Access to starting point:
First we drive to Tržič, then continue driving towards Dovžanovi soteski and Lom pod Storžičem. At the end of Tržič, near the Lepenka factory, we leave the main road towards Dovžanovi soteski and continue right towards Lom pod Storžičem. Above Lom pod Storžičem we reach the village Grahovše, but we follow the road towards Dom pod Storžičem. After approximately 7.7 km driving from the junction at the Lepenka factory, of which 3.7 km is macadam, we arrive at the parking lot near Dom pod Storžičem, where we park.
Route description:
From the starting point we continue towards Storžič, Tolstega vrha and Kriška gora and take the first steps along the road by which we arrive at the lower edge of Planina Jesenje. Here a marked path to Javorniški preval branches off to the left, slightly to the right the road continues by which we can reach Mala Poljana, but we continue straight along the left edge of the pasture towards Storžič. After a short ascent we reach a wooden hut, where we continue left into the forest (straight Mala and Velika Poljana and Tolsti vrh).
The path ahead leads us along a cart track from which soon to the right a very demanding path through Žrelo branches off, but we continue straight towards the path over Škarjev rob. Further the cart track becomes steeper, higher it changes into a fairly steep mountain path. The path then initially mostly ascends through the forest, higher it thins out several times and the path offers us beautiful views reaching to Triglav. A traverse ascent to the left follows, then at an altitude of about 1700 meters we arrive at a marked junction where the path from Javorniški preval joins us from the left.
We continue right, then traverse upwards along the western slopes of the Škarjev rob ridge, from where we have a nice view towards the path ahead and Storžič. Higher the path brings us to the mentioned ridge from which we also get a view of the Jezersko side where we can nicely see the highest peaks of Kamniško Savinjskih Alp. We then ascend through a belt of scrub, then cross screes where in early summer we can still encounter snow patches. An ascent along the edge of the scree follows, then we reach the technically more demanding part of the path where we first cross a slightly exposed gully (if it is under snow there is a high risk of slipping without using winter equipment), then we ascend a steep valley which is exposed to falling rocks. In the upper part of the valley fixed protections assist us, the path then turns somewhat to the right. Another approximately 10 minutes ascent on a fairly steep slope follows and the increasingly panoramic path brings us to the top of Storžič.
Starting point - Planina Jesenje 0:05, Planina Jesenje - Škarjev rob junction 1:30, Škarjev rob junction - Storžič 1:30.
Along the route: Planina Jesenje (1137m), Razcep nad Planino Jesenje (1150m), Razpotje Škarjev rob (1670m)

The path is beautiful, as blooming flowers accompany us throughout the entire journey and there is no snow either.

12.7.2006 The tour over Žrelo is fantastic. Well secured and picturesque route is a real pleasure. At the top of Žrelo, a unique view of the Kranj region awaits you. The path further is very beautiful and you quickly reach the summit. From the hut to the summit 2.30h.

17.7.2006. We also went to Storžič over Žrelo. To experienced hikers, this path can really seem fantastic, but for me, it was a bit tight at heart here and there on the ridge. On the way, we saw a lot of flowers, including edelweiss, and on one of the meadows, chamois were grazing. Responsible parents had their children appropriately secured, but one six-year-old went up with his mom even without a helmet (!!!). Can you imagine ??? We also had a 6-year-old boy with us, of course with proper securing. We walked very slowly, so we used twice the predicted time for the ascent. We returned to the car over Škarjev rob.

Yes, it's really nice, but I was a bit hot. I was somewhat late, so I hurried a little (over Škarjev rob 2 hours). At the top, there was annoying insects, which there were really a lot of. I have to mention the really friendly staff in the hut under Storžič.

A better variant seems to be the ascent through Žrelo and return through Škarjev rob - nice circular tour.

18.8.06. We had foggy weather, the path through the gorge was quite slippery. We needed 2 hours and 15 min to the top. We returned via Škarjev rob. It was a nice tour.

Has anyone been up there recently? I'm heading out on Saturday and I'm curious about the conditions on both routes?
Thanks
|
|
|
|
| Gost25. 10. 2006 |
Both paths are dry. In case of fog, I advise against the path through Žrelo as it then becomes quite wet and slippery. Through Škarjev rob there are no major issues, only in the lower part the orientation is somewhat more difficult due to a lot of leaves on the ground. Plp

What's the condition like these days on Storžič? Is there snow already?
|
|
|
|
| Gost4. 11. 2007 |
Very little snow, none at the top anymore, possibly still some on the path through the Škarje but I think the path is safe enough.
Best regards and good luck

| Silence26. 01. 2008 |
Ascent along the southern slope, which proved a very good route since the snow held and nothing sank. Avalanche danger in this section is over. Return via Škarjev rob, snow is frozen, where there's a track it's mushy, so great caution needed. Weather 1A, just a bit windy on top. Lp
|
|
|
|
| NEIC00820. 09. 2008 |
In my opinion, the shortest and easiest path to Storžič. For an average hiker, max. 2 hours.
|
|
|
|
| Kriška20. 09. 2008 |
I think the easiest ascent is from Kališče, via Škarjev rob is still a bit more demanding.

