Approach


The starting point is the macadam road that goes from the valley Kamniska Bistrica in the secondary valley Korosica. It depends from the conditions how high you will drive with your vehicle. In Winter time is not transportable but you have very nice descend with skiies.

Route Description


The road end on the altitude around 980 meters and then you follow the signposts on marked route through the nice forest. Soon you will reach the first meadow that is called Zgornja fratina. There is also some shepherd's house. From the left comes here the marked route from the skiing area Krvavec, from the meadow Kriska planina. But you continue on the marked route that goes in the north direction and soo you will reach the east ridge of Veliki Zvoh and now you have an amazing view on whole valley below the Veliki Zvoh, Vrh Korena, Kosutna and at the end of valley on Kompotela. You descend some meters and you will come to the second meadow Planina Koren (1675m).

Here you leave the marked route and you follow the hunting route over the scree slope in the east direction to the foothills of the low west face of Kosutna. Over the secured passage you ascend on the meadow Planina Kosutna that is located below the summit of Kosutna on the south slopes of Kosutna. Then you reach the summit over the grassy slopes between the dwarf pine.

In snowless season is the quickest that you descend by the sam route but better if you descend over the north slopes specially in Winter time when you will enjoy in beautiful skiing.


Essential Gear


Good hiking shoes, in Winter total equipment for tour skiing.
