About
Tončkov Dom sits at 927m on Lisca in the Kamnik-Savinja Alps, above the Solčava Valley. The hut is reachable from the village of Solčava in 2–2.5 hours on a marked trail that climbs steadily through beech and spruce forest. This is a moderate walk with 550m elevation gain—ideal for acclimatization or a family day trip that doubles as overnight accommodation. The location offers views across the Solčava Valley toward Matkov Kot and works as a base for exploring the surrounding ridges and peaks of the eastern Kamnik-Savinja Alps.
The hut is a simple mountain shelter with room for around 20 guests. It has a small common room with a wood stove and basic dormitory sleeping. The kitchen provides hot meals at dinner and breakfast; book your meals when reserving. Water comes from a spring. The hut is staffed seasonally—typically weekends and public holidays in May, June, September and October, with fuller hours July through August. Outside these periods, the hut may be open to those with keys held by the Slovenian Alpine Association (PZS).
Contact the hut directly to confirm opening dates and make reservations for meals and overnight stays. July and August fill on weekends; book at least 1–2 weeks ahead. Outside peak season, phone ahead before arriving. Families and groups planning a multi-day trip in the Solčava area should treat this hut as a useful acclimatization stop rather than a destination with extensive facilities.
