From here we continue over the Vidakov Kuk in a left lap back into the gorge. I can only say the path is still quite nice, especially since the path is very stony and craggy. If you have doubts about your fitness and surefootedness, you should turn around and cross the cave back into the gorge, this is definitely the faster and easier way. It's definitely not half-time here, as we had originally assumed.

Hiking

Trail is quite dangerous. I think from the eastern side it's more difficult. No climbing gear required, but it's very technical and a mistake can easily lead to injury or even death. I was too scared for my life to appreciate the view from the peak.

Magnificent summit, superb loop too, reserved for experienced hikers. Go counterclockwise for the views (but be careful, the very technical part to reach the gorge at the end of the trail). For a taste of the loop, the video (subtitled in 7 languages) is here:
