You won't find this peak on hiking maps, but I tracked it down in the extended list of Slovenian two-thousanders. It's located in the NE extension of the ruined Stol ridge between unnamed point 2161 and Krkotnik 2103. The mentioned list gives 2139m height, but by my measurements it's 2152m
In the morning I drive the ribbed road to Valvasor, where the small parking lot is already full. Since the sun hid behind cloudlets, I got to Prešeren pretty quickly. There too I drink tea (1.80, at Valvasor 1.20€), to me a decent price.
Down the marked path towards Orlice, soon turn left to the saddle between Krkotnik and Orličje. Ascent to summit offers poor II. Towards Stol there's another distinct peak, but the summit part looked so crumbled I didn't dare. Descend the ascent route, up to Stol grassy shoulder, down to it from the other side. Ascent not tough, summit part not as loose as from other side.
On descent from Stol cloudlets parted and I could hardly wait for beer at Valvasor .

Well with six-year delay to above post, but maybe still better late than never, so no one else looks for this peak in the wrong place. On maps ridge between Stol and Krkotnik marked Orlice, SE ridge Orličje. "Peak" Orličje on latter. Quotes because with 11m prominence (height over saddle) actually no peak, just named contour. But much easier to reach than ridge around Krkotnik. Height by LIDAR exactly 2,138.2 m. Sorry no pics, but a couple in description by M and M.
