About
The lodge operates as a mountain hut during hiking season with 20 beds across mixed dormitories and a small number of private rooms. The kitchen serves meals on request; bring a packed lunch for day trips or order ahead. No WiFi. The hut opens year-round but runs at reduced capacity and may require advance notice outside peak season (May to October). Toilets are basic and water comes from a reliable spring.
Contact the hut directly through the PZS directory or call ahead to confirm availability and book meals. July and August fill quickly; aim to reserve at least one week in advance during summer. Spring (April-May) and autumn (September-October) offer quieter conditions with good weather windows for longer walks. The hut is family-friendly and caters to local hunting groups, so booking is essential on weekends year-round.

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.
