| Kroficka (2083 m) from Klemenca jama |
|
|
Krofička is another peak, reachable from Klemenča Jama. For about 40-50 minutes the path is the same as for also described Strelovec. Meaning you start at the back of the hut on Klemenča Jama, pass the oldest larch tree in Slovenia, to the crossing where the left path leads to Strelovec. Here you go straight forward, follow the sign Krofička.
For a while, the path runs through the forest, but more and more great views start to open. Don't ignore them, after all, views are one of the main reasons you go to the mountains in the first place, right?
After a while the forest path is gone and pretty steep rocky part is here. Recently they've put iron ropes and pitons on certain parts and they are more than welcome. This part can be pretty tricky and demanding, so be careful. You can easily slip and that's something you really don't want to do here.
You can enjoy some spectacular views on the top: on one side Logarska valley, other Robanov edge. Ojstrica seem within a grasp of a hand. Take your time there. What can really spoil the moment here are clouds and fog. If you see any of these two coming it's a wise thing to get off the peak as soon as you can. Not a good experience to descent in such conditions.
The tour takes around two and a half hours up and a little less back. Be sure to have good shoes and, as always, plenty of water. I underestimated Krofička when I went up, it’s not such an easy tour as one might think.
