Uršlja Gora (Plešivec) 1699m

This afternoon on Uršlja Gora: a divine day. All paths hiked and lots of visitors on top. After such a day one recharges the batteries.

Yesterday's ascent to Uršlja from Ivarčkega and descent to Ledine. Paths excellently trodden. On the mountain winter idyll and huge crowd. More photos and route description on https://gorskimoz.wordpress.com/2017/12/04/zimska-idila-na-urslji-gori/

You keep posting beautiful photos from Uršlja Gora every day, and it's tempting me too. Which path would you recommend for someone who's never been to these areas? Is any winter gear needed or are small crampons completely sufficient?

Enka, except for gaiters (and even those are not mandatory), you don't need anything except good spirits!
All paths to the top are well-trodden.

Enjoy!

Oh super! Which path is the nicest? Maybe the sunniest one?

robi145. 12. 2017 23:37:01

The most sun is surely on the southern paths... nasmeh

You can go from Slemena (Ciganija) past Križana and across Šisernik meadows, then choose the winter/summer variant through the forest.
Maybe the winter one is less demanding at the moment than the summer one, as it goes along the road for quite a while (but it's a bit longer)...

Kal and Kozarnica are not trampled, meaning from Poštarski dom it's already not recommended. Usually people from more distant places come from there and I'm always wondering why they choose that path (I see it multiple times in winter).
From the Koroška side the winter one is most accessible from Ivarčkega (650m) or higher from Ledin (1070m). Crampons are sufficient.

What about this path: http://www.hribi.net/izlet/andrejev_dom_na_slemenu_urslja_gora_plesivec_/11/592/4935 ?

That's the path that robi14 recommended.

Enka6. 12. 2017 20:02:52

Yeah, I figured it out looking at the map, that it's that one jezik

. Thanks anyway!

Tomorrow still, then new 50+ cm of snow over the weekend! velik nasmeh

You think so?

Domch7. 12. 2017 20:26:12

I'll go on Saturday to check how it is.

Today's Uršlja.

At the top they forgot about the open windows and doors again. There was quite a draft.

Did you break trail to the hut?

guki9. 12. 2017 22:08:44

Do you mean summit-hut. That one was gone after 15 minutes, too much wind. If you mean from Ivarček to the hut, then one or two others bulldozed it.

karibu9. 12. 2017 22:19:12

I meant Ivarček-hut mežikanje

trail to summit anyway blows away before you get back to the hut.

Today up Fabriška and down via Kozji hrbet, nice loop tour as it should be. Fabriška is so trampled that I skipped it down via Kozji hrbet, where there were just some footprints and descent was nicely soft and not slippery. Over a meter of snow on top, so quickly gave up descending power lines. Lots of ski tourers, can ski to Šrotnek. Real winter, all day below freezing both up and in valley.
