Closed (descent) path from Gradiška tura

Vipava Mountaineering Association informs that the lower part of the demanding mountain trail leading to Gradiška tura is CLOSED due to a major rockfall and damaged safety equipment.

CLOSED is the demanding mountain trail that leads below the Luska sport climbing sector and between the two very demanding mountain trails (between Furlanova and Otmorjeva) leads towards the summit of Gradišče ture.

The mentioned trail is most commonly used for descent after climbing the aforementioned very demanding trails.

The CLOSED trail leads to the start of the very demanding Otmarjeva trail, so access from the valley to the trail is not possible. Access to Otmarjeva trail is possible via the very demanding Furlanova trail and connection.

Descent from Furlanova and Otmarjeva trails and the summit of Gradiška tura is possible via the summit of Plaz (north of Gradiška tura) or the summit of Konj (south of Gradiška tura).
