Zadnja Trenta (Flori) - Jalovec (via Jalovška škrbina)

Access to starting point:
From Kranjska Gora over the mountain pass Vršič we drive towards Bovec or vice versa, but only to the 49th hairpin turn of the Vršič road (near the village of Trenta). Here we turn onto the side road in the direction of the source of the river Soča. The road after a shorter ascent quickly brings us to the parking lot before the mountain hut Koča pri izviru Soče, but we continue left over the bridge and follow the road ahead to the parking lot at the end of the road (near the parking lot we notice signposts for Bavški Grintavec, waterfalls of Suhi potok and Jalovec).

Path description:
From the parking lot, we head right onto the footpath in the direction of Jalovec and the shelter Zavetišče pod Špičkom (the left path leads to Bavški Grintavec). The path, from which a nice view opens up at the beginning on the already mentioned Bavški Grintavec, quickly enters a dense forest, where it starts to ascend steeply. The steep path, which almost the entire time runs through the forest, brings us after approximately an hour and a half of walking to a junction, where we continue on the right path in the direction of Jalovec and Mali kot (left: shelter Zavetišče pod Špičkom, Jalovec past the shelter and Škrbina pod Gradom). The path, which still runs through the forest, brings us higher to the next junction, where the path from Vršič joins from the right. We continue straight uphill in the direction of Jalovec (left: shelter Zavetišče pod Špičkom). The path, which continues to ascend relatively steeply, soon brings us out of the forest onto increasingly panoramic slopes. The path, which mostly ascends along sunny-side slopes, higher transitions into more rocky terrain, where we also reach a junction. We continue left (straight: Jalovška škrbina and Tamar) along the path that crosses the slopes below Jalovška škrbina towards the rocky slopes of Goličica. The relatively easy path is then halted by the wall of Goličica. Before entering the climbing section of the path, a sign informs us that we will continue the ascent on a very demanding path. The path ahead, in a gentle ascent, crosses steep and exposed slopes, then turns right and begins to ascend the wall almost straight upwards. During the ascent of the Goličica wall, only a few sparingly placed fixed protections assist us. Higher up, the steepness eases, and the path brings us to scree, on and beside which we then ascend. The increasingly panoramic path then brings us to the spot where a view opens through the Jalovski Ozebnik into the Tamar valley. We continue along a slightly less steep path across the slopes called Jezerca. Next follows a short descent, and the path brings us to the spot where the path from the shelter Zavetišče pod Špičkom joins from the left. The path then ascends steeply again, and with a few fixed protections along locally quite exposed sections, it brings us to the main ridge of Jalovec. Further, we ascend along the narrow and occasionally very exposed ridge, along the path that higher brings us to the spot where the path from Kotovo sedlo joins from the left. We continue straight, and the panoramic ridge path quickly brings us to the summit.
