About
Pastirska Koča na Planini Korošica sits at 1554m on the Korošica upland in the Kamnik-Savinja Alps. Reach it from the village of Črnivec (near Mozirje) by hiking 2–2.5 hours through mixed forest and pasture. The trail is well-marked and moderately steep in places. Summer access is straightforward; winter routes depend on snow cover. The hut also connects to longer traverses linking the Kamnik-Savinja region—useful if you're stringing together multi-day walks across the range.
The hut is a traditional shepherd's hut offering simple accommodation and meals. It sleeps around 20 people in basic dormitory spaces. The kitchen provides hearty Slovenian fare; book meals ahead when you reserve. Water comes from a spring nearby. The hut operates year-round but staffing and food availability are best mid-June through September. Outside this window, contact ahead to confirm service. Facilities are minimal—expect cold-water washing and pit toilets—but the isolation and pasture views make it worth the trade-offs.
Book directly with the hut operator or through the PZS (Planinska zveza Slovenije). For July and August weekends, reserve at least 2 weeks ahead. Shoulder seasons (June, September) are less crowded. The hut is popular with Slovenian hikers; weekday visits outside summer are quieter. Phone or email to confirm current opening dates and catering before heading up.
