Itinerary description
An easy level walk along a road to the South end of the valley, followed by a steepish hike through a forest, then a scramble up a boulder strewn steep gulley which includes some sections with cables and ropes. Once out of the forest, at the bottom of the gulley, you’ll see a prominent pointy peak aptly called Koplje (spear). You’ll need your hands & feet to make it up the steep gulley to the small cirque/ amphitheater at the top. The surrounding rock faces are imposing and prevent any further elevation gain.