On Sunday I would go with my wife from the hut under Storžič (via Škarjev rob) to Storžič, so I'm interested if there's still any snow and of course what the conditions on the path are like!

No more snow on Škarjev rob. Not even a sample. I went there a week ago. It's also possible to go via Žrelo.
Good luck!

Today's attempt on this path didn't work out
Too strenuous and too dangerous, my predecessor gave up after 1h from the hut under Storžič.
I also gave up after some trudging , and you still don't know exactly where the path is ! Need to take another path to the top.

Towards the top of Škarjeva pot, when the scree fields start, winter gear is still mandatory (at least ice axe and winter boots and helmet!!!) Barbi and I witnessed an unpleasant slip of two hikers a good 20 m!!! Careful

Yesterday we went up Storžič via the mentioned path. No trace of snow, great views even though it was cloudier. At least the sun wasn't beating on our heads. Up and down took four and a half hours, at Dom pod Storžičem ate excellent wild garlic soup and sausage in wine sauce. Super!

With my wife and younger daughter, we went yesterday for the first time to Storžič. Regardless of the impressive and respectable view of the mountain from the hut under Storžič, the path is unique. First a bit through the forest, then along the ridge and finally a little easy climbing. I also liked that except for what I think are two spots there is no real abyss where you can fall (and even there you're quickly past) . Personally, I would recommend a helmet for the last half hour of this tour.

Please, can someone tell me where to go so that in one day I go from Dom pod Storžičem, past Velika and Mala Polaba and planina Javornik to Storžič. Is that possible, is there such a path? Thanks in advance for the explanations!
|
|

|
| otiv14. 09. 2011 |
@ANČIKA
From Dom pod Storžičem go towards Tolsti vrh and to planina M. Poljana, where you turn towards planina V. Poljana and continue to planina Javornik and then to Vrh Storžiča. From the summit return via Škarjev rob back to the starting point. Paths to Storžič are all quite steep and require caution.
Good luck!

On Saturday (10.09.2011) I went for the first time to Storžič via this trail (over Škarjev rob) and I must say that both the trail and the mountain were the most beautiful so far for me personally.
In three hours (moderate hiking with a slow snack) you hike a very varied trail:
First a friendly path through the forest (not too steep and winding), then the forest transitions to a meadow with sparsely scattered trees and bushes, the trail becomes gentler and continues like that under the ridge among dwarf pines. Then the pines thin out and the nicest part begins. A view opens towards Jezersko and Grintovci (Kočna), but the trail turns from the ridge onto a short scree and into rocks. Just below the summit there are a few meters of cables (I used it only on the descent) in a steep incline and then after a few 10 meters of slightly less steep trail we are at the top. Along the trail there is a nice view of Julijce, Karavanke, Grintovci and Jezersko. From the top you can also see a large part of Gorenjska.

Yesterday afternoon I went down this path and there is still quite a bit of snow, which is frozen and hard. I recommend at least an ice axe.
|

|
|
| Domch21. 11. 2011 |
The trail in the upper part and scree is still covered with frozen snow in places and is dangerous for slipping. I recommend at least basic crampons and a helmet. One via ferrata cable is also missing at the end. PD Tržič to action.

hikers, hello.
tomorrow I'm most likely going to Storžič.
I'm interested in:
- if there's any snow on Storžič with surroundings
- if given the rain yesterday (at least where I am in Bela krajina it was quite heavy) the trail is fairly normal
- if I need to pay special attention to anything (in - and + sense) on the circular trail: dom pod Storžičem - Storžič (via Škarjev rob) - Bašeljski preval - dom na Kališču - Široka dolina - Krničarjeva koča - V. and M. Poljana - starting point dom pod Storžičem
thanks for help and nice regards.

hi,
this weekend I would go via this path to the summit and hut, but I'm interested in the conditions, regarding whether any precipitation is expected for this area.
And also, how far is it from the junction where left is Storžič summit and right to the hut. Does the path to the summit go past the hut or do you need to go to the hut first and then to the summit.
Thanks
|
|
|
|
| Miran Matičič7. 10. 2014 |
For the weather check the mountain weather forecast or the nearest location. If you mean Dom pod Storžičem, from where you park you don't need to go past the hut but go immediately left following the markers and signs.

