The path we just came from is not karked, there is no trail and it involves scrambling while exposed to cliffs and in 3 parts it involves actual climbing. On the third spot you will need a rope for your safety, otherwise you are taking high risks of falling. Dont trust rocks, most of them are not stable, even the ones you are grabbing to hold while climbing

Kokerhane summit

From the pass dividing kokerhane and jezerca, there is no trail, but its quite walkable and not that far. It took us 25 minutes to reach the summit from the mountain pass!
