Saturday 30.10.2021

The starting point for the tour is the same as for Čisti vrh, the path to Dol pod Plazmi is also the same. In Dol pod Plazmi we step on the road and head right, towards Ravni dol, and go along it to the end. We ignore the sharp left turn uphill, as the road in that direction leads to the pasture in Plazeh. The road gradually turns into a cart track, that into a path, path into a trail. It brings us to the (this time dry) stream bed, beyond which stands a cairn marking the continuation of the nicely traceable little trail. On the meadows in the head of Ravni dol I lost the trail, then found it again, lost it again... Although I've walked here before, many years ago we took Tumova route to Špiča, I let myself be misled by the logging in the dwarf pines, so I bushwhacked quite a bit to the ridge, how it is in dense dwarf pines, you know. Not pleasant. The summit of Plazjanski vršac is indistinct, without a cairn, just a rocky grassy patch among dwarf pine plantations. Since the sun hadn't shone on the summit yet, I went a bit further towards Čisti vrh and treated myself to a thorough dolce far niente in a sunny spot. The day was gorgeous, I also used it as a memory of some of them who are no longer with us and with whom I lived the best and most beautiful times of my life. Descent along the same path, most of it in cold shade like on the ascent, as the sun doesn't reach these parts at this time of year. Great, emotional, highly experiential outing smile

Thanks Bojan, now I know how that part is, been to Cisti Vrh many times because it was also the goal (for me) of the unforgettable and missed Igor, yeah in times of "dolce far niente" it suits them, I agree.

Alessio ciao,
thought of Igor when I was on Plazjanski vršac, you know. On all ski touring runs, dry hikes, our last chat in Zajnci. Wasn't far on Saturday, rests on nearby Čisti vrh ...

4.11.2025. Plazjanski or Plaski vršac and Čisti vrh. It was a sunlit day. The whole day. When it snows, better choose something lower. Since we hadn't been to the first Plazjanski vršac yet, we decided to go look. And also see Tumova pot, when already close. Some tips I got from Bojan, otherwise not much description of that path. That about impassable scrub I didn't really believe him. When there you see. Because these days much water, a larger lake formed a bit ahead, where you turn right to macadam road. Snow below wasn't much. But it was frozen, since walking in shade. In continuation snow more and more. It was soft and walking really pleasant. In last part some scrub. Snow poured when going through. At top we decide to continue along ridge to Čisti vrh. Marijan had navigation and used to such paths, which sadly no more continued. Scrub was dense. Somewhere descended over rock. Elsewhere not even possible to go. Last part had to descend a bit. And under rocks still visible passage, where carefully across. Then quickly on path going to Čisti vrh. In sun really warm. Took an hour at top. Chatted with younger local girl who came up. Said she comes often. Only descent on known path waited. About 13-14 km walked. Tour really nice, since day gorgeous.
