High in the mountains, by the emerald lake

Yesterday on the Saturday morning, we had the idea of ​​going to the highlands. It has already become hot enough that the snow in the mountains has almost melted. That's why we decided to use the Saturday day in the mountains; they are called Kriški podi.

The path is extremely beautiful, not too steep. We started the hike at 4:30 in the morning from the Trenta Valley parking lot.We had to stop halfway and eat a sandwich; we were not yet hungry at home.

After more than 4 hours, we arrived at the mountain lodge called Pogačnikov dom. The cottage is located between the lower and upper lake. We visited the lower lake, which is 120 m long, 90 m wide and 9.5 m deep. It is the warmest of the lakes in Kriški podi. In winter, the lake is deep under snow due to avalanches.

Looking at all these mountains that surrounded us, I felt small, fragile, but at the same time wonderful that I could experience all these wonders of nature. Grey-white rocks, green plains of grass and mountain flowers, birds hovering overhead and, of course, an emerald green lake resting peacefully in the arms of the mountains.

We took off our hiking shoes and dipped our feet in the cold lake. This is really good after a long hike. Your feet really relax in the cold water. I'm glad we decided to go on this hike. I have another memory that I will remember with great pleasure.

What a great post, perfectly suited to my weekend experiences community, but also to my other one, the outdoors and more community.

Thank you! ❤️

Awesome. Do you ever make movies from your hikes ? On YouTube, Instagram, Twitter, etc ? You should try out the 3Speak app for iPhone. You will earn way more crypto. I’m making a small fortune. $50,000 last year … I was able to retire and go hiking, camping, kayaking, off the grid thanks to Hive, YouTube, Dtube, 3Speak, etc.

what beautiful photos, I love landscapes like that, for I know it was a walk to remember

Hello Sofia😊
First of all thank you for such a nice comment, and yes i must say whenever i go to the mountains is a walk to remember⛰️

Hey there Maja, we never got a self introduction post from you and how you found out about Hive. For a newbie, you know your way around Hive very well, so it would be great to share your experience. Although a self introduction post is not mandatory, it certainly helps to let the community know a bit about yourself.

Hopefully you will consider that.

Hey @livinguktaiwan, thank you stopping by. Thank you for your suggestion, however I was thinking people will get to know me the best through my post and blogs I will share on my profile 😊 My friends introduced me to the platform and showed me around the platform, communities, etc. So yes, from that point of you, I might be doing quite well 🙃
Have a nice day!

That's very secretive of you and an approach that doesn't go down well with some in the community. People only do that when they have something to hide and don't want others to know who their 'friends' are that introduced them to Hive.

We have seen many go down this route and turn out to be fake profiles

Look, i don't have nothing to hide here. But since I'm seeing that I will be carefully watched till I give you all the answers. My dear friends @thefootprint introduced me around and the platform. However, they presented the platform very free spirited with nice and friendly people, and not so controlling.
Hope I answered on all your concerns. Once again, have a nice day! And not all poeple who don't specify who they are, from where they are .. are having bad intentions. Maybe some just want to keep some privacy.
