Also 2215m. It is located at the foot of Križ and Stenar, and slopes towards Pogačnikov dom...
Crowds of hikers passing by Dovška vrata 2176m every summer day (a major junction in our mountains) do not notice it, those few dozen šodrovcev, as Tone 'baptized' us, gladly add it to our list.
From Dovška vrata we descend a few meters towards Stenarska vrata 2295m. We constantly look to our left towards the mountain and when the path starts ascending again we step into the rocks. It is an easy off-trail route, we conquer the summit where a cairn awaits us in a few minutes... Good luck

Mali Peski are located above the Lake in Lužnica, specifically in the ridge between Škofič 2013m and Vrh nad Peski 2176m in Velike Peski. Below the ridge runs a marked trail from planina Kuhinja towards Prag 2068m.
When on the marked trail from planina Kuhinja we spot the Lake in Lužnica, we turn right uphill below the crags of Škofič; a clearly visible path on scree brings us to the saddle between Škofič and Mali Peski. The path turns left onto the ridge (new large cairn) and comfortably takes us to the summit part of Mali Peski. The ridge from the Škofič direction is, in the last meters just below the summit, collapsed, very narrow and precipitous on both sides...

From the direction of Vrh nad Peski, at the start of the ascent we pull away from the ridge to the left... when by feel, on shaky steps and holds, we grope our way up the ridge with difficulty to the summit, where a small cairn no longer awaits us.

The summit can also be reached via SPP from Prag towards Prehodci. A few minutes before the monument we turn right into the rocks...
Good luck

Glava za žlebom is an unmarked path with a capital letter, it impressed me with its rawness and millions of cubic meters of rocks and stones through which one needs to break through in the lower part. We leave the marked path from Dolič towards Kanjavec at the part where we notice a snow patch in the small valley. Snow is a relief for the legs before continuing, where we bite into the steep slope, the easiest passages we find on the eastern part of the mountain, difficulties for an experienced scrambler as Tone christened us are moderate, of an orientational nature and ease towards the top. When we reach the ridge, a world of precipices opens up before us into the Zadnjica valley, the views are fantastic. The ridge becomes wider and at the top offers plenty of space for rest and enjoyment.
You will see hikers on the path to Kanjavec, I am convinced that on this mountain you will not meet anyone. Good luck!

Yes, bo_zl, the described peaks are reached comfortably, it's easy off-trail, you just have to watch that you don't stray too soon from the marked path. For all three peaks, viewed from Škarije towards Planjava, you turn off the path from the west, meaning you have to go around the mountain to the ridge and then climb to the summit. Ridge crossing exceeds my abilities and is too demanding for me.
Good luck!

On the ridge between Ojstrica and Planjava in my records are Lučka Brana (Baba) 2244m, Lučka Baba 2331m and Vilice 2343m

I promised the hut keeper that I would post: The hut is open! Good luck

I consider Rjavec the most neglected mountain among us given its reputation, as it occupies the left three-headed prong in the coat of arms, if Mali Triglav is on the right.
Predecessors have nicely described both approaches. I just add that the notch and the 5m slab under the summit ridge are not a walkover.
I attacked Rjavec from the Planika-Dolič path, on the scree I got exhausted, if I hadn't walked in the shade and morning coolness I don't know if I would have conquered it. The scree constantly changes its base, steps must be prudent so we don't get carried too much downhill. From Planika to the top I panted a good two hours, back I handled the scree in 20min with Rjavec express... Good luck!

I skimmed the comments and want to ask how to pay for parking in Vrata in the morning for 3 days. Does the parking meter allow it?

Regarding 10-year-old comment by Mito 3000:
Descent from Mišelj Peak towards Na nizkem into Mišelj valley is adrenaline-filled. Last year I turned back uphill several times searching for passage to the valley. Finally quite exposed I found a gully where someone lost a green Adidas shoe and knew I was on the right "path". Everything else nice memories... Good luck

Travnik 2029m

From Logarska dolina past Klemenča cave along the marked path towards Krofička the majority of the tour follows.
When we reach the ridge of Krofička we will notice two marks on the rock. Here we leave the marked path and plunge into pathless terrain to the east. We have the wall always on the right, on scree we help with holds on the rock or bushes on the other side... Travnik is always visible on our left (east)
when we reach the ridge west is Krofička, our summit is on the left side east.
Ridge overgrown, passage can be followed.
On summit grassy carpet and big cairn awaits us. Good luck

From Gubno to Kepa, a few minutes off the marked path through pathless terrain, you can conquer Dovška Mala Kepa 2077m.
Good luck

Last Friday with my colleague we attacked Vrh kraj sten or Kraj sten 2311m.
Initially we thought we had to go right on the ridge (direction to the window), but later in fog and strong wind saw a cairn on neighboring peak...

I meant to hang this comment under excellent mdenac's post Zvoniki&Zadnji Prisank, since now there's an open separate topic I'm posting it here. Good luck

Great choice Felix, (was on Škednjovec yesterday) at least third of your suggestion is pathless or unmarked paths, think Slimat will have to find less extravagant variant. Marked.. good luck

Thanks for the reply. The picture's location matches the map from the link, there's some grass around the green summit too... maybe someone who's 'more at home' here will chime in and describe from which side or from where to best attack the Zelene Čuklje. I found- Taubi wrote an article in pre-last September under Veliki Babanski Škedenj and Zelene Čuklje, no photos (yet) attached...
Good luck

I'm glad, Tone, that you announced yourself, your path descriptions and especially off-trail ones I read every time I head into the unknown...
Are there on the photo on the right side perhaps Zelene čuklje 2170m?
Best regards, Gregor

Vrh Žlebi 2335m and Kamen 2315m

Kamen 2315m is indistinct summit in the ridge between Vrh Laške planje 2448m and Vrh Žlebi (Monte Slebe) 2335m
Also on this side for Vrh Žlebi given elevation 2317m, which doesn't hold if Kamen 2315m is measured correctly...
Good luck

The key detail to Mrzli vrh is in the marked circle of Zokipoki's photo from 2.8.21. I went up and down here (over the rock I pulled myself with hands and on the other side felt with foot).
To the right at the beginning I roped a bit and because of too much exposure and no hold that wouldn't come loose in hand I turned back. Good luck
