Description

Zlatar mountain lies between rivers Lim, Uvac, Mileševka, and Bistrica. Its highest peak is Velika Krševa ('Big Karst', 1627 meters) with Spruce forest on the northern and scrubby and rocky meadows on the southern slopes. Beneath the Velika Krševa peak is the Vodena Poljana ('Water Meadow') in which there is a fountain spring with drinking water. South of Vodena Poljana is the Special Nature Reserve Ivlje forest, which has a unique mixed forest of Spruce and European red pine.

Many dirt roads and paths depart from Vodena Poljana, some of them are marked on the map below. The dirt road to the east winds shortly through the forest to reach steep and occasionally rocky meadows below the Zlatar peaks. Here you can find Bouvreuil pivoine, Mésange noire, Mésange huppée, Mésange boréale, Roitelet triple-bandeau, Roitelet huppé, and Accenteur mouchet. Darker and colder northern Zlatar slopes can be explored by choosing the dirt road to the north where you need some luck to find Pic tridactyle, Chevêchette d'Europe, or Chouette de Tengmalm. Finally, if you do not mind going down by foot, the path to the south passes through the Ivlje forest, where you may encounter Bec-croisé des sapins.
