Description of the route: The second part of this beautiful albeit difficult ridge tour in the Krivánska Fatra Mts. is an all-day, long, and strenuous trip with great altitude difference. The ascents to the Snilovské sedlo saddle, to the Stoh Mt. and to the Veľký Rozsutec Mt. are especially difficult. Long descent is that from the Veľký Rozsutec to Zázrivá. 
The whole top part from the Snilovské sedlo saddle to the Malý Rozsutec Mt. boasts wonderful setting and far-reaching views including the deep Vrátna valley and many mountain ranges of the northern and central Slovakia.  The last section also offers the views of picturesque villages around Terchová and Zázrivá. Spring is to be found in the Medziholie and Medzirozsutce saddles. Orientation is easy if the weather is good. Otherwise the descent from the Veľký Rozsutec Mt. requires increased attention. The trip is recommended only if the weather is good.
