About

Koča na Kriški Gori sits at 1,471m in the Kamnik-Savinja Alps. The hut is a base for ridge walking and day hikes across this central range. Most hikers approach from the Braslovče valley to the south—the walk takes roughly 3 hours. You can also climb from Lukovica in the north, a steeper 2.5-hour route. Both paths are marked and well-trodden.
The hut is run by PZS (Planinska zveza Slovenije) and sleeps around 30 people in mixed dormitory rooms. The kitchen serves hot meals on weekends and during the summer season. There's no electricity or running water—it's basic mountain hut accommodation. The building opens year-round but staffing is reliable only from May through October. Winter visits require advance arrangement.
Book by phone contact with the hut directly. July and August demand reservations 4–6 weeks ahead. May, June, September, and early October fill quickly on weekends. Outside summer months, groups should call ahead to confirm someone will be present. This is working hut infrastructure, not a resort.
