About
The hut has 8 beds across simple dormitory spaces. The PZS-affiliated Mladinski odsek (youth section) of PD Jesenic manages it, so expect mountain hut standards: bring a sleeping bag, use shared washing facilities, and plan meals carefully. The hut operates year-round but is most active in winter and spring when climbers use it as a staging point. Summer sees lighter traffic. There is no staffed kitchen; you'll prepare your own food or arrange meals in advance through the managers.
Book by phone well ahead if you're planning a winter climb or a climbing party visit. July and August attract the most visitors. The hut is remote enough that casual walk-ups are rare—check current access conditions and contact details with PZS Jesenic before heading out, as winter access can be difficult.

Not walking in? These run in the same valley and are worth a day.
- Ljubljana: Savica Waterfall, Lake Bohinj and Lake Bled Tour 8 hours · from €80 · 4.9★ (1,417 reviews) The single best-reviewed way to see both lakes in a day, and the Savica stop is a real (if short and steep) 20-minute stair climb rather than a photo stop — capped at 8 people, so it books out.
- Ljubljana: Lake Bled and Bohinj Tour with Savica Waterfall 9.5 hours · from €94 · 4.8★ (1,014 reviews) Covers the same ground as the tour above on a bigger bus and a longer day, worth it mainly if the small-group version is sold out on your dates.
