Julian Alps Mountain Huts

The Julian Alps feature an extensive network of mountain huts, known locally as "koče," managed by the Alpine Association of Slovenia. These shelters range from high-altitude lodges like Kredarica, which serves as a year-round meteorological station, to valley-based cabins in the Soča and Tamar regions. They provide essential accommodation, local food, and weather protection for hikers traversing the Slovenian High Level Route and those summiting Mount Triglav.
