Altemaver (Ratitovec)

Some yesterday's impressions from a nice circular path starting-Jesenovec.
From starting point continue to Kosmati vrh and on to Gladki vrh and Altemaver.Back via planina Pečana and planina Klom to starting point.On the path there was some snow, which doesn't pose problems on the path.Weather wonderful, views even better.

Nice mountaineer's greeting.

Hi! Has anyone been up after the last snowfall and can report from the terrain? nasmeh

LISAC26. 12. 2025 12:30:31

Hi. From Prtovč path over Razor super trodden, need small chains though as it's smart to use them several times. Hut open permanently until incl. 4.1.26. Lp

Does anyone happen to have info on the path from Železniki? Is it trodden?

Who stops you, go and give report. Nothing better than stepping in virgin snow.

Well-visited low hills are usually trodden already during snowfall or soon after, so don't fear being first. But angry at ugly Slovenian habit that every pathlet is soon densely yellow-marked. jezen

Well, Ratitovec isn't exactly a low hill, with height over 1600 m it ranks in the mid-mountains and can be quite demanding in winter conditions. True, it has lots of visitors every weekend, Prtovč parking is almost always full, so after snowfall both paths over Povden and Razor are quickly trampled and trodden. So boldly on the trail, the flanks are really divine nasmeh

There was a hike to Dražgoše at night and I assume it's icy...

From Soriska Planina, yesterday's track made, so now accessible from that side too... a bit more on: description

11.1.2026 -> Železniki - Ratitovec
First part of steep path through forest has very little snow, a bit more then to Draboslovica and on to Prtovč. First time walked this part of the path, which is quite steep, but I really like it. Over this part (from Železniki to Prtovč) maybe two pairs of feet went, so some tracks were there. From Prtovč on, of course "highway". No ice, crampons stayed in backpack.

Ratitovec. The sun came out just during the descent.

The right variant is the most desirable....

In the morning, the road was still a bit more snowy.

At the intersection, after the steep ascent from Železniki through the forest.

...which from here on is very gentle to Prtovč.

First part of the path through the forest...

1 May 2026 to Ratitovec from Zgornje Danje. A nice road leads to the starting point, which is macadamized only in a shorter section. Zgornje Danje is a small hamlet with a few houses in a wonderful setting. Just as we were starting the hike, they released a loud herd of sheep onto the pasture. Nice experience!
The path is steep through the forest in the initial part, then wonderfully scenic. The markings are recent and the path is easy to follow. Very few visitors from this side. One of the nicer approaches to Ratitovec for me. nasmeh

Past the sheepfold, there were also some goats

Right behind this wooden shed a steep path begins

When the steepness eases, a large meadow appears - Spodnji Jirn pasture

Again it was time for the annual spring visit to this hill. Lush greenery in not too much heat, obligatory flancat and beer in the hut, which was very busy. Besides the nearby Gladki vrh, after a long time I also jumped to Altemaver, the highest point of Ratitovec. The parking lot at the church in Prtovč has been chargeable for a few years now, it saves you almost 600 elevation meters of the annoying winding road. Another same amount, and you're at the top. They take very good care of the hut and the immediate surroundings.
A few pictures.

Just above Prtovč to the right there is another parking lot, which is also paid.

At good thousand meters they are not in a hurry with mowing.

lijaneja super, these are our parts. Starting points are also in the valley and the paths avoid the road quite a bit. But you collect around 1300 meters of elevation. There are also less visited variants here. Yesterday there was a mountain run here. Lp
