Rinka Waterfall

Highlight • Waterfall

This waterfall is a must visit in Slovenia. To the left there is a path up to a rustic hut. Arriving at the top with a decent appetite is worth a hearty lunch followed by a cozy descent, where you can enjoy the magnificent view - slip-resistance provided;)

Kamniška Koča Mountain Hut

Highlight • Mountain Hut

Kamniška koča is situated just a few meters below the Kamniški saddle, located between Brano and Planjava. The hut which is open in the expanded summer season also has a winter room. For a better view we have to climb to a three-minute remote saddle from which we see the Logar Valley and in the hollow of only this waterfall Rinka with its Eagle's Nest. It is nice to see the mountain Mrzlo, Brano and Planjavo. To the hut, which is part of the Slovenian hiking trail, a freight lifts leads to the transport of food and other necessary items for the supply of huts.

Rudijev Dom, Donačka Gora

Highlight • Mountain Hut

Description
The home is located on Polajžar's lawn in Sedel, below the top of Donačka gora, which was named after the church of St. Donat. The old name of the mountain is Rogaška gora, as it looks like a horn from Rogaška Slatina. The first hut was built just below the peak by the Rogaška branch of the SPD from Rogaška Slatina and opened on May 26, 1929. It was burned down during the war in 1943, but was not rebuilt later. PD Sloga Rogatec decided in 1974 to build a new home. They searched for a suitable location for two years, and in 1976 they started building a mountain home. In 1977, the road to the home was repaired and widened, and then in 1980, the lower premises were arranged and a refuge was arranged for mountaineers. Due to financial problems, the home and log cabin (outbuilding) were extended and opened only on June 23, 1984. At the opening, the most deserving member, Feliks Zalezina, cut the ribbon at the front door. Later, during the celebration of the 40th anniversary of PD (June 11, 1988), the mountain lodge was named after a local, cultural and sports worker and long-time member Rudi Lebič (1929-1984), who also worked during the construction of the lodge.
There are 80 seats and a bar in the catering area, 100 seats at the tables in front of the house, 20 beds in 5 rooms, and an additional 40 beds in the shared beds. The home has a toilet, a washroom with hot and cold water, a dining area (heated by a rustic stove) with running water and electricity.

Smrekovec Mountain Hut

Highlight • Mountain Hut

The mountain hut stands below the southern foothills of the Smrekovec peak at a height of 1375 m. Passing the hut leads the Slovenian mountain crossing, which comes from the direction of Slemen and continues along the Smrekovo mountain range. Hikers can go from different directions. You can also reach a hut with a car from the direction of Ljubno or from Šaleška or Koroška. At the cottage there are children's playgrounds and a facility with extensive information about the entire Smrekovo mountain range, which is classified in the so-called. Natura 2000, the so far the largest nature conservation program of the European Community for the protection of wildlife and their habitats. Smrekovec is also the only volcanic mountain in Slovenia. Many people do not know that its time was an active Smrekovec volcano, so we find it far in the soil of rocks that are the product of lava or ash. Spruce vulcanism was active about 30 million years ago in the geological periods of tertiary: oligocene and miocene. From the house the view is a bit limited, for which we will be rewarded if we climb from the hut to the top of the same peak - Smrekovec. The home is permanently open during the summer and otherwise during the weekends. Good food and hospitable staff. You are welcome.

A small bar (coffee, beer, wine, soda, snacks) intricately built into the rock with a beautiful view of the Rinka waterfall. A dream when the weather is nice. The hut was built in 1968.

Andrejev Dom na Slemenu

Highlight • Mountain Hut

The Andrejev dom na Slemenu refuge is located in a clearing on the north-eastern side of Sleme (1167 m), in the ridge that connects Uršlja Gora with Smrekovac. The refuge was built between 1951 and 1952 on the initiative of Planinsko Društvo (PD) Šoštanj, thanks to the voluntary work of mountain lovers, but above all of the employees of the then Tovarne usnja Šoštanj, a famous tannery that made the history of the local industry in the mid-20th century.

Officially inaugurated on 21 September 1952, it takes its name from Andrej Stegnar (1906-1981), initiator of its construction, then president of the Šoštanj PD as well as director of the tannery. In 1960 the construction of the annex began, which was inaugurated on 16 July 1961. Until 1975 the refuge was managed by the local Alpine club, then taken over by Tovarna usnja herself who renovated and modernized it. Today it offers catering service in two restaurant rooms and a large terrace. There are 31 beds in 15 private rooms and another 52 beds in three dormitories.

Menina Planina Hut

Highlight • Mountain Hut

Be sure to try the iconic dessert (name forgotten) in the hut – a mixture of strudel and pancake, filled with sweet cheese (probably similar to curd cheese).

August 3, 2025, Rinka Waterfall

The Rinka Waterfall is one of Slovenia's most beautiful and most visited natural attractions and is considered the source of the Savinja River. It is particularly impressive in spring and autumn with its large volume of water, while you can enjoy the view with a drink in the nearby Orlovo gnezdo.
