly planned bus I missed by two and a half hours due to many adventures .

U, nice, bravo! I've been considering this variant ever since I met "runners" on the Kalški greben who said they started at Calcit via Velko

Tone, big applause for such a 'long' execution. I also agree with Drago Praprotnik's opinion!

Uf, bravo Tone. How many elevation gains did that add?

Thanks, guys!
Quite a bit, Matjaž. From the data on Strava, (which I turned off at Kamniško sedlo) I walked exactly 26km and in thirteen hours and thirteen minutes accumulated 3,460 meters of elevation. Since I had doubts that it was a bit too much, I went on foot with the map, and I conclude that it will hold.

Bravo for the tour , I have also walked it myself, albeit in the opposite direction and I think that due to the weather and also the path itself my variant was better  congratulations once again

It's not as bad as the numbers show, Martina. The day is extremely long, there was no greater difficulty except under Planjava, and if a person is somewhat trained, healthy (and young), with will and joy, there are no problems.
