Planinski Lodge pri Krnskih Jezerih
3.6Planinski Dom pri Krnskih Jezerih
About
The lodge holds 146 beds across shared rooms. PZS and the Nova Gorica climbing club manage it. Hot meals are served daily; bring sleeping sheets or pay the rental fee. The hut has no WiFi—expect no phone signal either. Running water and toilets are available; showers cost extra. The season runs year-round, though winter staffing is limited. Book directly by phone to confirm availability and winter opening dates before traveling. Phone ahead also to check water access and heating during shoulder seasons.
This is serious mountain accommodation, not a hotel. The Krn Lakes draw mountaineers and hikers aiming for the surrounding peaks: Krn, Bogatin, and Škrlatica are all within reach. The hut fills quickly during summer weekends and school holidays. Book 2–3 months ahead for July and August weekends.

Guided trips nearby
Not walking in? These run in the same valley and are worth a day.
- Bovec: Canyon Učja — The biggest zipline park in Europe 3 hours · from €80 · 4.9★ (794 reviews) Ten ziplines across a side canyon with big Soča valley views; pure adrenaline rather than hiking, and not for anyone uneasy about heights or harnesses.
- From Bovec: Premium Rafting on Soča River with Photo Service 3 hours · from €57 · 4.9★ (588 reviews) The most-reviewed rafting run on the Soča and beginner-friendly, but the water is snowmelt-cold well into summer and the "premium" tag mostly means better base facilities and photos.
- From Ljubljana: Guided Day Tour to Soča and Kranjska Gora 10.5 hours · from €114 · 4.9★ (874 reviews) The best-reviewed way to reach Kobarid and the WWI front from the capital without a car, with a short walk to Kozjak waterfall — but it is a ten-hour day in a vehicle for a few short stops.
- From Bovec: Sušec Stream Canyoning in the Soča Valley 3.5 hours · from €62 · 4.9★ (236 reviews) The gentlest of the Bovec canyoning options and fine for confident first-timers, though you will be jumping into cold pools and abseiling, so it is not a gorge walk.
