Zavrzeln - Rombon

Access to starting point:
First, we drive to the center of Bovec, where we head up the road that goes past the church towards Kaninska vas. We follow the road straight ahead, which soon brings us to a junction, where we continue straight. The left road descends into the village Plužna. The road then quickly brings us to the next junction, where we continue right in the direction of Rombon. Further, we drive to the spot where the road crosses a torrent (near the parking lot and the beginning of the path are mountaineering signposts and a spring).

Path description:
We start at the spring, where the blazes direct us onto the footpath (not the cart track), which initially ascends through a sparse forest. After 15 minutes of walking, the path enters a dense forest, where it continues moderately ascending. The path, which crosses some old military mule tracks, brings us after a little more than an hour and a half of walking out of the forest onto grassy slopes, across which we ascend in a few minutes to the mountain pasture Goričica, where a hunting hut stands.
Here a view opens towards the mountains located south of the Bovec basin, and we continue right on the path, which in a few more minutes brings us to a junction. We continue on the right (lower) path in the direction of Rombon (left Črnelska špica), which after a few easy steps brings us to the spot where there once stood a military hospital - ruins (to the ruins we have some 10 meters, and the memorial plaque is just a few meters from the marked path).
The marked path here turns left and crosses the last belt of forest. When we then step out of the forest, we will notice numerous military trenches on the right side (on the opposite side we notice a cross). The path ahead ascends along an already very worn mule track and leads us past numerous war remains. The path then flattens and brings us to the spot where a view of Rombon opens up.
We continue straight (right uphill to Čukla 3 minutes) along the path, which in a few minutes of gentle ascent brings us below the foot of the rocky cliffs of Rombon. Here the path turns left and ascends the scree at the foot of the walls. This quite strenuous path, ascending the steep scree, then turns sharply right into a distinct gully. Due to the considerable steepness, we carefully ensure we do not dislodge stones, as this can be deadly dangerous for hikers below us (on this section in early summer there may still be a snow patch). Higher up, the path brings us to the ridge, where the path from the fortress Kluže joins. Here we continue sharply left along the path, which steeply ascends over a short step. With the aid of natural holds, we climb one level higher (5 m). Great caution is required on this section, especially on descent.
The path then flattens and continues along the summit moderately steep slope of the mountain. We follow this increasingly panoramic path to the summit of Rombon.
Due to the numerous military fortifications, a headlamp is recommended.
