Geocache Description:


Dostop: S ceste Logatec–Žiri za Rovtami zavijete na levo proti vasici Ravne pri Žireh do domacije Pišljar (650 m). Od tam krenete cez polje do stare rapalske meje in tik pred brunarico na levo v gozd. Po približno stotih korakih krenete na desno (na drobnem drevesu sta vrezana pušcica in napis »miza«, potem okoli 300 korakov do novega razpotja, kjer sta na javorju spet pušcica in napis. Tu greste levo na gozdno pot oziroma vlako. Do kraške kotanje, v kateri je kamnita miza, je blizu. Plezanje nanjo pa utegne biti nevarno.


Kamnita naravna miza je skrita v gozdu malce iz vasi Ravne pri Žireh. Lubadar in žled sta Pišljarja prisilila, da je gozdno razdejanje na zbrazdanem in vegastem svetu okoli mize pospravil, tako da zdaj mizo hitro opazimo. Gre za pravo posebnost, ki jo je ustvarila narava. Ena sama prelestna natura, a za kamnito mizo v gozdu, do katere iz Raven ni vec kot dvajset minut krepcilne hoje, nekateri menijo, da je sveta. Kmetovalec Marjan Pišljar, ki ima v posesti to rec – Tomaževo mizo, ker se njim po domace rece pri Tomaževih - meni, da jo je ustvarila narava; zaradi njega pa so jo morda nekoc castili Kelti. O mizi ne pozna nobene zgodbe. Stoji sredi kraške udorne kotline in je že na prvi pogled videti kot brezcasno naravno cudo. S svojimi izrednimi dimenzijami cloveka (pre)hitro napelje do domišlije. Dolga je šest, široka štiri, v povprecju pa debela en meter. Po Pišljarjevem izracunu tehta okoli 30 ton. Položena je na poldrugi meter visok in ravno toliko širok skalni cok. Ta skalni izrastek je najvišji del grebena, ki se v smeri vzhod–zahod grbi skozi kotanjo. Greben je delo erozij in topljenja kamnin. Kmalu opazimo, da je na njem še nekaj nizkih cokov, cez katere so naložene in vsevprek poveznjene še druge skalne mize. Tu gre za dve plasti enakega kremenca, pri cemer je verjetno gornja plast bila manj topna kot spodnja, zato je nekako izvisela in se razdelila na plošce. Ena od teh plošc, Tomaževa miza, je obticala na nekoliko višjem skalnem coku. Oboje je zdaj – in dolga tisocletja prej – videti kot velikanska kamnita goba. Gre za izredno naravno znamenitost, ki bi jo bilo treba kot takšno znanstveno razložiti in zašcititi. Ko splezamo na mizo, se pa vendarle dogodi nekaj cudi. S stopicanjem po mizi se gmota pod nogami zacne zibati, najprej komaj opazno, kakor pri rahlem potresu. Tridesettonska miza stoji namrec v kocljivem ravnovesju s podložkom. Med njima so luknje. Teža mize je obcutljiva kakor jezicek na tehtnici. Vaša teža ji premoti ravnotežje. Zanimivo je še to, da jo lahko premikamo z "golimi rokami". Torej, ce ste dovolj mocni in se dovolj mocno oprete na ogromno kamnito plošco, lahko opazite, kako se zgornji del rahlo premika. Bolje pa je, da to kamnito gmoto obcudujemo, in ne plezamo gor, še posebno moramo paziti na otroke, ce so z nami. Previdnost je zmeraj priporocljiva. Obiskovalci, ki jih lastnik ne pozna, so do mize oznacili pot, ob njej pa na posrecen nacin montirali omarico z vpisno knjigo. Mizo si ogleda veliko ljudi, tako nakljucni sprehajalci kot tisti, ki pridejo prav zato, da videli to posebnost. V knjigi obiskovalcev je mogoce opaziti, da ljudje prihajajo iz vse Slovenije, pa tudi obiskovalci iz Avstralije in ZDA so si že ogledali mizo. Ta miza je res cudo narave. Žal pa nihce od vašcanov lepega zaselka Ravne ne zna izkoristiti, da bi to naravno danost ponudil turistom. Nad mizo, na Kovku je tudi izredno dobro ohranjen bunker iz italijanskega obrambnega sistema Alpski zid. V dolini Crne pa lep slap Bezjak. Vse to lahko obhodite v dobri uri. Zanimivo pa je tudi v tej okolici raste iglasto drevo tisa. Ce se boste torej potikali v bližini Žirov, si le vzemite cas in se sprehodite po prijetni gozdni poti, kjer vas poleg mize cakajo še številne druge zanimive kamnite skulpture.

