A while ago andi2 mentioned four thousanders in the Dovrovlje forum, which fit in as a smaller natural reserve full of natural beauties between Menina and Dobrovlje. It's about four peaks that can be nicely connected into a meaningful whole, that's why I opened this thread.
Today's circular route: Lipa, Smolnik via SE ridge, Predkovica, Medvedov hrib, Žlajfe, Jeseničnik homestead, Lipa.
The hiked loop is partially demanding pathless terrain, easy pathless terrain and easy marked trail between Jeseničnik and Lipa. Terrain for hikers with steady step, as there is lots of rocks and branches that hinder walking. Greater dangers are cliffs on the north side (if you stray or explore) and slip risk during descent from Žlajfe. Definitely a world worth respect.
Walking time 4h with stops.
Not sure about the name Žlajfe. Took the name from a forum post. On three maps at home, no name anywhere for this wild viewpoint.

Very interesting area, quite wild in places. When the 'kletke' open, it would be worth coming.

Good job Zoran, really beautiful places. There under Žlajfe (yeah, I don't know if it's the right name, will have to ask a local) I was sure I was in some Sci-Fi movies, everything so deserted and decayed. And some memory of a mass meeting I carry, which I purposely won't explain in detail. I heartily hope civilization's foot never enters this mini reserve. lp

This area is uninteresting to commercial eyes and doesn't attract everyone, which is good. I can confidently say it's a small reserve that successfully hides from civilization, although it breathes right next to it. At times an anxious world permeated with prehistoric spirit is perfect for many unpredictable encounters, even third kind!

Encounters of the third kind?  Want to deter us 'non-locals' from invading your secret corners?  You're right, as it quickly gets trampled, littered, noisy.... too urban.

No way little guy! Quite opposite! Humans walked here and will. Can't shake the thought forgotten forest hides more than first glance shows.

I think today with Lipe it's the third time in these areas. They have a special charm, so they grow to the heart Especially if you're in good company The extended loop was about 5 hours long, to calmly view some additional features and catch some sun rays. Briefly: the section of the abandoned path (green dots) on the third picture. The marked path has long been gone here, though it's still shown on the Hribi.net map. The approximate course of the true variant is along the blue dots. The abandoned section crosses beautiful forest areas, but then the farm issue, likely the reason for abandonment (marked as private from both sides). The owner was friendly and barely managed to stop the breathtaking dog pack, the rest of the path is probably better left to locals and hunters. lp

Today Janez and I treated ourselves to a nice morning ramble in these corners. Some glimpses in the video.
Good luck!
