Why This List?
Skiing from Baba
Routes can and should be described on separate pages, I know. But that is worth doing only for major routes, which need a description. However, there are many simple tours which are described on mountain or area pages with one or two sentences. But they might still be a goal for a nice day. So here I'm providing a comprehensive list of all ski tours in the Karawanks.
Yet, on the list there are only ordinary ski tours. Alpinistic descents, so the ski tours of degree D (difficult) and higher are not included.
For the grading, the Swiss Ski Tours Grading Scale is used. In its lower part the grades are:
| F - Easy (Facile) | PD - Less difficult (peu difficile) | AD - Quite difficult (assez difficile) | D - Difficult (difficile) | ||||||||
| F | F+ | PD- | PD | PD+ | AD- | AD | AD+ | D- | D | D+ | |
Karavanke/Karawanken - A Ski Touring Paradise
Bor Sumrada: On Pusti rovt
Only in highest regions Karavanke/Karawanken are steep and rocky, and so unappropriate for tour skiing. And that holds more or less only for northern slopes. All the highest summits can be skied down from the very top, but some ski tours are already alpinistic, requiring perfect conditions and the full mastery of skiing technique. Then comes the majority of Karavanke/Karawanken summits - rounded, not too steep, offering great panoramas, especially on Julian Alps. This is the paradise I'm talking about. Goals, appropriate for almost the whole skiing season, some of them also in a hard winter.
Stretching some 120 km in the West-East direction, Karavanke/Karawanken look very different from the southern and the northern side. The southern side is more grassy, opened, fine for skiing if snow conditions are good (not too late). The northern side is rocky on higher regions, through rocks some fine couloirs are cut, then some steep scree slopes come and then forrests, through which a network of forest roads is cut.

Down to the Veška planina a very nice ski tour, but from there it's still a long road down, and even longer up again on the Luža meadow, if there we started the ascent.

The road ascent till Dom pod Peco is long (depending how high we can drive). From there we continue towards the N and NW along the marked summer path. The ski tour towards the E is in good conditions very nice and also long (over the Riška gora).

Nice for skiing is the upper part – from the summit to Luže. Then the return traverse through the woods is less attractive, in good conditions it's better to use the NW ravine.
