Throughout I had a Logbook with me where I collected stamps, but at the end it accidentally fell into the sea. What now? Am I entitled to the badge? Is anyone willing to go as a witness before the Trails Commission at PZS?

The stamp for Gomila is in the cache box at the viewpoint tower. I was there two weeks ago.

Košenjak - memorial to the tragedy on the path over Kozjak

I read with interest the article on the 60th anniversary of the Slovenian Mountain Trail. But some inaccuracies bothered me, which I'd like to highlight, namely they write:

- SLOVENIAN MOUNTAIN TRAIL IN NUMBERS:
Opened on 1 August 1953, had 80 points.
Initiator and mastermind: Ivan Šumljak.
Number of points: today 75 control points since 2011 (2003-2011: 71 control points, 1993-2003: 69 points (in 2001 one point changed), before 1993: 80 control points).

I'd add that SPP before 1958 only ran to Postojna (stamp at PD secretary) and there were fewer CT.


- climb to 23 wonderful peaks,

There are considerably more (on "Po robu" path at least 5).

- accompanied on entire SPP by red-white Knafelc marking with number 1.

Not true, since markings on several sections, e.g. between Podkraj and Abram, are not traceable, on Senožeče - Vremščica section no number 1....


So far around 9500 hikers have successfully walked the Slovenian Mountain Trail, to whom exactly as many badges have been awarded. In PZS records as first recipients of honorary badge for walked trail listed: Pregrad Pašič, Beograd (1958), Dušan Starčevič, Beograd (1958), Lojze Hafner, Ljubljana (1958), Marjan Ribarič, Ljubljana (1958), Ema Trbovšek, Ljubljana (1960), Franc Bračko, Hoče (1965), Stanka and Tome Demšič, Hoče (1965).

Not true, as records list the following:
1. Predrag Pašić, Beograd
2. Franc Šolar, Koper
3. Borut Juvanc, Maribor
4. Drago Glogovšek, Maribor
5. Norbert Voj, Maribor
6. Margetič Rudi, Celje
7. Jovan Marković, Sokolov Kamen
8. Slobodan Stanišič, Sokolov Kamen
9. Tomislav Savić, Sokolov Kamen
10. Ivanka Mohorič, Kranj

B2,

on the website of the commission for European long-distance paths there is a forum where quite a few words are dedicated also to the Austrian part of the trail (also about the stage from Leobna or Bruecka towards Speikkogl).

link: http://eupoti.com/keups.htm

Would suggest section of Austrian trail E6 (NordSuedWanderWeg) between Brueck and Speikkoglom (Koralpe), which could extend via Košenjak to Dravograd. About five-day crossing of ridge between 1300-2100m.

B2, everything you wrote holds true as if nailed down.

Path from Nanos to Predjama is marked, along markings you can still spot the old "1". From Predjama to Postojna no markings and never were (PV 1955/11). From Postojna to Lonica some markings without "1" can be spotted, section between Lonica and Slovenska vas is well marked but routed completely elsewhere than SPT 1 went. Namely the "real" path went from crossroads on meadow half hour below Trojica straight through forest, crossed road right by training ground sign and descended on southern slopes of sharp peak (now overgrown) to gravel road and along it on NW side of Petelinjsko lake to Slovenska vas where stamp still today in el. cabinet at Vadnjal (house empty few years). From Slovenska vas over Petelinjek, Osojnice, Volč to Vremščica path well marked, only "1" hard to spot.

Hostages, Postojna - Sv. Trojica path

Has anyone recently walked the "real" Slovenian Mountain Trail specifically on the route Nanos - Predjama - Postojna - Lonica - Pivka - Vremščica?

Based on the logbook in Slovenska vas, I conclude that for several years no one except me has been there or hikers simply don't know the location of the book and stamp at Vadnjal.

I happily pressed the camera the entire way and collected evidence - pictures. But all in vain... While I was bathing, the camera most likely became the target of some bather, since when I returned to the beach the camera (oh misfortune) was no longer by the backpack!

This peak doesn't remind me of a tick at all!

During vacation I also visited Biokovo - did part of Biokovo partisan trail (KT 9 - KT13). It's interesting on this path that there are no stamps on KT but only KT mark. In the logbook need to stick KT photo.
