Refugios de montaña en Alta Carniola

Alpine Huts and Shelters

This collection features essential mountain accommodation across the Julian Alps and Karawanks. It includes the Triglav Lodge at Kredarica, Slovenia's highest hut and meteorological station, alongside strategic shelters like the Aljaž Tower. These huts provide dormitory-style lodging, regional Slovenian cuisine, and access to major peaks like Triglav and Stol. Most operate seasonally from June to September, though several lower-altitude shelters remain open year-round or provide winter rooms for off-season mountaineers.