|
|
| nordkap8. 10. 2014 |
Thanks MM, just wondering how far it is from the trail markers to the hut, since I also plan to go to the hut, at least for the stamp and tea.
Otherwise, I checked, this weekend from Friday onwards the weather will be better than in summer so yeah, let's go. I also plan Friday Skuta, Saturday Storžič, Sunday not sure yet.

| Macesna8. 10. 2014 |
Nordkap, it's 100 meters from where you'll park the car to Dom pod Storžičem. One short uphill on the road. You see the hut from the parking lot. Quite simple. Enjoy!

Strange that you didn't mention some of your already known word helium.
In short, the northern sides have plenty of snow and you need what the colleague above mentioned.
Good luck

helium well you do have a sense of humor too..wauuuu
otherwise you two, not you see, but you two, go somewhere else, because I think you've never gone on the mentioned path before. First visit it in summertime (without snow), then go up in conditions like today...

Thanks for the answers, some were useful and my friend and I have given up on the plan. We'll wait for summer and then go up, some answers were just more humorous, nothing wrong with that. Thanks once again to everyone and I wish you safe travels in the mountains, wherever you're headed.

I was on Storžič on 10.12. Up through the gully and down through Škarjev rob. No need for crampons. The path is indeed a bit snowy but not too bad. Caution is of course required. If the weather is good you can go without issue.

yes it goes without problems, I suggest you go up through Žrelo and down Škarjev rob, you'll make a nice loop

|
|
|
| Daaam21. 05. 2016 |
40 minutes to M.Poljane then another 15 minutes to V.Poljane.. then about half an hour to Krnicarja and then about an hour and a half to the summit. Descriptions are all up here, just combine two or three trips..

Today we went up this path with my son, back to Dom pod Storžičem via the southwest gully. Altogether 8.5km in under five hours. The summit was in cloud and cold wind, no views along the path either. The path is quite steep up and down, we took more time for the descent than the ascent. Next time in sunshine.

Hi.
Yesterday (20.5.2018) I went down via Škarjev rob.
Still a lot of snow, not only in the gully below the summit, but also on the marked path lower down. The snow is soft, but due to the steepness I would advise against descent without crampons and ice axe (I wouldn't tackle it without gear and would turn back).
Up via Žrelo you step on snow 2x - no problem.
For ascent and descent from Dom pod Storžičem without winter gear, the current option is up through Žrelo, down via SW ridge to the bench, across to Javornik and via Polana to the start.
Best regards!

Comparison of this trail with the one over Kališče? Is the one from Kališče really much more exposed?
|
|
|
|
| michael6614. 06. 2018 |
Where on earth are these two trails even exposed 
|
|
|
|
| Enka14. 06. 2018 |
Well, it depends a bit on how sensitive one is to exposure. It made me dizzy here and there over Škarjev rob, but nothing serious. They told me there's more exposure over Kališče, so I'm asking.
|
|
|
|
| fpetel115. 06. 2018 |
If it went over Škarjev rob, it will go over Kališče too, which I think is easier. It's secured and you can hold onto the pines on the harder section.

Writing from memory, but I dare say it is not drivable.

Only with chains. The last kilometer is solid ice. You also need a high car, because the road from the tow is quite damaged in places.

You reached their summit and not the other way around..

| lanževica23. 07. 2019 |
Regardless of who reached whose summit... the fact is that the Storžič summit is so "shat" by sheep that there's nowhere to sit... it's been like that for years and obviously bothers others too...
|
|
|
|
| jetamp23. 07. 2019 |
I join @lanževica's statement.
It bothered me greatly and also those hikers who were at the summit. They stamped and retreated to the meadow with comments, which is less shat.
|
|
|
|
| djimuzl24. 07. 2019 |
I suggest to the editor to change the difficulty of the summit based on the latest comments

| simon7924. 07. 2019 |
Not that bad (for gaiters), but for sandals yes. Indeed quite soiled, but you just step a couple of meters aside to the clearing and it's fine, after all we're in nature and not on Bavarcu. Personally, I prefer Storžič summit with all its ground and smell to the center of Ljubljana. LP and happy hiking.

| Lazo28. 05. 2020 |
This path to the summit is really great. There's very very little snow and you can easily bypass it.
Here I'm also posting a video so you can see if you're capable on this path.
We needed a nice 2.5 hours with stops.

Great. But the ascent video is, to put it mildly, awful. Just watching it gave me a headache. Lp

pantani1 thanks for the feedback.
I myself am aware that the ascent video is too fast and I'll make sure the next one is better and clearer.

