Tour along the sightseeing ridge from Mt. Tolminski Kuk (2,085 m) to Mt. Vrh nad Škrbino (2,054 m)
This tour starts in the idyllic village of Tolminske Ravne, crosses the Kal (also Na Kalu) Mountain pasture, passes the stubby Mt. Tolminski Migovec and ascends to Mt. Tolminski Kuk. When you reach the top, you will notice a wonderful ridge to the west with a well-worn up-and-down trail. You can only avoid the ridge beneath Mt. Podrta gora. The ascent to this mountain is somewhat problematic for inexperienced mountaineers because it is routed along a very crumbly and rocky terrain. On the Škrbina notch, the trail descends a little down the northern side and embraces Mt. Vrh nad Škrbino. The beginning of the tour is easier because you can use iron clamps and the wire rope. On the top, you can enjoy in views from Lake Bohinj to the north all the way to the Adriatic Sea to the south.
From there, you only have to descend past the renowned Škrbinska plošča wall to the Razor Mountain pasture and further to Tolminske Ravne.
