We are now looking southwards from the fields surrounding Malé Košecké Podhradie village. We can vaguely make out the ruins of Košeca castle on the mountaintop to the left. The peaked Vápeč (956 m) is seen in the background. In front of us there are a flock of sheep and a shepherd on the glaring sun. - Bibliography: Strážovské vrchy. - For information on Košeca, see:
