On a sunny September day, I decided to climb a few peaks in the Košuta mountain range above Tržič. Early in the morning I drove to Planina Šija:
On my way to the first peak, Kofce gora, I noticed how smoggy the valley was, even though it looked like it was sunny:
From the top, the trees looked so tiny:
My heart was singing and I kept stopping to take more photos:
A different panoramic view from the top ;)
Among the rocks, small red plants basked in the sun:
There are areas of the grassy slopes that are covered with heather:
The trail continues on the crest to Košutnikov turn, but I had to head back to the valley and home:
The hike was exhilarating! Breathtaking views all around and hardly any people around, which is great if you like solitude in the mountains - I know I do. Highly recommended!
The trip is described in more detail and with more photos here.
