What kind of mountain is it?
Skradski vrh is an isolated, forested and very steep hill. It stands out from its surroundings with a compact, abrupt outline, and the top holds a surprise: a meadow plateau. This makes the summit a comfortable place to rest, with wide views over the surrounding forests of Gorski Kotar.

Depending on your pace, the hike takes half a day to a full day; the loop from Skrad alone is about 9 km on foot. Choose a day with good visibility, when the panorama from the top is at its fullest.
