The small refuge with rudimentary management is a good place to take a break after visiting the summit. It's just a few minutes below the summit and the view is phenomenal when the weather is good. The official name of the hut is “Gomišckovo zavetišce na Krnu”.

Krn (2,244 m)

Highlight • Summit

One of the highest peaks in Slovenia, the fantastic view rewards the climb. As there is no shade on the path, caution is advised on very sunny and hot days. After rain, the path over meadows and stones can be slippery.

Stone Staircase and Artillery Positions, Triglav National Park

Highlight • Historical Site

Watch for the markings along the trail, as it's easy to get lost and take the wrong path (more thrilling but especially more dangerous). You shouldn't be afraid of heights.

World War I remnants at the Batognica summit

Highlight • Historical Site

It's a rather eerie place if you think about the history of the mountain range between Krn and Batognica. The peak of Batognica was actually blown off by an accidental weapon depot explosion. Furthermore, the whole area is traversed by tunnels/mines used for fortification and tunnel warfare.

Ascent 1367 HM total, great round, I can only recommend it. It's best to go around like this, so the ascent doesn't drag too much 🥵🥰⛰

Today we went to Krn. We spent the night there and were able to walk up at a relaxed pace at 6 a.m. The climb was quite challenging, so surefootedness and good shoes 🥾 are highly recommended, as well as a good level of fitness. Once at the top, you have a fantastic view of the Julian Alps 🏔️. Personally, …

The journey from Bovec was already adventurous shortly after arriving in Kobarid. The Slovenian serpentines are tough. A little hint: make sure you let the GLS messenger overtake you. He is definitely faster and has little time. 😉
