Leave the car immediately when turning from the main road towards Vršič, next to the Pišnica river, because the road to the Koča v Krnici hut is impassable in many places!
Path description:
From the Koča v Krnici hut the previous path is destroyed due to rockfalls so you have to repeatedly climb over the rocks and persistently look for blazes! The path is very panoramic and very beautiful! Only the last hour becomes more demanding! Before the actual ascent on Špik of course you have to deal with the ridge, which is of course precipitous and crumbly therefore caution is not superfluous! Also at the last climb to the summit you have to be careful, because the stones are quite crumbly! Descent through Kačji graben and the scree before that are a separate chapter! Caution is needed at every step - scree is under a great slope, later the stones are slippery to the end! Most beautiful just before the end are small stream and later river Pišnica with very refreshing and clear water!
