Foggy and dull weather is still going strong, but we couldn’t keep inside for another day and so decided to go hiking to Menina Planina. We knew there might be some snow, but on our way to Vivodnik summit none of us expected to almost get stuck in heaps of snow – my snow gaiters saved the day! It was beautiful nonetheless. Well, my iPhone froze ofcourse, but luckily …

La cima Vezzena.
Tired but stubborn! We weren’t sure if another hike was a good idea after we packed our suitcases and our winter holidays were about to end. A whole week of skiing for long hours every day got our legs tired – and us a bit lazy. But the sunny weather outside was just too good not to take advantage of, so we decided to hike La cima Vezzena nearby …
Hiking in Italy.
Spending winter holidays in Italy with our dogs doesn’t only mean a lot of skiing – but also a lot of walks and hikes around our ski resort Folgaria. Mendi and Oto had so much fun when we hiked to Monte Finonchio the other day. We hoped to catch the sunset on the top and did just that, the view really paid off. We also took a late hike to Forte Dosso del Sommo …
First hike this year.
Low temperatures didn’t bother our pack as we decided to take full advantage of amazing sunny and clear skies on the first Saturday in 2017. Little tails were having so much fun on the snow that surprised us on our hike to Mont Krim. I believe it was also the first time for Mendi to experience and play with snow and she loved it as much as Oto does …
Sunny autumn.
Autumn started all sunny and warm and we’re planning to make the most out of it. We hiked to Otlisko Okno a few times before – it’s a fun hike, not too long and not too harsh, that leads you from the spring of Hubelj river to a huge hole in the rock on the top. It’s also fifteen minutes away from our weekend cottage near Otlica, so instead of a car ride …
Lunch in the woods.
An easy hike on a sunny day and one yummy traditional “jota” soup at the hut. Good times. We are re-discovering hills around Vipava Valley on the weekends that we’re spending in our hometown, so we re-visited Mali Golak last Saturday. Mali Golak is the highest peak of the Trnovo forest and is a popular hike for locals – it offers a lovely view plus …
Panorama.
The extended weekend that’s almost behind us was perfect for some hiking around our Vipava Valley. Although hills around the Valley are not really high, they still offer amazing views reaching Trzaski Zaliv and further. We hiked Mount Kucelj from village Vrtovin yesterday. We thaught it would be easier but the path is quite chalenging and steep …
Golica.
Views like this make me want to hike more and more. I’ve only recently became drawn to mountains and have only been hiking more frequently in the last two years – and I feel like I’ve been missing out on so much. I love the feeling of pushing yourself forward, the excitement on the top and of course – the views. Golica is a peak in the Western Karawanks and when on top …
