6. Jezerski Stog
Jezerski Stog is a 2,040 m high mountain in the eastern part of the Julian Alps. It is located within the Triglav National Park. The bushy peak, together with the ridge that begins on the Krstenica Mountain, with which it is connected via the still forested 1,879 m high Krstenica Stog, and continues across the Jezersko Pass to Prevalski Stog and Škednjovec, represents a natural border that separates the southern-lying Fužine Mountains from the central Triglav Mountains.
7. Vrh Hribaric
The top of Hribaric is a 2388 m high mountain in the central Julian Alps. It is located within the Triglav National Park in the middle of a distinctly karst world. Its northern walling, together with the walling of the Mišelj end, is surrounded by the Mišelj Valley. To the west, the ridge slopes towards the plateau of Hribarica, from where the easiest access to the very top is via an unmarked path. The southern and eastern slopes descend into the Valley behind Debeli vrh.
8. Šmarjetna glava
Šmarjetna glava is a 2,358-meter-high mountain in the Julian Alps. It is located in the immediate vicinity of Triglav, within the Triglav National Park. Several important mountain trails run around its foot: from Velo polje to Dolič, from Dolić to Planika and from Dolić to Triglav.
