Slovenia: Hike & Fly to Dovška Baba, Afternoon on Prelaz Ljubelj

Dovška Baba is a peak in the Western Karawanks, and since I still haven't been there, today was the time to do that. It is a very known peak for ski touring, but today it was used for a hike & fly adventure. Nada was a photographer, while Rok and me made another tick to our new take off sites list.

Since that wasn't enough, Nada and me did a short afternoon hike to a pass prelaz Ljubelj.

A little blow from the East didn't bother him

 

My first attempt...