Nice shot otherwise, but you have to put yourself in the role of a marathon runner who's in a little hurry to the finish. It'll be better. At normal speed, watching the whole ascent will be quite interesting.

At the end of the gravel road there is a sign prohibiting traffic in both directions.

On 25.7. when I parked at the hut, they were renovating it. In addition, wood harvesting was taking place, so it's possible that the prohibition sign is intended to keep the works undisturbed.

Just back from Storžič. Wonderful day, exemplary marked trail, food 1a at the hut below! A bit below the summit where there are two ropes one piton has been pulled out, but that doesn't make the path more dangerous. In short, it was worth getting up in the middle of the night

What is the condition of the road to the hut like?

Gravel. Slowly and in first gear

We're planning a trip to Storžič next weekend, is it safe, can we get up without crampons etc.?

Without winter gear it won't be possible.

Hello, is there any path suitable for a medium-sized dog? Which path has the longest period without snow and approximately from when to when? Thanks

Is the path over Škarjev rob already dry?

| cofka5. 06. 2024 21:19:46 |
The path over Škarjev rob is ok. But there's still snow in the Petega žrela area. Need to wait a bit more to reach the summit safely😊

Saw on FB that there's no problem. Also via the climbing route.

A week ago I descended here.
One snow flank was still so large that I bypassed it exposed. In my opinion, at least an ice axe is still necessary here.

Hello,
I'm interested if there is still any snow on the Škarjev rob path.

Do you have some problems with droopy eyelids? If you had looked just one line higher, you would have seen the answer to the same question.

Hello Mr. mirank
I am a long-time mountaineer and wouldn't expect such a response from a true mountaineer. Just a little intermezzo, now we're doing the fifth Slovenian Mountain Trail. In the mountains, it's not elegance but caution and respect for the mountains and hills. My eyelids are fine thank God and my eyesight hasn't failed yet. But it's true, I missed your comment. Lp.

usually I don't reply twice, just hope you now know how it is over Škarjev rob

|
|
| JanezAS10. 06. 2025 07:51:20 |
Thanks "garmont". Tomorrow 11.6. I'll go over the Rob. Just in case I'll take the ice axe.
I agree with Slavko that etiquette of communication and mutual respect is important everywhere, also here on the forum, and especially in the mountains. Mountains temper us, also for the good. That's why they are.
Good luck and best regards to all.
Janez

Today 10.6.2025 I went to Storžič up through Žrelo and down through Škerjev rob. Current conditions on both trails are completely dry, without crossing any snow. That snow field from a week ago has already shrunk so much that the trail goes right under the lower edge of the snow. Therefore, winter gear is no longer needed. Good luck to everyone and steady steps.

Is there also paid parking in front of this hut (and how much)?
|

| asdf10. 08. 2025 18:13:05 |
Last time I was there (once in May) it wasn't paid.

Has anyone been to the summit via Škarjev rob in the last few days? I'm wondering if there's still any snow?
|
|
|
|
| ppegan1. 05. 2026 06:19:51 |
There's still snow on the northern side of Storžič. I don't know what the actual conditions are like over Škarjev rob. But it's not a bad idea to have crampons and an ice axe in your backpack, right?

Has anyone been to Storžič recently, via Žrelo. I'm wondering if there's still some snow.
Thanks

I was there yesterday, there's no more snow on the path.

On trips, a whole bunch of paths to Storžič are described, but the path from planina Javornik via Javorniško sedlo and then Škarjev rob is not among them ... But that's okay. The unknown part of the path, that is, before it joins the more frequented one that goes from Dom pod Storžičem via Škarjev rob, is really beautiful and runs through wild terrain; the trail, although officially marked, is somewhat less visible in places. A good week ago, when I ascended Storžič via this variant, it was beautiful and lonely.

Very beautiful path that contains everything: some forest then the ridge part where beautiful views open in all directions and at the end a bit of steel cables and climbing…. In the morning we also had a wonderful flight of a herd of chamois.

Here it says the ascent time is 3 h 5 min, but on the board below by the parking lot near the Dom it says 4 h. In my experience, 3 h 5 min is quite an optimistic estimate, while 4 h has some reserve.

@zdenkob
As you wrote, this is your experience, times are really needed for planning the tour ...
but each according to their own ability and purpose.
LP!

|
| Trobec8. 10. 2026 16:35:58 |
The time estimate is quite realistic according to the "formulas" for how it is calculated. Many will arrive faster than what is written, while some will also need more time. Besides one's own fitness, it also strongly depends on how "familiar" someone is with more demanding and more exposed routes.