 

 

Access: By road Logatec-Žiri turn left towards to the village Ravne (1,5 km) to  the home Pišljar (650 m altitude). From there we go across the field to the old Rapallo border and just before the log cabin in the woods on the left. After about a hundred steps we turn to the right (the small tree with the arrow on and the words engraved "table", then around 300 steps to a new crossroads, where is on the small maple tree is another arrow and a caption. Here you go left onto a forest trail (vlaka). The karst basins, in which the stone table is near. Climbing on it may be dangerous.


Natural stone table is a bit hidden in the woods from the village level in Žiri. Bark beetle and ice forced the Pišljarja that forest destruction on the grooved and uneven world around tables put away, so now we see a table quickly. It is a real specialty, created by nature. A single magnificent nature, but the stone table in the woods, to which the level of not more than twenty minutes walk restorative, some believe that the world. Marjan Pišljar farmer who is in possession of the thing - Thomas table, because he says it on the home of Thomas - believes that it is the way nature intended, because it may have once worshiped by the Celts. The table does not know any stories. Standing in the middle basin, karst collapse, and at first glance looks like a timeless natural wonder. With its extraordinary dimensions of human being (too) quickly conveyed to the imagination. Six long, four wide, on average, one meter thick. After calculating it weighs around 30 tons. Placed at a half meter tall and just as wide rock choke. This rock is the highest projection of the ridge, which is in the East-West arms through the basin. The ridge is the work of erosion and melting of rocks. Soon we see that there is some low »cok«, over which are imposed across the board and pulled yet another rock tables. There are two layers of the same silica, and is probably the upper layer was less soluble than the bottom, so it kinda is suspended and divided into panels. One of these plates, »Thomas table« is stuck at a slightly higher rock. Both are now - and thousands of years earlier - it looks like a giant stone mushroom. This is a very natural phenomenon, which could be explained scientifically as such and protected. When you climb on the table, but still something surprising happens. The stopicanjem the table is a mass of rock beneath your feet begins, first subtle, as when a slight earthquake. Thirty tons table is located in a delicate balance. Among them are the holes. Weight-sensitive tables as the scales. Your weight premoti her balance. It is interesting in that it can move with "bare hands". So if you are strong enough and strong enough to rely on a huge slab, you see how the upper part moves slightly. Better is that this stone pile admire, and not climbing up, we especially pay attention to the children if they are with us. Caution is always recommended. Visitors who are not aware of the owner are marked path to the table next to it is a benign way to mount the box with the inscription book. Table are viewed by many people as random walkers than those who come specifically to see this feature. In the book, visitors can observe that people come from all overSlovenia, as well as visitors fromAustralia and theU.S. have already accessed the table. This table is a true marvel of nature. Unfortunately, none of the villagers beautiful village level are not able to take advantage of the natural givenness would offer tourists. Above the table on Kovk is also extremely well preserved bunker defense system in the Italian Alpine wall. In the valley Crna is a beautiful waterfall Bezjak. All this you can walk in one hour. It is interesting also in this area is growing yew tree. So if you wander near Žiri, you just take your time and take a walk through pleasant forest path, where you view tables in addition to many other interesting stone sculptures.
