Traversing this via ferrata is a very watery approach to Kresišče or Maloško poldne nasmeh. The most fun spot used to be at the stream crossing, when we faced the waterfall and searched for footholds in the water (picture 16) velik nasmeh. They've now equipped that spot with a footbridge (picture 15) and the fun is gone zavijanje z očmi. But safety is greater nasmeh. Definitely recommended via ferrata after longer rain. Artistic impression will be greatest then velik nasmeh. Gaiters recommended.

I was there last year in August and really it's an adventure, at least for me who has short arms and legs nasmeh; needed quite some gymnastics to grab and cross the water, picture 8, second crossing is easier. Continued to Ostro peč.

This Sunday on this via ferrata. First impression: too short! mežikanje

Our Hvadnik, which lies almost opposite on our side and is also character-similar via ferrata, is at least once if not twice longer. Difficulty similar, maybe Hvadnik slightly harder even ignoring initial ascent, which is significantly harder at Hvadnik.

Further path: Mitzl-Moitzl Hütte, Maloško poldne, Kresišče, sedlo Jepca, Kepa, Berta Hütte and then about two hours trudging on forest road to Martinihof and from there on asphalt good half hour more to car.
