Itinerary description
Vrata Valley - Bivak IV hut - Skrlatica summit - Kriz summit - Vrata Valley , (Julian Alps, Slovenia)
Itinerary performed in two days as part of a four-day-trip in the Julian Alps, Slovenia, in October 2022.
Here is the other itinerary we did, climbing Triglav
Day 1: Vrata Vallet - Bivak IV hut
Distance: 5.4km, Ascent: 1118m+, Descent: 130m -, Max Elev: 1986m, Min Elev: 992m
Start: 17:16 End: 19:37 Elapsed Time: 2h 21min
Sleep: Bivak IV hut
Day 2: Bivak IV hut - Skrlatica summit - Kriz summit - Vrata Valley
Distance: 16.8km, Ascent: 1277m+, Descent: 2258m -, Max Elev: 2635m, Min Elev: 999m
Start: 07:50 End: 17:55 Elapsed Time: 10h 05min
Sleep: Aljazev dom hut
The trail is well marked (see map picture). The first day we walked from Vrata Valley until Bivak IV hut, where we spent the night.
The second day, we left part of our equipment in the hut. First we climbed Skrlatica summit. Most of trail is easy to follow. The last part goes through a rock wall and is equiped/assisted. Then we went down to the hut and since we had some time left, we climbed the Kriz.
Bivak IV - Skrlatica took us 6h (up and down), and Bivak IV - Kriz 2h (up and down).
Finally, we went back to Vrata valley again passing by Bivak IV hut, where we picked the equipment we had left.
It is possible to make it a round trip, going from Skrlatica to Kriz without going thorugh Bivak IV and going from Kriz to Bivak IV through a different trail. It is also possible to add Stenar summit, which is close to Kriz, and to make it a round trip down to Vrata Valley passing by Pogacnikov hut (see map picture).
