Rudno Polje to Mrežce Wednesday, 11th July 2012
Scroll down to see photos of the walk
Early morning mist hangs in the valley
The war memorial . . .
where artefacts of war are used imaginatively . . .
to remember those who have fallen . . .
and whose names are listed here
The Biathlon training centre . . .
where 'skiing' . . .
and shooting . . .
are the order of the day
The start of our walk . . .
takes us beneath the ski lift . . .
where a solitary cow . . .
browses in the meadow
Then we climb up the ravine . . .
and take a well-earned break at the top
Time to admire the flowers . . .
that we pass . . .
as we walk through a meadow
Then we reach . . .
a limestone basin . . .
where we catch site of the C+ group . . .
descending from Viševnik . . .
on their way to . . .
a nearby saddle
Time to continue on . . .
to look down into . . .
the Krma Valley . . .
with its huge limestone cliffs . . .
and take time out for a break
Climbing up through meadows . . .
with delightful patches of flowers . . .
to reach the summit of Mrežce . . .
where we take time to adjust clothing . . .
and take in the views . . .
in all directions
The mountains are just amazing
Time for refreshments at the Blejska Koča
