Rodica

We too followed some barely visible blazes in the forest. But descent is annoying because steep and you sigh in relief when you reach the lower path. To mulatiera. Now entire path cleared. Tolmin folks really diligent. They have maintained paths. The marked ones.

Yesterday 23.6.2021, I went again from Petrov Brdo all the way to Žabiški Kuk. The path to Rodica is snow-free except for the snowfield below Matajurski vrh. On the path, it is necessary to cross three small snowfields, as visible from the photo. All of it can be bypassed via Matajurski vrh and descent along the ridge (towards Rodica) back to the path. The ridge is not technically demanding, but exposed in places, so caution is needed.

From Rodica towards Šija, just before the exit to the Šija ridge, there are also three small snowfields, which can be bypassed without issues. Snow is then only right below the exit to the Vogel ridge, which cannot be bypassed and requires caution.

On Wednesday, 30.6.2021, to Rodica from the Bohinj side. The path fully dry, some minor snow still in hollows by the path. By car on gravel road branching off just after Laški Rovt. After 4.5 km parked and followed marked path. Planina Suha deserted. Huge amount of flowers along the path. To the summit via the snowy variant Za Ulcam - the path temporarily lost, but direction clear. Clouds passing over the sky, on the ridge properly windy and temporarily fully calmed for a while. From the summit first short time along the ridge, then marked path through the valley V Plazičih back to Planina Suha. Wonderful views to the mountains all around, to Bohinj Lake. Very few visitors. Rodica is always nice. nasmeh

Start at this signpost. To Javor still about 15 minutes walk.

Completely new sign for the alpine pasture, but...

alpine pasture is desolate - no people, no animals, looks abandoned

On Suha alpine pasture full of golden hawkweed

Right Mala Rodica, left according to map Špik (1799 m)

So many Wulfen jegličevi never before - one decoration prettier than the other

Tolmin mountains already coming into view

And towards north - above Očak, below it Bohinj Lake and much more

Already returning - wind was blowing and gloves came in handy

One of the larger snow patches below the summit in a deep cirque. The path bypasses it.

The view still stretches far back towards the summit.

Today to Rodica from village Rut in Tolmin area. Calm in valley, but on top strong cold wind disturbed the idyll. Good views, except mists around Očak.

Good conditions but hard all the way. Up within the marked path, down the gully. Road from Rut normally drivable.

25.01.2022. Peaceful silence was yesterday. No one anywhere. We went from Rutarski gozd like Matej a few days ago. In the morning, which was not even that cold. We used crampons right when the snow started. Below the summit one part was icy. Also dry in between. Mixed conditions when there is less snow. At the sign below the summit cold wind was blowing from the Gorenjska side. Views really nice. Down in the forest morning rime on trees. Mists in the valley. Warm on descent. Snow softened in the sun. We expected definitely more snow in January. But nature already knows what is right and what not.

Known path. We've already walked it in the snow.

when you have everything at the palm of your hand.

interesting little mills along the path where water flows.

Hello!

Is there on the route: Črna prst - Rodica - Vogel - Vrh nad Škrbino - Mahavšček - Lanževica - Travnikova dolina any drinking water source, except bottles in huts? I can go down a bit off peaks from path, but not more than 40 min either direction.

On map marked one spring near Travnikova dolina(Planina za Skalo), how it is in practice I don't know.

Best,

franca15. 06. 2022 21:46:30

Spring is between Planina za Črnim vrhom and Planina za skalo (usually at least drips), second right above secured part at start of Travnikova dolina. This one dries up in drought.

Thanks Franca!

When I went this route, under Rodica where planina Suha is at around 1400 m I found a water source. Where the 3 huts are, there was nothing. It was a bit higher, where there is a hidden bivouac and a reservoir. There it was slightly dripping, so end of June around 1.5 liters/30 minutes. I used disinfection tablets, because otherwise I don't know if it would be drinkable from that reservoir.

At the start of Travniška dolina it was slightly dripping. There end of June some 40 min for 2 liters of water.

Best

This time from Ruta up with PD Bovec. Since there was talk also of off-trail, such an invitation of course can't be refused nasmeh

Shorter off-trail part, which is not fully pathless but still a not too hard to follow track, is meant over Ovča suha. Nice little ridge that descends from Suha saddle to the lower marked path. The latter is also quite scenic.

Did anyone today hike to Rodica from Rutarski gozd? Interested at what height snow starts and what conditions. Thanks nasmeh

If you can "read" something from today's picture.

Road drivable to the starting point and there snow also starts. Not much new snow, crampons put on under the ridge. Footprints from one hiker, met no one.

After sunset it is most beautiful to me.

20.12.2022. Many teachings and ideologies teach us how man is imperfect. But life does not teach that. For birds there is a big difference if they are in a cage or under open sky. True bird singing starts only in freedom. And with man it's the same.(A. GRABAR) The trail was visible. You can reach the ramp by vehicle. Just park as far to the end of the road as possible because they haul wood. At least on Tuesday it was so. So you don't disturb anyone. The path ahead known to us in snow. Also the trail from Sunday was nicely visible. We knew it would cloud over in the afternoon. But surprisingly it wasn't. Only to the south clouds were drifting. Here beautiful views. We used winter gear higher on the path because snow was frozen. And left poles there. Since we returned the same path. Only we didn't know something and it wasn't forecasted that we would have strong wind from the sign to the top. We decided not to go along the ridge but below the ridge to the top. Had to watch the holes there. At top we didn't stay long because wind didn't subside. Probably erased tracks from Matej who went there Sunday. We descended the ascent path. And sighed with relief when we were on the path in no-wind lower where thermometer showed 10 degrees. At top minus four. And below on ascent minus two. Wasn't even too cold. Didn't meet anyone. On descent we looked at old linden in Rut. Really magnificent.
