This is what autumn looks like on the Velebit mountain | Solo hiking

#croatia #hiking #solohiking #velebit #planinarenje
Mid November 2022. I set off for the mountain without any specific goals that I wanted to achieve. I did not plan to climb any peak. I just wanted to walk and enjoy autumn in the mountain. I only had a tentative route. First day I had only two hours of daylight available. Arriving at the camping spot, a gale force Bura wind began to blow. Setting up the tent became a real challenge. However, I managed to set up a tent in a slightly less wind-exposed part of the valley.
In the morning, the wind continued to blow, and I continued with the further ascent in the mountain. At about 1200 m above sea level, I took a short rest in the first shelter and decided to continue towards the second one along the ridge of the mountain.
Near the second shelter, it started to rain. Rain in combination with wind and slippery rocks made descending from the mountain more challenging than usual. Luckily, I managed to get down the mountain just after sunset.
Statistics: 25 km / 26 hours / 1600 m vertical gain.
