Jesenice

This weekend we went hiking in Jesenice - Hruški vrh 1 776m and Dovška Baba 1 891m. Our crew was Finno-Ugric: Balázs and Judit from Hungary and me as a Finn.

On the morning we arrived to the train station of Jesenice, bought some food from the market and continued the way to the start of a walking path called Stara Rudna pot. On this summer my Hungarian friends participated in a working camp there, cleaning the path and streams, digging ways for water to flow down.
On Jesenice train station we also saw an old steam train - wow! 
 
Jesenice is located on the border of Austria and Slovenia, so a part of the way we were walking in Austria's side. So, hehe, now I can say that I've been in Austria. Or even better, hiking in Austria ;-)

This is Austriaaaaa!
 
On this hike we reached two peaks - Hruški vrh 1 776m and Dovška Baba 1 891m on the Karawanken Alps.


On the border there is just a small, broken fence... And a great view!

On the way down we stopped by a hut (unfortunately it wasn't open) for a lunch which we had with us
On the way down it was already getting quite late, so we missed the last bus to Ljubljana. But no worries - hitchhiking was successful and we got to a train station of Lesce-Bled and caught the last train.
