Slovenia: Hiking in TNP in Triglav Lakes Valley, Day 2

A two day trip in the mountains with Nada continued. Our planned route changed a little, so we started with our hike from Zasavska koča na Prehodavcih mountain hut, 2071 m, straight to Kanjavec, 2569 m, which was also the highest peak of our trip, and one of the highest ones in Slovenia. You can access the list of the highest Slovenian mountains here.
