59) From Logarska dolina to Jezersko - 07/Nov/2015

We did this same hike a few years ago, but without the kids.
Now they are big enough to handle long hikes, so we took them with us.
The trail begins near Rinka waterfall in Logarska dolina.
In November, the waterfall is reduced to a tiny strip of water.
Above the waterfall, there is the source of Savinja river.
In a few minutes, we reach Okrešelj which is surrounded by some beautiful mountains: Turska gora, Rinke and Mrzla gora.
The hike becomes a little steeper, as we make our way up to Savinjsko sedlo (2001m).
This is the highest point of the hike, and it lies right on the border with Austria.
The second part of the hike is basically descent from Savinjsko sedlo, all the way down to Jezersko.
We pass north faces of the highest peaks in Kamniške Alpe range: Skuta (2532m), Grintovec (2558m) and Kočna (2540m).
The video shows a short stop at a hut named Kranjska koča na Ledinah (1700m), and then it ends with an evening view of Velika Baba (2127m).
Days are short in November, so we arrived to Jezersko in the dark.
