Trip to Razor always offers a variety of choices of getting up to it or descend from. This time we took advantage of a beautiful afternoon sun and made the crossing from Stador to Kal pasture and from there by some short cuts single tracks all the way down to the valley to get out the Tolminka gorge at the very end of our trip. As always Razor is an excellent choice.
1300m of altitude difference, 10km of ascent, 13% of average slope, with 20% steepness on the very beginning of ascent just outside Zatolmin - these are some facts that make this way up to Sleme not very popular among mountain bike riders to say the least. But there are some who like it just for these facts. The way up takes some effort but when you get to the top where the highest mountain pasture of Tolmins region lies the view opens to the Julian alps on the East and West side. From here many possibilities for descent are available. The most popular is to go down to Mederje and via Pretovč straight down to Zatolmin. The single track is always empty and it allows a very high speed descent with some rocky sections just to keep the thing interesting.
