About

Planinski Dom Šentjungert sits at 565m in the Kamnik-Savinja Alps near the village of Šentjungert. The hut lies on hiking routes between Kamnik and the higher peaks of the range. You can reach it on foot from Kamnik in 2.5 to 3 hours, following marked trails through forested valleys. The location works as a base for day walks across the lower Alps or as a rest point on longer traverses.

The lodge is a simple mountain hut run by the local PZS section. It offers basic accommodation in shared rooms and serves meals to hikers. The hut operates year-round but is busier during summer months and on weekends. Facilities are minimal—expect basic dormitory sleeping, a dining room, and toilets. Bring your own bedding or rent sheets. Hot meals and drinks are available when the hut is staffed.

Contact the hut directly before visiting to confirm opening hours and staff availability. Phone ahead if you need accommodation, especially on weekends from June to September. Groups should book several weeks in advance. The hut accepts cash payments only—no card facilities. Arrive early in the day to secure a bed during peak season.
