About

Brunarica Osolnik sits at 753m in the Kamnik-Savinja Alps, above the village of Osolnik near Kamnik. The hut lies on the main route toward Ojstrica and serves as a base for day hikes across the northern limestone plateaus. From Kamnik town center, allow 1.5 hours to reach the hut on marked trails through mixed forest. The approach gains roughly 300m elevation and stays moderate throughout.

This is a small mountain hut run by PZS, with capacity for around 30 guests. It serves hot meals and drinks; book ahead if you want dinner or breakfast. The hut operates year-round, though staffing is less reliable in winter months. Facilities are basic but clean—expect dormitory-style sleeping and shared bathrooms. The hut works best as an overnight stop or day-hike hub rather than a destination in itself. From here, you can reach Ojstrica (1,477m) in 90 minutes or walk across the plateau toward Krvavec.

Contact the hut directly before visiting, especially for winter stays or large groups. Book meals the evening before or as soon as you arrive. May through September are busy periods; book accommodation a week ahead during these months. Outside peak season, phone ahead the day before to confirm someone is present.
