The Scenic Drive to Krma Valley and Initial Hike

The adventure kicks off with a scenic drive to Krma Valley, a picturesque starting point for the ascent. The hike begins with a gradual walk through forested areas and meadows, providing an easy warm-up before tackling more challenging terrain.

The trail gradually gains altitude, with views progressively improving as hikers move above the forest line onto solid limestone terrain. The journey offers stunning vistas of the surrounding Julian Alps and the lush landscape of Triglav National Park. This gentle start prepares climbers for the more demanding sections ahead.

Lunch Break at Kredarica Mountain Lodge
