Slovenia / Austria: Hike around Košuta

Two neighbouring alpine associations organised a hike around Košuta  and our work society ŠKD Indijanci decided to participate. Vlado, Saška, Nada and me were the participants of this 33 kilometres long hike with 2500 vertical meters.

For some, the hike was easy, for some not, overall, you have to be prepared for this adventure.

Weather was perfect for hiking, some clouds and a little wind

While I was waiting on the intersection I had time to take some pictures

Path on the scree - some didn't like that

Come on, hurry up guys
