Kranska Gora via Badencev Dom to Jasna Loop

on

What a great hike - short in terms of miles, but so much technical difficulty along the path that, mostly, followed the contours between Badencev Dom and Jasna Lake. Real testing the vertigo stuff.

The top of the chairlift at Badencev Dom
We took the chairlift up to Badencev Dom. It operates at weekends only this time of the year, so we got two one-way senior tickets €28.
Luckily the route was well signposted
From there it was a really challenging and exhilarating walk. Some pics below.

An old rickety signpost is better than none

The path mainly followed the contours, until it didn't

A gentian along the way

A picturesque route throughout

Ellie was so brave

And just kept going

We made it to the top then started heading down

Some lovely flowers along the way

Purple seemed to be the colour of the day

Then down to Jesna for lunch

Is this sort of shot getting boring?

I had an XXL burger which was so big I took half with me

Too good to waste

Ellie's chicken salad
We gave Gostelina Jasna where we ate - and our waiter, Damien - a 5* review. Then headed back to the apartment for a shower and rest before dinner.
