Beautiful peak in Karavanke range.
Starting from Ljubej we passed the Zelenica hut on a way and ascended the peak in cloud. On a way down it cleared out and we had a great vies on green valleys in Austria and Bled lake in Slovenia.

Via Osrednja grapa ravine
Winter ascent from Zelenica via Osrednja grapa ravine on northern side of the mountain. Down by south ravine back to Zelenica.
It was january 2005, I think, we climbed Vrtaca by Y-shaped gully, rather steep, very good snow conditions, we met some skiers, it did not seem to me like a place to ski.Came down on the other side, much softer snow, sticking to crampons.Very proud
