The ridge of the Brezniške peči is the westernmost beginning of the
Kamnik - Savinja Alps, and in its highest part it barely exceeds a thousand meters above sea level. Usually we always see it while driving on the motorway towards Jesenice, but today, it was time to see it from close. We started the hike from
Žirovnica and immediately we ascended to the ridge. The path follows the ridge almost all the time, crossing the less known peaks Brinjev vrh, 715 m,
Mali vrh, 861 m, Peči, 855 m, Reber, 883 m, Gosjak, 888 m, Golovec 953 m, Jecola 1080 m and
Smokuški vrh, 1122 m. At Smokuški vrh, the ridge ends and we followed the trail to the north, to a mountain pasture
Poljška planina, 1180 m. Our first stop was on
Planina Planinca, 1136 m and the last one on
Koča na Prevalu mountain hut, 1311 m. From there, we just descended to our home -
Garmin Connect.
We started the hike in front of Čop’s Birth House in Žirovnica, following the trail past water station, built in 1914. Through the tunnel to the ridge.

From time to time, we really had a magnificent view to the surroundings.
On the way, we had some quick breaks.
Towards Reber, 883 m.
Near Golovec, 953 m, the view opened again.
Finally over 1000 m above sea level.
Towards Tomčeva koča na Poljški planini, 1180 m.
