A good place to take a short break and refill your bottles before the climb to Ivanšćica.

Quiet and shaded forest spot on Ivanšćica. The name “Črne mlake” roughly means “black ponds”, which gives the place a slightly mysterious feel. According to local legend, witches used to gather here.

The path up and down was very, very steep, and on the way down, there were some slippery slopes. The hut at the top is only open on weekends and public holidays (and probably also on the day before a holiday). Good fitness is required.
