Some photos from today's trip to Žingarica / Singerberg. I started the trail from the parking lot by the cemetery in Podljubelj / Unterloibl, then along forest roads to marked trail 654, along the mentioned trail to the summit.
I descended to Trnje / Dornach.
The marked trail is normally passable, partially somewhat overgrown.
Trail from Podljubelj or Podgora / Unterbergen, which is indicated as marked on some Slovenian maps, from about 7 a.m. onwards due to forestry works, is not passable.
Best, Tadej

After six years, the princess and I went to Žingarica again. Up the right path, direct, we descended around, over the Halbingsattel saddle. Paths are normally passable, no special features. After the tour we drove to Ressnig lake near Borovlje, where we enjoyed swimming in pleasantly warm water for a long time.

If I'm on the path with Tadej, there's always my pictorial depiction of the hike along.

This is a rather little-known peak in the Karavanke so close to the Slovenian-Austrian border. We drive through Ljubelj tunnel and already in the Čepa gorge turn left into the village Slovenji Plajberk-German Windisch Bleiberg. Here under the church in the village on the left side of the road is the parking lot and we park there. Then we go right past the church on the marked path towards our goal. The path is nice, not too steep, well marked - also with signs. We even go past an abandoned lead mine. Up we went over the Albnik saddle-German Halbingsattel. On the large vantage point there's a large cross and here is the summit register. We can walk on the comfortable wide mountain forest road, or detour a bit left to the ridge. In between we see even a take-off site for paragliders. Before the summit a bit of steepness awaits us. The summit itself offers no view, as it's among spruces. Marked with a summit stone. On the way though we get views of both Karavanke and Ture. Back we went over Vranica saddle-German Oreinzasattel. We jumped also to the nearby peak Rabenberg-1465m. Descended to the main road and past Bleibergov graben back from the other side to Plajberk.

Start of the trail in the village Slovenji Plajberk below this church in the village.

Plenty of directional signs. Here we turn left. To the right is the direct path.

Past that small stream which must be jumped over.

Further along the snowy wide forest road.

At the scenic point where there is this large cross with a box with a book for entries - no stamp.

To another saddle and then to the adjacent summit.

Rabenberg - 1452 m, here we meet our acquaintance from Žingarica.

Summit marker - the summit is hidden at the end of the road above the road on the left among spruces.

Tractor tracks on the road to the valley.

We slightly changed paths - path No. 656.

We would find ourselves - on path no. 661.

Back in front of the village from the other end.

We don't like going to Austria much, but afternoon errands in Klagenfurt dictated this time's goal. Not much choice at this end anyway, especially since the Drava in this season often fogs up thickly. The Žingarica appealed to us most, as we hadn't visited it from the north yet. For this we made a circular variant to the greatest possible extent so the path wouldn't drag too much velik nasmeh

.

Started in the village Kapla on the Drava and at the last houses found path 654. This mostly leads through forest, in the middle part more through former forest. The wind took its time here and shaved the slopes far around. Everything is cleared, but walking through such blowdown isn't too encouraging.

Soon we reached Žingarica, which is just part of a longer ridge. Doesn't stand out particularly, nor panoramic, but has a cross as usual for peaks around here. Continued straight towards Albnik saddle. In between a panoramic spot with a huge cross, which is visited much more than our peak. At the saddle we started descending into the valley and crossed slopes far to the right. In the hamlet Žingarica we grilled sausage and then only descent to the start followed.
