Javorova kosa is a beautiful and easily accessible peak above Ravna Gora. There is a wonderful meadow near the peak, but it does not offer views of the surroundings. Approximately 200 meters east of the peak, there is the mountain hut Javorova kosa. This simple wooden house with steep roof and 14 beds also has an adjacent shelter with room for overnight stay for six more persons. The facility was built by members of the mountaineering society PD Višnjevica, and the key can be borrowed in the Ravna Gora Tourist Board. The shelter has no electricity, and water can be obtained from the spring Božji studenac, 6 minutes of descent away. Since the construction of the Zagreb – Rijeka Motorway tunnel below Javorova kosa, the spring of Božji studenac sometimes runs dry during summer.

View: Absence of view is compensated by an iron observation pyramid 13 meters high serving as viewpoint and capable of receiving three persons. Members of PD Višnjevica built the pyramid on the peak. The pyramid offers a wide view of the entire region of Gorski kotar and Slovenia, all the way to the Alps.

Seal: Metal seal is on the peak, next to the pyramid.

Directions

Approaches:
  • Ravna Gora – Javorova kosa 1 h
  • Ravna Gora – Ponor pod Kosicom – Kicljeve jame – Javorova kosa 4.30 h
  • Skrad – Kicljeve jame – Javorova kosa 4 h
  • Javorova kosa – Ledena jama – Moravice 3.30 h

The shortest and the easiest access is from Ravna Gora. Starting from the center, we first take I. G. Kovačića Street towards the east to the church of St. Theresa. 100 meters after the church, we continue to the left and uphill along the street called Vrh. After 15 minutes of climbing, we then turn left from this street to a dirt road. After 15 minutes of hiking along this road, we turn left, with 8 more minutes of uphill hiking across a meadow remaining to the mountain hut.
