Peaks and Alpine Huts

This collection spans the rugged limestone ridges of the Karavanks and the forested plateaus of the Pohorje Mountains. It highlights Stol, the highest peak of the Karavanks at 2,236 meters, alongside historic mountain lodges such as Ruše Lodge, established in 1907. These destinations provide a network of high-altitude shelters like the Bertahütte and Roblekov dom, which serve as essential bases for navigating the border between Slovenia and Austria.
