About
Planinski Dom I. Štajerskega Bataljona sits at 875m on Čreta in the Kamnik-Savinja Alps. The hut lies on the main ridge walk between Črnivec and Ojstrica, making it a natural stop for multi-day traverses in this range. You can reach it from Črnivec in 1.5 hours or from Škalce in the valley below in 2–2.5 hours. The approach is steady ridge walking with good trail markers.
The lodge is a working hut run by PZS, offering 50 beds across several rooms. Meals are available on weekends and holidays year-round; call ahead if visiting mid-week to confirm. The hut has a kitchen, basic washrooms, and a common room. Winter access depends on snow conditions; contact the hut directly before planning a winter visit.
Book directly with the hut for July and August, especially for weekends. Outside peak season, same-day arrival usually works. The hut sits on a heavily-used ridge, so Friday–Sunday in summer fill quickly. Phone ahead to confirm meal availability if you're not arriving at a standard mealtime. Access to hot food and shelter makes this hut popular with ridge walkers doing the Črnivec–Ojstrica traverse.
