Route: Oltari (950 m) - Mt. Lodge Zavižan (1594 m)  - Oltari

Atitude difference: ~650 m (altitude profile is here)

Starting and Ending point: Oltari (950 m) - (the village on the road Otočac - Švica - Krasno - Sv. Juraj)

Acent time: 6 h (Descent time 4,5 h)

Difficulties : very difficult because of winter conditions (138 cm of snow, officially)

Oneliner:  Real winter ascent to Zavižan - there was about one meter of snow along the whole trail. We fulfilled the promise given to ourselves at the previous ascent to Zavižan (Winter Ascent to Zavižan in December 13-14, 2014) - "We shall return - in winter conditions".

 Notes:

  •  It was beautiful to walk on one meter of virgin snow and enjoying silence of the Mt Velebit. The good atmosphere is boosted by pleasant housekeeper Ante and the absence of the crowd (what is impossible during weekends, even in winter period).

  • There was 138 cm of snow, officially and about one meter in the forest. Under these conditions, the trail is non-passable without snow-shoes or back-country skies.

  • The road was by chance clean more then half way but it could stay for very short time due to bora, and fresh snow.
