Šmarna Gora for sunrise

Sunrise hunting on Šmarna gora

It’s nice to have a favorite mountain. Cozy, even. Having outgrown a mere physical activity, its visits resemble more to active social events since you meet the same people every day, while also the trail seems like an old friend with its same familiar challenges on every single step. The half-an-hour standard timing makes Mt. Šmarna gora a favorite daily excerise not only for me, but also for others living in Ljubljana or somewhere nearby. If I usually prefer late afternoon hikes, I decided today to trade those for an early sunrise ascent. It was worth it.

A fun hiking adventure with a 6-years old

It was neither an easy nor a short trail with 2,930 ft (893 m) of elevation gain and some sections covered in ice and slippery compact snow.

Kokrško sedlo, 5,883 Ft (1,793 m), is a beautiful mountain pass with spectacular panoramic views of a range of 8k Ft summits.
