Description
We hit the mountain on the north-west part through a dense forest full of high beech trees which offers you a good hiking condition covering the trail with huge shadows which makes it even easier to hike in the mid summer high temperatures. After the forest finishes we hike on the same direction where we get on the same ridge with a total beautiful 360 degree view.
Our destination was the peak of Kuc Baba located on 2500m altitude where we stopped on a good spot for the perfect lunch we carried from the village.
Next stop was village of Vica where we started the descent heading through a dense forest on spring time from which i still remember those early spring beautiful trees covered with flowers.
