Not much is written about this peak; people usually visit it in passing (Juš recently) or do not notice it at all. I heard about it for the first time less than two years ago when someone took it as the goal of their trip. I immediately warmed up to it and added it to my list. Yesterday was dedicated to it, which is why I also chose my topic title for it.

Yesterday there was not much traffic in the direction of Prisojnik; some went via the Grebenska path, some via the Slovenska. In my direction I met no one. Well, from the point where the paths split, that is in the area called Grintovci (I learned that from the description).

It was not only the path I walked that was special; the trip was also rich in terms of observing nature in general. Already on the ascent towards Gladki rob I noticed a capercaillie that was calmly moving among the grasses; a bit further I came across a white wagtail but did not manage to photograph it. On the top of a spruce I observed the rather rarely seen wallcreeper; immediately afterwards a herd of chamois descended through the gully under Turn. A marmot also fled in front of me. There were also plenty of flowers along the path, even edelweiss on the path.

The area between Prisojnik and Razor is very interesting and will surely be visited again soon. Just walking there is inspiring, as we often say that the path can also be the goal .

This path wasn't in the plan for long, the desire was too great .
We started at the Belopeška lakes, took path 513 and soon turned onto the quite steep path 517A and walked to the next path junction by a large boulder. Here we first saw the waterfall from the left side, which I didn't know where to look for before. But it shone strongly in the sun and thus drew attention to itself. I went quite close to it to have a better look.
Then the path became even steeper, and some parts are quite exposed, so one needs to be careful. In two places higher up there are cables and they are not unnecessary.
At the top by bivak Nogara we sat for a short time, there a Czech family was also preparing for the further ascent, but our plan was different. Below the bivouac we filled up water and descended back to the mentioned boulder, where we took path 517, which leads through a larch grove at the foot of the beautiful walls of Mangart, Koritniški Mangart, later Vevnica, Strug and Ponc. This is the Alpe Vecchia path, which really doesn't leave one indifferent. We didn't envy those who might have walked on these peaks at all, as the path is incredibly scenic, so we kept turning, a bit forward, then looking back, and the cushions of mountain avens also did their part. At the next junction we were tempted by the sign for Vevnica and we wanted a bit of its closeness, so we took its path a bit higher to see these walls even closer. Strug also attracted our glances and it seemed to us that there was still some snow right at the entry to the route.
Then we continued towards koča Zacchi, where we encountered friendly staff and also friendly prices. Coffee 2.5 eur, spaghetti 10 eur, mixed salad 6 eur. This really isn't exaggeration.
We returned via path 512.

If I repeat the numbers of our paths, they alternated in parts like this 513,517A,517,513A,513,512.
All in all a wonderful trip, it would be worth repeating in the time of golden larches, if not sooner, possibly also in a slightly different version

Darinka, diligent!

Excellent shots !!

Path above the stream Rio Resartico 702b + Anello Rio Serai

Well, this second visit came quite quickly, as unfinished paths demand their due.

We started at the parking lot near the village Povici di sopra, which yesterday wasn't as empty as last time. Three Slovenian cars caught my eye, where young guys were drying their diving suits at breakfast, but they were speaking English. We continued along and across Rio Resartico, where we admired views of the turquoise colored water, and occasionally also looking back at Monte Pisimoni, which was a constant companion on our horizon yesterday. At the second water crossing, we turned left at the sign and continued on a more or less transverse, not very narrow path, which was equipped with cables under the rocks, and occasionally we had to duck (once quite strongly), as the path also goes through a couple of short tunnels. That's why a helmet is mandatory equipment on the path. The rest of the path is among beautiful green meadows and among pines, which also offers wonderful views into the world of the Carnic Alps. So I can only recommend this path!

The second part of the path we continued in a loop above and across Rio Serai (tributary of the Resia river, which flows into it in the village Povici di sotto), which also offers views of waterfalls and pools and leads us on a quite varied path to the abandoned village Borgo Cros, where there are no longer permanently inhabited people. But some life can at least occasionally be felt. Quite quickly we descended from here and stepped again into the village Povici di sopra via an interesting little bridge.
Soaking feet in the Resia river.

Good! I always look at this peak whenever I'm in those parts . Not much is written about it, but whatever I find, I always read.

Super tour! But the path was long, wasn't it? Congratulations in any case

Just continue, in any case I wouldn't give new riddles

LISAC, continue with the riddle !
Maybe you took a little too much time (just kidding)

As far as I know, payment starts from 8 o'clock onwards

Rombon maybe?

So I'll answer quickly. The path from bivak Nogara to Travnik or the saddle is marked. But it's also possible from Belopeški via Plazje to the saddle. Look at the map right here on the forum under the trip descriptions.

yes, that's how it is when someone is no longer on this forum. I still hope he will change his mind and return the posts back as they were.

So we returned to Resia again, this time we chose Povici di Sopra as starting point and the path Valle del Resartico (702), so the path along the tributary of the Resia torrent. The path winds for some time along the stream, crosses it a few times and continues towards the bivouac named Ricovero Resartico with a nice view of the surroundings. Here the mountain view reaches right to Čuk, the beauty in the Carnic Alps. The continuation of the path is to the former mine (Miniera - 15 minutes) or Borgo Mineraria Resartico a bit lower, where they used to extract mineral oils from shale and thus provided public lighting for the entire Udine. Part of the mining tunnel is arranged and open for viewing. At the end even an open window into the ravine below Lopič.

Nice hike, which is more undertaken in spring and late autumn time, when there is quite more water and when crossing it one needs to manage on one's own. Well, at least that's how I saw it when I was looking at foreign posts. The whole loop takes less than 4 hours, you do less than 600 vm, and about 6-7 km. We continued to the Anello Rio Serai loop, but then on the way we decided to finish it on another visit.

Just give some more

Bedinji peak

Are the Muzci behind?

Yesterday over the peaks above Soriška, Slatnik, Možic, Lajnar... The grass is already turning yellow, it was very windy, horizons in desert sand.. at moments really wild. But I like that .
Same peaks, but views always different
