Grmovškov Dom below Velika Kopa (1377 m)

Highlight • Mountain Hut

The Grmovšek Hut (Slovene: Grmovškov dom pod Veliko Kopo) is a mountain hut below the Veliko Kopa at an altitude of 1,377 metres. The hut was built in 1937 and quickly became a popular stop for outdoor sports enthusiasts. In 1942 it burned down, in 1947 it was rebuilt – and unfortunately burned down again in the same year. The third hut was inaugurated in 1954 and named after Miloš Grmovšek, the then president of the Slovenj Gradec Hiking Association (PD Slovenj Gradec).

The hut is a great stop on your hike with everything you need after a long day of hiking.

Črni Vrh (1,543 m)

Highlight (Segment) • Summit

Črni vrh is the highest peak of Pohorje. Grass grows on the dominant top, and on the east and north sides it is overgrown with low spruces. At the top is a sign consisting of three high, at the top connected metal crosses, and at the base are three wedges. Next to it is a box with a registration book and a stamp. The sign says that it stands on the highest peak of Pohorje and that it was erected on the initiative of the Mislinja PD and the Šentilj pod Turjakom Parish Office. From the top we can see Velika Kopa. On the south side lies the Mislinjska valley, while Paški Kozjak and Graška gora rise. On the southern slopes of Pohorje, farms are scattered, which provided shelter and food to partisan units during the National Liberation War. In the west rise Uršlja gora, Peca, Olševa and Kamnik-Savinja Alps, and in the north Košenjak, Gólica and Kozjak. With good visibility, we can also see the Julian Alps and the High and Low Tours far on the horizon.

Jezerski Vrh Memorial to Fallen Mountaineers

Highlight • Monument

Jezerski vrh or Ribniški vrh is one of the highest peaks in Pohorje. As it is not overgrown, it has a beautiful view of the Pohorje, south of Mislinjska graben, Paška Kozjak, Graška gora and further towards Posavski hribovje, and north of the part of the Drava valley with Radlje ob Dravi and the Kozjak mountain range north of the valley. On the eastern side of the peak is nearby Ribniško Lake, overgrown with dwarf pine. The story goes that the flood man Jezernik also lives in this lake, who is said to have moved the lake there from Uršlja gora because a church was built on it and the ringing of bells disturbed his peace. On the west side we can see Ribniška koča hut nearby.

On Jezerski vrh, PD Maribor-Matica erected a mighty monument to fallen mountaineering fighters; it was discovered on September 10, 1961. The monument from the Pohorje tonalite is built in the shape of a square obelisk and is 12 m high. On its left side there is a large tonalite vase, and on the right a tonalite plate with a dedication written by the poet Branko Rudolf:

“Who is to destroy the courage of all hearts,
for the freedom of the burning?
The torch was darkened by the night,
a spark ignited a fire,
your spirit has remained in men,
wakes up again in strong hearts
in the rhythm of spindles and hammers,
in the loud noise of the forests. "

Črni vrh

Highlight • Summit

Črni vrh is the highest mountain in the Pohorje Mountains in Slovenia. On the 1,543 meter high summit you will find a rest stop with a shelter. Since the summit is not covered in forests, you have a beautiful view of the surrounding nature. A beautiful place for a break with a great view.

August 30, 2022,Ribnica na Pohorju/Slowenien: Von der Hütte Ribniška koča auf den Črni vrh und zur Hütte Grmovškov dom und zurück

Since I have 12 weeks vacation this year, after the tour of the Czech Republic there is a second, longer tour - to Slovenia. I am currently in the Maribor area, where today I went on a hike to the highest peak of Pohorje.

August 16, 2021,Zum Ribniško jezero

Today in Slovenia we went from the ski lifts near Kope to Ribniško Jezero, a moor lake at 1490m. There were 2 peaks on the way, the Črni vrh and the Ribniški vrh, each with great views of the Pohorje mountains. You can fortify yourself just before the Ribniški vrh in the Ribniška koča. A very rewarding and not very …
