Paths and routes
Marked paths lead to the summit from the west and south.
The Špik has a striking, 900 meter high north face, which Angelo Dibona first tried in 1925, but had to cross in the middle of the wall. Mira-Marko Debelakova and S. Tomišek achieved the first ascent of the direct north face in 1926 ( V, A0 ).
