Itinerary description

Turtel i Crkvište na Plačkovica
From third waypount there are markations for the route but we didn't follow them on our way up, there was a lot of snow so we decided to taka the road instead, trail is partially marked, but it is easy to navigate.
From Crkvište peak we didn't saw markations, maybe there are some to get you back to the road to Turtel.
This is very safe and light trail even in conditions when snow is deep.
There are lot of dogs, we had 6 of them following us from the start till the end, not agressive at all. They were our security companions 😊
Bellow Crkvište there is an army base, they have many dogs but they are behind the the fence, no danger from them either.
Road to our start point was in good condition and cleared from snow.

    Easy to follow and with great scenery. The way to Crkviste however was not clear and there was a big stop sign that forbid anyone to approach the army base.
