Ratitovec

Today was the 3rd goal of the "This Year to Triglav" program, Krek's hut on Ratitovec. We started early so there was no crowd on the path or at the hut. Still some snow on the path from Razor plain to the grassy slopes, otherwise no issues with path or weather nasmeh could say "flat summer".

On Saturday Ratitovec visitors completely filled Krek's hut, especially those with fifteen or more ascents to Gladki vrh behind them. We climbed from Prtovč first to Kosmati vrh, then to Gladki and at the end of wandering on Ratitovec to Altemaver. Mists spiced the path and it was quite pleasant despite the wind.

On a few spots below the summit there's a little wind-blown snow on the path. But with higher temperatures it will flow to the valley too. nasmeh

Today for a change to Ratitovec on the "side" path, not the "main road" from Prtovč.
Start from Zg. Danj, across the pasture, past the bunker, along the ridge with wonderful views and flowers to Altemaver and to the hut. Circled back down via Torka and through villages to Zg. Danj. Road between villages about half asphalted.
We followed the path from Danj without trouble, though both of us were here almost for the first time. Overgrown in spots, just watch the markers. We met only a few people, so really recommend it, off the crowds and romantic. At hut of course jam...
Weather held too, hey hooray! Next time from Soriska planinavelik nasmeh

I visited Ratitovec yesterday; I must praise the cooks (cookesses?); both paths from Prtovč are OK, on the sunny part over povden (up, when out of the forest, before zajla) there were blueberries.
And lots of people. Otherwise both paths are fine.

Yesterday we visited Ratitovec with friends. Main parking at church in Prtovč full already at 9. We drove further on gravel to spot where marked path from Ledine crosses road, space for 4-5 cars, as I chose path via Pl. Klom and Gladki vrh to Krek's hut. Path well marked and normally passable, on return we descended from hut on path to Razor then climbed up to Vratca, from there two of us went via Kosmati vrh, others on ascent path to start.
All day clouds and sun, around 15 a small shower.

Today my wish finally came true - to Ratitovec from Soriska planina along the ridge.
Wonderful day, vast views, solitude, peace...
I met only a couple of mushroom pickers and hikers on the whole trail (except hut and surroundings).

Path varied, well marked, but need to watch out as many animal tracks can mislead you. To hut with all peaks (Žbanjek, Kačji rob, Kremant, Altemaver and Gladki vrh) took good 3 hours, back good 2, just for orientation (not bragging). Only Kosmati vrh missing.

Hope for repeat, say spring when full of flowers... mežikanje Recommend!

Hi. Any snow on Ratitovec maybe?

A bit late but anyway. Yes, it is. A little, but over Razor quite icy. For back to Prtovč better choose over Povden.

On Monday I'm thinking about a hike to Kosmati vrh. What's the snow situation and is there any path safer than others due to avalanches? I'm inexperienced in winter, so I'm inquiring.

Hi, I was on Gladki vrh and at the hut two days ago. Up via Razor, down via Poden. Very little snow, starts higher above Prtovč.
As far as I saw from afar, there's already a trodden path to Kosmati vrh from Razor direction.
Some caution needed on ascent and descent due to a few smooth and icy spots, but crampons stayed in backpack this time. Probably many more such spots on Monday due to heavy traffic these days. More sunny and easier path was via Poden this time.
Good boots mandatory of course, poles and crampons recommended! Saw lots of hikers in low sneakers in snow... zmeden
Safe trip and enjoy! Kosmati vrh still awaits me too. nasmeh

From Prtovč over Povden to Gladki vrh and Altemaver.
Over Povden possible nicely with some caution without crampons.
Down over Razor, quite icy.
This time no wind for change. Clear with nice views far around.

Hi,
on Sunday planning Rakitovec, up via Razor, down via Povden, wonder how much snow and if crampons or maybe full crampons needed.
Thanks for info

Will it go with microspikes over Razor up and Povden down or need real crampons and ice axe?

Just microspikes. But someone might give different comment.

I've long postponed this trip, question if I would have ever gone without the corona discouraging harder paths. One of the nicest so far. Highly recommend.

Paths very well marked too, only exception descent from Kosmati vrh to Razor, more markings there wouldn't hurt.
