Banovina, Kordun and Pokuplje

This is the highest point of the 500 m long reef with two smaller summits above 400 m. In the older maps the summit of The Hrastovica Hill is named "Cepeliš" after the village on its foot, but local people call it "Piramida" (The Pyramid). There is a geodetic pyramid about 14 m tall. Just a few tens meters from the top there is new mountain lodge Matija Filjak.

  • Location: 45° 23,7632' N, 16° 16,5502 E

The summit is surrounded by young chestnuts forest that closes nice views and because of this, it is built a belvedere around geodetic pyramid. Another near nice view (to south) is from the belvedere at the Chestnuts trail, 10 min of walking from the lodge.
