Notes from the trip:

It was the official trip of PD-a Runolist khiking club guided by Krešo (big thanks to him). The guest at this trip havr come from HPU Alfa & Omega, PD Bundek and HPD Zrin hiking clubs.

The start was planned from the monument at the beginning of the Majstorska Cesta due to expected snow on the road. In the motel Sveti Rok we have got the information that road is passable and the plan is changed to go by car as much as possible.

At Sveto Brdu, we were enjoying stunning view and we have found the broken cross built by German Army pioneers in 1996. It could not resist to torture of snow, winds, ice and thunders. We are looking forward for the reconstruction of this symbol of Sveto Brdo.

After returning to the shelter, we went to get water to 10 min of walking far natural spring. It was followed by dinner and socializing evening.
