Razor

Print

Given that on our highest peak there are only traces of snow patches in gullies and ledges, then Razor is no problem. Weather will be stable and just right for mountaineering until Friday or longer.

Great, thanks for the info.

Probably some other mountain will fall then. :P

Yesterday with friend after plan change over Dolgi hrbet-K.S.A., due to clouds rather headed to somewhat more promising Julijce. Parked at Vršič, where they were already diligently collecting parking fees. We parked a bit lower, as for a decade with contributions they haven't fixed the parking lot at the top as they promised then. Cashier says he hears the same from us all season long.
Started late at 8am, looking for lower path to Gladki rob which we missed while chatting. Ahead to Škrbina goes quite fast, where with peaches, muesli bars and homemade apple strudel we treat our souls a bit. Ahead we cross small snowfield and through system of ledges climb to scree under Sedlo Planja. Another good half hour and we stand on panoramic Razor. Yes, our mountains, although somewhat lower, can stand shoulder to shoulder with other parks of European Alps. Up top fog covered view to peaks, but on the path itself there was much beauty to see, if one has eyes in the right place. Late afternoon we return to Vršič, where on the way we met some Croats, Austrians, Swedes, Slovaks. No excessive crowds up there yesterday though. Great tour for those who don't complain about all-day hike in mountains. Lp!.

Yesterday start in Vrata, over Sovatna to Kriške pode. Short break, then to Razor, which is on the way, really one big ruin. Overnight at Pogačnik, which was so full that people slept everywhere. Young staff very friendly! Tomorrow again to Škrlatica, this time to the top!

Nice sunny morning lured me to the mountains again today. Driving towards Trenta I watch the emerald mountain beauty, which after abundant night rain today is far from that. I drive to the road hut, where I park, then go up the trail towards Mlinarica. Solitary surroundings and the wild roar of waters grinding through Mlinarica, which can be heard far up, are a real balm for the soul. Definitely much better than engine racket over Vršič. West face of Razor offers nice natural passages and soon I'm at the saddle. A quick hop and I'm on Razor. Descent to Pogačnikov dom follows, where I'm the only visitor that day. Staff just preparing lunch, so I don't bother them and quietly drink a beer, then head to Zadnjica. On the way rain caught me, but what can a few drops do if you have a raincoat. At Vinkot in Zadnjica I must first eat excellent mushroom soup, then he drives me up to the road hut and nice loop is closed.

Sano, yesterday I went from Vršič to Razor. Before entering the wall there are still some snow patches - you can bypass all on the lower side. In the upper part, just before Planja saddle there's another snow patch, need to cross a few meters. Snow isn't too hard, so ok without crampons. Elsewhere the path is bare. Descended to Trenta, then bus back to Vršič (runs daily from Trenta at 4 and 6 pm).

We met just below the Razor summit! I was almost sure it was you, but I didn't bother you.

I took the variant Krnica - Kriška stena - Bovška vratca - Križ - Pogačnikov dom - Razor - Planja - Vršič lower path - car at 3rd Vršič bend.

My report follows, of course. nasmeh

Today to Razor and Planja from Vršič southern route (Mlinarica). Started by the car at 5:30, Razor summit at 9:00. No living soul to Planja saddle, which I count as a positive side of that path... the path configuration itself is not really to my liking...zavijanje z očmi
In between lots of photographing, some snack stops and a longer break at Planja summit, enjoying solitude there... Nice! On the return very hot in Mlinarica, especially regaining height in the last part of the path. Tour was OK! Regards!

Today I also made it to Razor and Planja. Started in Vratih,
had coffee at Pogačnikov dom and continued. I liked the path, not too demanding, nor too crumbly as I had read previously, because of which my sister also chickened out and didn't reach the summits...zavijanje z očmi On the return another break at the hut, which they were closing, treated us to a new coffee and added that they'll come back for the weekend... So, if anyone plans or wants to overnight over the weekend, it will be possible..nasmeh Thanks to the staff again, you are truly unique... young gentlemen..nasmeh

Though it's already two days since the ascent to Planja and Razor, the weather is still as gorgeous as if going today. Started at the third bend of the road to Vršič, past the Krnica hut still in pitch darkness. When I reach Kriška stena, the sun greets me. Descent to Pogačnikov dom, then ascent over scree first to Planja and finally to Razor. Met friendly Austrian Michael, with whom we engaged in conversation and after 1.5 hours descended to the saddle, he left to Pogačnikov dom and Zadnjica, I right towards Mlinarica and under Prisankom to Vršič. Wonderful views, met many ibex and chamois on the path.. Good that Kriška stena spiced the ascent path, otherwise just gravel, scree, rubble..

Yesterday from Vrata via Sovatna past Pogačnik to Razor. Path snow-free to Pogačnikov dom, towards Planja saddle a couple of patches that can be avoided but can serve for quicker descentjezik... just a bit below the summit a small landslide can cause some problems, which partially buried the path, so more caution is needed here and try to leave the spot as soon as possible because stones fall frequently here. Went without winter gear, I don't know how without helmet. Return same path, otherwise nice hot day, just Razor visits surprisingly low, first two entries since last November in the last two days..nasmehnasmeh

Yesterday's all-day wonderful tour I'll put under Razor as it doesn't fit perfectly any title. Started already at 4:45 from Vrata. This year they collect parking already at that hour - 3.5 euros. Then to Sovatna - surprisingly - there was quite a queue. Over Sovatna in shade, only at the saddle did the sun appear. Then to Pogačnik hut at Kriški podi and onwards to Razor. Mainly hikers were already returning. Planja saddle welcomed me in fog. From the hut it was still all clear. The path is indeed a bit poorly marked, as I heard from several hikers and we must watch not to stray too far from the right direction. Otherwise the path is fine, just a bit before the summit there is one nasty more earthy than scree ascent. I overcame it via the rocks above it. When damp it can be quite slippery. On the return I took it over Križ to bivouac IV at Ruševje - it was full - didn't check the key and via quite nasty path to Vrata.

I have never yet viewed the Peričnik waterfall up close. A pleasant path leads up - worth seeing.24
The waterfall is magnificent, we can descend and even bypass it. The path also leads to the upper waterfall, which is not visible from below. I'll view that another time.25

They shouldn't collect parking before 5:00 actually because the ticket says from 5:00 onwards... Don't worry, they charged me too last time at 4:50velik nasmeh Whatever, let them, there are still plenty of other starting points and ways.

Nice tour and cheers!
