Kredarica is also the highest meteorological station in Slovenia and 2 meteorologists are there at all times, even during the winter. The lodge is officially closed in the wintertime, but even then the weathermen will welcome you with open arms and offer you something to eat. In the winter, Kredarica is a popular destination for tour skiing, while a winter ascent of Triglav summit is only reserved for the most experienced mountaineers and can only be done in the right conditions. The lodge can accommodate almost 350 people and has 300 seats in its dining rooms and in front of the lodge.

Planika has the advantage of offering two possible routes for the final push to Triglav’s peak, which can be very convenient if you wish to pick a path that is less crowded with hikers – Triglav is a very popular mountain after all. Apart from good food, you can also find comfortable rooms at the Planika, you just have to reserve them early enough. The hut is situated on Triglav’s south face and you can easily reach Kredarica or Dolič from here. The lodge can accommodate around 120 people and has 80 seats in its dining rooms and in front of the lodge.

In the winter of 2009, this lodge was severely damaged by an avalanche, but the members of the local mountain society had restored it shortly thereafter. The lodge can accommodate 70 people and has 80 seats in its dining rooms and in front of the lodge.

The lodge has its own drinking water source and is a great Alpine post where you can rest and get something to eat when hiking to or from cabins that lie higher up in the mountains. It’s also a good stopping point to spend the night on hut to hut tours. The lodge can accommodate 70 people and has 50 seats in its dining rooms and in front of the lodge.

Due to the beauty of the natural surroundings, the lodge is a very popular destination in its own right, especially for families, but it also serves as a good starting point for ascends on higher peaks. The lodge can accommodate 200 people and has 150 seats in its dining rooms and in front of the lodge.

The mighty Kanjavec mountain lies between the Zasavje Lodge and Dolič. We can drive around this peak across the Hribarica mountain pass on the south or the Kanjavec Northern Ledges (Kanjavčeve police) which is one of the most exposed paths in our mountains. This path is named Pot Mire Marko Debelakove, after a leading Slovenian female mountaineer, and is only appropriate for the most experienced and skilled hikers. But the climb on Kanjavec is quite the opposite, as the peak can be reached by one of the least demanding routes you can find in Slovenian mountains, at least at this altitude. The only thing to remember is to plan your hike in nice weather – you really don’t want to get caught in the fog. The lodge can accommodate 40 people and has 40 seats in its dining room and in front of the lodge.

You can continue to Stenar, Križ, Bovški Gamsovec from this lodge. You can also pick the demanding route across Razor and Prisojnik that leads to Vršič. The mountain pass Luknja lies between this path and Triglav, and a technically demanding protected climbing path called Bambergova pot crosses it. So there are definitely some satisfying challenges that advanced mountaineers can bite into if they begin their hike at Pogačnik’s Lodge. Pogačnikov dom is often our choice on our custom hut-to-hut tours.

The lodge can accommodate 60 people and has 45 seats in its dining room and in front of the lodge.

The hut itself is a repurposed building that used to be a cheese dairy. It is named after the mountaineer Drago Bregar, who was the first Slovenian to die in the Himalayan mountains. This quaint cottage has 15 beds and a very friendly keeper who will be glad to offer you something to drink if you stop by.

Zavetišče Draga Bregarja stands a bit off the beaten path, and we sometimes make a detour to say hello to the caretaker on our Seven lakes 1-day hike.

Although the hut is already the final destination for many hikers coming from Bohinj, you can also go further to the Krn lake, the Hut at the Triglav lakes, or to Hut under Bogatin, which is just 15 minutes ahead on the plateau.

It is named after Klement Jug (1898-1924), a Slovenian alpinist, philosopher and author of many important mountain-themed works of literature. It was restructured from a former Italian military outpost in 1953 and has been renovated and improved a lot of times since. It’s able to accommodate 40 people in its rooms and 40 people in the dining room.

While most people that start here go to the lake, some people continue to the peak from which the lake gets its name, Krn (2244 m). You can also go hiking across the Komna plateau to the Komna Hut and descend to Lake Bohinj, the largest permanent lake in the country.
