Veliki vrh, Dleskovec

Today I climbed to Veliki vrh. Parked at Planina Podvežak (road OK). From there along the marked path towards Molička planina, then along the path marked with many cairns to the summit. Almost no snow left on the path, only on one snowfield below the summit I used my ice axe.
Descended via Planina Vodole along the marked but quite overgrown path to the car.

Here, a year has passed since the last entry on this page.
Today from Planina Ravne to Veliki vrh, Dleskovec and back via Dolga trata.
When ascending to Veliki vrh from the east side, you need to cross some snowfields. The marked path is under snow, so I made my own way to the summit. Descent to the south side is not problematic.
The turn-off to Dleskovec is marked with a cairn and it's quite right, as access to the summit is quite difficult elsewhere due to dense bushes.
Weather excellent, company too!

Towards Veliki vrh. Here I put on my gaiters.

The eastern side still has quite some snow.

The only fairly snow-free ascent to the summit.

The marked branch-off to Ravne is still deep under snow.

Nice photos, hey, I can hardly wait for this snow to melt, this Dleskovec plateau has grown close to my heart...

Yesterday we were on Veliki vrh, unplanned. Our first goal was Lučki dedec. When returning to Podvežak, we decided for this peak too. We didn't know the path, so of course we missed the left turn-off towards Veliki vrh summit and circled the whole hill to the saddle with Dleskovec and from there ascended to the summit along the marked path. Below the summit there's a very steep snowfield left, better to bypass it without winter gear (feasible). Of course we looked for a shorter way down, but ended up at the summit part of Dleskovec, didn't find the path to Podvežak, so returned the way we came up. Nice in these parts, just a bit long because we didn't know the paths. Next time better.

@vespa the path to Podvežak from Veliki vrh starts on the south side from the saddle between Veliki vrh and Velika zelenica. The path is marked.
Best regards!

A few days late post, which I hope zadrega

won't count as evil, especially since I see there are few descriptions here. Veliki vrh and paths around Korošica haven't given me peace for some time and last weekend it "happened"; peak that rises markedly over 2100m along the path to Korošica, is undemanding, has much less visits than its famous 240m higher neighbor, but no less beautiful and panoramic; there are several approaches, we chose the one described on this forum from Planina Podvežak over Prag; on the summit you can indulge in views that are a feast for the eyes – lower at the foot countless paths intertwine like spider webs towards Korošica, queen Ojstrica looms almost within reach, opposite Tolsti vrh beckons, a bit further in the distance Lučki Dedec and Korošica, below you can see "resting" hikers at the chapel on Molička planina and deep under your feet the view reveals a precipitous descent into Robanov kot, then towards Strelovec and behind Raduha; the path and turn-off are well marked with blazes and continued with numerous cairns, so in pleasant company of a new acquaintance and mountain lover we unerringly and quite quickly "flew" to the summit adorned with a mighty stone cairn, and of course continued along the ridge another 10 min. to Velika Zelenica; on the way back we quenched our thirst with the friendly hut keeper at Planina Podvežak, where there was quite a crowd, mostly returnees from Ojstrica, which was almost besieged like "father" these days; nasmeh

Veliki vrh temptingly beckons along the path to Korošica - route via Molička peč.

along the path view of renovated spring.

in between the so-called green valley for resting eyes and legs

well, I finally made it once to Aljaž Tower :)

this queen of the KSA is really beautiful

Because it surprises me, since you're close to home and haven't been to VV yet.

When the sky opened behind Kranjski rak, it was easier to breathe too. Start at Planina Ravni(e), road there quite OK. The planina was completely deserted, only a few foals still adorned it. Along the marked path left of the hut to Planina Dolge trate (really enchanting planina). On the planina right along the unmarked but trodden path to Dleskovec to seek views. From Dleskovec then descend following cairns to the connecting marked path towards Korošica. Quite soon new markings lead us right into the slopes of Veliki vrh and Velika Zelenica. From the edge of Velika Zelenica deep view into Robanov kot, to Krofička, and of course Ojstrica dominating in the foreground. From V. Vrh descent first along the ridge ahead, when the comfort of descent ends, then left down. Following cairns (but they are brownish) will bring you effortlessly via a gully back to the marked path from Korošica. At the marked junction right along the slopes of Dleskovec with slight ascent back to Planina Dolge trate and the loop is closed. A bit more and start is here again. Weather held, although at the end mists wanted to brew. Nice tour, nothing too demanding, if you want extensions, there are countless. No one besides us. Just two sheep at the saddle, lost as it seems, but already with new winter wool.

on a nicely cut path towards Planina Dolge Trate.

Planina Dolge Trate, the path to Dleskovec leads to the right, where the path is visible.

Towards the summit of Dleskovec, almost a two-thousander

Already on the path towards V. Zelenica and V. Vrh, now marked

View back, little man standing on Dleskovec

In the foreground Križevnik, to the right Raduha, in the back Peca and Olševa

A little more and it will collapse on him

Yesterday a wonderful day on Veliki vrh. From Podvežak pasture to Prag, from there towards Sedlec and to the summit. Descent towards Molička planina and return to Podvežak.

The path is nicely marked and maintained, the road to Podvežak in very good condition. Wonderful day in the mountains...

Luckily weather forecasters don't always get it right. velik nasmeh

Today across Dolga trata to Dleskovec and then up the eastern gully to Veliki vrh. To the gully entrance we went our own way, then nicely cairned path to the summit.
Descent from Velika Zelenica along the edge and nicely cleared path past Polšak pasture to Ravne.
From Polšak pasture now, besides red dots, orange circles are appearing. zavijanje z očmi

As I said at the start, despite bad forecast, perfectly nice day. nasmeh

Jacket that I found under Dolge trate and hung on the hut.

To the gully entrance off the marked path.

Just below the summit the views open up.

Of five I caught only this one... barely.

No livestock on Doga trata pasture, but I saw a chamois there. On Planina Ravne the owners were in the shepherd's hut, but no livestock seen.

Nice weather lured us into the mountains. By car to Ravne pasture, where larches glowed in sunlight. We did a circular tour over Smrekovec below Dleskovec to Veliki vrh and Velika Zelenica. Views excellent. Caution needed on ascent to the plateau between summits. Some ice under snow cover. We returned below Dleskovec, climbed its summit and descended the southern path past small lakes in dolines to Dolge trate and back to start in forest shade. Not much snow in forest, but wet and slippery.
