Itinerary

We park in an enchanting little village of Prtovč and start our round trip to Gladki Vrh, the most visited peak of the Ratitovec Ridge. Considering the weather, we take either the "Čez Povden" trail up and "Čez Razor" down, or the other way around. If the first trail offers more dramatic views of the steep face of the mountain, the other ascends slowly offering numerous spots for a break. Please note that it's about 1.5 hours to the Gladki Vrh peak for adults, which should make a 2-hour walk up for young families.
