Nice greetings to all for whom the paths over Tirske peči are a challenge, relaxation or a place where you can throw your daily worries over the steep rocks... at least for the time while searching for suitable paths, as there are quite a few. Some almost invisible, others well trodden, the third, which was also a challenge for me, is equipped with a cable. The worm of curiosity started gnawing at me when my friend Marko asked if I knew about it? I had no idea, although I've already "crawled" over Tirske quite a few times and brought away some parts of a rusty stove, which I presume remained from NOB times???
Geppo, thanks. Besides my intuition, your photos were the only aid to find it already on the first try. Marko and I were thrilled with the path's execution. At the top we got as a reward a nice view of the eagle's nest and the nearby area with Kamnik-Savinja Alps in the background. Does anyone have info on what's with the eagle? It seems the nest is empty?! We continued the path to planina Golte, where from the top back we would never have found the path if we hadn't come from there. Super crossing! We descended via the hunting path in NW direction and halfway got lost and thus "rewarded" ourselves with an addition that demanded some scratches and scrapes, but they were forgotten when we finally reached the Tiršek farm where we had the car parked and at home over cold beer analyzed our successful exploration.
Tirske Peči belong to the landscape park established to protect the eagle. It chose a truly excellent strategic spot for its nest. But in its habitat it needs besides food also much peace, so I didn't describe the path we took with Marko, as I want Tirske Peči visited only by those whom the curiosity worm really gnaws too much to sleep peacefully. I think the hunters, most present in this area, will agree.
Warm greetings to all who are or will become lovers of this piece of wonderful nature.

alpin, thanks for looking at actions and not words... and lots of "mountain" pleasures... lp Nataša

Thanks for the congrats. I wish you too as many pleasant and memorable conquests... whatever they may be, bye

I made it! Grintovec was mine for a while. But only for a while, the wind blew so hard I couldn't even stand normally... good that I could grab the "table" showing peak directions and Andrej and Robert, two tough mountaineers, were with me; otherwise, I don't know how it'd end??? I proved again that luck favors the brave and if a bit... you know, no dilemma about not reaching the goal. Yeah, Saturday 14.11.2009, I'll remember forever. Also due to sad news early - Tomaž Humar's death. True, death is expected on such ascents but it shook us all. So we were even more careful and dedicated our ascent to him who flirted with death many times and stayed by his principles and goals. Good luck, Tomaž, wherever you are, and watch over us not yet destined to leave earthly beauties and who sometimes persist to reach the summit even in abnormal conditions. You'd understand. Sincere condolences to family and friends.

Respect to all fellow thinkers and mountain lovers,
Nataša

Thanks to everyone for the information. They are worth gold - regarding the trail to Grintavec. Just hoping for nice weather on Saturday and Grintavec will be mine... I wish everyone pleasant winter adventures.

Hi! I'm also interested if the trail to Grintavec is already trodden??, because I'd like to "conquer" it this weekend!
