I'm interested in Slomšek's Pilgrimage Trail.
Has anyone walked it? How is it marked, maintained, where do you walk (asphalt, ....), is there any special map, where could we sleep with a larger group of hikers?
In short I need as much information as possible so please respond!

Regarding the last entered comment on "Commented trips", which is really a bit old, asking if anyone knows how the path to Planina Korošica from Vranček is now? Still torn up? How with markers?
From path description I don't gather it's too steep, but among individual comments it's mentioned anyway. So what is it? Would it work with slightly problematic knees?
If not, can someone advise another path?
Thanks!

Best, Olga

from latest issue of Družina: Mass for all deceased and living mountaineers on Saturday 17 August at 11am at the cross on top of Storžič

best regards

Thanks mili for the answer. It was definitely useful.
With husband we were around Stol. From top we continued under Potoški Stol, Vajnež, Belščica. Path supposedly goes down also somewhere there where path to Vajnež branches (that's what they told us), but we went further because path really beautiful. Above hut (somewhere saw called shepherd's hut) which you see we descended pastures, crossed bit back to small bivouac on Belščica, there found sign for Valvasor and arrived Urbasa.
But have to comment path to Stol from Zelenica direction. Wanted from Vrtača cross unmarked but well visible path over Vatelca to Stol. On scree bit further where path branches to Vrtača we turned because path on very steep part (really short but still) torn and didn't risk. Returned to junction Vrtača-Stol and continued on "upper path to Stol.
Also quite awkward descent due to scree in gully to krnica V Kožnah. Also on scree under Stol summit some spots unpleasant for some esp descent esp maybe for kids.
Walked this path few years ago remember as better maintained and equipped.
But Prešernova hut has excellent still those old real caretakers! Bravo!!!

I'd like to do the path from Valvasor towards Zelenica, under Vrtača to Stol.
From Stol then via Belščica towards Medji dol back to Valvasor for the car.
I'm interested if on the way to Medji dol it's possible to turn, or if it's marked, via planina Stamare, Olipova planina, Potoška planina to Valvasor so no need to go to Javorniški rovt.
Also interested in the "upper" path supposed to be under Vrtača to Stol, not marked on map as marked - no need to descend to Kožne. Is it visible enough?

Thanks, Olga

Thanks, Lj!
We'll see; if we decide, I'll pass on the info.

Does anyone know if it's possible to sleep at some alpine dairy with the herders, in the hayloft..., on Fužinske Planine?
Thanks

Comprehensive answer, looks like from a real expert. We'll go for sure sometime.
Thanks!

Can someone knowledgeable suggest a two-day circular hike around and on Krvavec? Is overnight stay possible somewhere in between, in some hut, home?
Thanks!

Curious about the secured path to Peca? Suitable for 10yo kids who've climbed a bit here and there and love hiking otherwise? Via ferrata kit needed? Helmet?

Thanks!

mistake, the above question was about another trail

what about snow patches at this time? There are quite a few visible on the photos...
