Pirčev vrh

A new short and sweet trip has been added to the collection. Since my roommate renounced writing it up, and there's no thread open on the forum, I'm adding a few lines and pictures.

Between Potok v Črni and Podstudenc lie the Pirčeve ridges, where the excursion starts at the belay on a comfortable logging trail. Soon it turns into a pathlet, and when we find ourselves at the new bench, we take it along the ridgelet leading towards Pirčev vrh. This is a world of many faces, rising steeply and offering the awakening spring in full splendor, along with plenty of tree sculptures. From Pirčev vrh we head towards Ravni hrib, but off-trail already after a few steps reveals that right below us is a path from which cheerful babbling is heard. We quietly retreat and briskly take it through thickets to the western end of Sušav, where lunch quickly disappears, and consequently the belly purrs contentedly like a pampered kitten. Lounging despite the warm sun doesn't last long, and we're already walking west along the ridgelet of Ravni hrib. Just before the westernmost grassy patch, the moment is livened up by a roe deer that was too fast to capture on photo. Then we turn downhill slightly towards sv. Primož. No path, grasses very dry and very steep. The world is primordially enchanting and the trees particularly comfortable (picture 18). After joining the marked path, we turn towards the gully that descends like a disheveled-furious ditch towards Potok v Črni. We follow the traverse pathlet for a while, but since we probably missed the branch that should lead into the gully, we go by nose again and explore a few more exceptional corners, and in the end while crossing the western slope of Pirčev vrh we also amuse ourselves with a bear.

This world offers quite a bit more exploration material and invites a return visit.

Great trip around these parts, especially between Pirčev and Ravni, where many natural beauties are hidden.

Question - why didn't you decide for the direct descent from the top of the ridge of Ravni vrh along the southern ridge, which in the last third of Ravni vrh descends directly to Prekop?

If you already reached exactly the end of the meadow on Ravni - was any little path visible to the S side into Konjska Valley?

This exploration still awaits me.

Beautiful tour and very nice mostly pathless loop 👍

Pirč's world is interesting and I myself have already started planning one of the next trips nasmeh.
The direct descent was not carried out because I wanted to go again along the little ridge to the place where I once turned to the other side before, that is to Konjska Valley. Maybe the last few photos from the link can help: https://www.hribi.net/trenutne_razmere/slo/velika_planina_-_konjska_dolina/3/928
