silvo195223. 01. 2020 16:57:16
The path from Planina Jezerca to Planina Koren is bare with some sections of frozen and icy snow. Only higher above Planina Koren is there more snow, hard and frozen; crampons are needed all the way to the summit of Korena.
More tomorrow on the Gore-ljudje website.

From the latest pics, conditions have not changed much. Yesterday's temperatures around freezing made snow - "trodden, southern" even in shady spots. In sunny spots no snow to Planina Koren anymore. Some reached Planina and even Korena summit without crampons - with them much easier.

Today first time on Krvavec and nearby peaks:
from P on Planina Jezerca to Dom na Krvavcu, over Veliki Zvoh along the ridge to Vrh Korena and to Planina Koren and back to P.

Surprisingly lots of people and interesting - almost all walked the mentioned loop in the opposite direction than us two. nasmeh

Interesting, varied and scenic trail, part with chains for variety. velik nasmeh
Views to nearby Kamniks extraordinary, abundance of flowers: on Krvavec all yellow from dandelions, first pasque flowers and gentians blooming, higher everything purple from wulfenia, never seen so much, almost the whole trail accompanied us!

Sun spared us this time and mostly hid behind clouds, also quite windy, so not too hot. Despite clouds views didn't fail...
On Planina Koren we treated ourselves in the bar - welcome refreshment on long trail! No snow anywhere anymore.

Mountain greetings nasmeh

I agree.
I can't imagine doing the same loop in opposite direction. Say, that part with chains is easier to tackle on ascent than descent.

Maybe people want to avoid ascent on paved slope to Veliki Zvoh, that one really wore us out. jezik But once you conquer it, you're at the top! Just ridge walking to Vrh Korena follows...

Anyway, interesting tour in world unknown to us until now. nasmeh

Today from Jezerc to Vrh Korena, before that to Košutna and Kompotelo.
Down over Ježev to Zvoh and Krvavec. Trail without special features. Lots of flowers on the whole trail.
Pri Florjan is still not officially open. But one can get some coffee.

For goodnight I have one more question.
Did maybe someone go today over Veliki Zvoh to Vrh Korena, to tell me if the trail is dry.

Again to Vrh Korena. Up from Jezerc to Koren hut and to Vrh Korena. The hut damaged by avalanche is repaired.
Down via Ježe to Zvoh and Krvavec.
Nice weather, path without issues, quite a few hikers too.

Somehow I didn't know where I ended up here up, ice axe, crampons came in handy. In shady parts snow mostly stayed frozen, in the sun it softened a bit.

I'm thinking of going early tomorrow morning to stretch legs for sunny sunrise. Anyone have local info on current road conditions to starting points? Snow overnight forecast, no chains, don't want to turn midway on road to Jezerca.. Anyone gone via Markova raven?
Thanks for all replies!

From Planina Jezerca to Planina Koren, as well as to the summit, the path is well trodden. It is possible without them too, but crampons are recommended.

Yesterday (Wednesday, 6 April) from Planina Jezerca to Planina Koren then to Vrh Korena.

A bit late, around 11am, I started this hike. Luckily it went well because two forerunners had made a quite comfortable track a few hours (or perhaps a bad day) earlier, by my reckoning. To Planina Koren the path was without issues, mostly snowy, sinking here and there on the slope under Krvavec. From the planina the track continued further, also on the old ski route. There too breakthroughs, not too often, but deep. Just below Vrh Korena the track (and I with it) headed directly up the ridge to the top, which brought some thrashing with snowy scrub. Won't repeat it, for those 50 meters next time I'd rather follow the ungroomed marked path a bit to the left and around.

Summit views beautiful, everything gave the impression of some fresh belated winter. Sun blazing as if on purpose, but black clouds coming from the south. No footprints over Jež, no other traces in the snow, but I think I spotted some colorful specks on Kompoteli, which could be people. Perhaps they reached the summit via Medvedje jame or who knows where.

Followed the forerunners' track to the start of the Jež path and then approximately down their trace to the path under Košutna.

Last ski day on Krvavec. Met no one, only on the return above Jezerci, where the first 100m of path is bare, a female ski-tourer with skis on her backpack.

It was a nice day. To me, walking on wet and breaking snow seemed quite tiring. Alone I would hardly have reached the summit. Therefore all the greater thanks to the forerunners who made the track. Sunglasses, sunscreen and gaiters are mandatory equipment these days.

Hello,
has anyone after the storms walked from Roblek farm to Planina Dolga njiva?
Is the path problematic anywhere?
