Dr. Klement Jug Hut

Highlight • Mountain Hut

Serviced hut at the end of the Lepena Valley, there are drinks and changing local dishes, which are best asked from the staff. Here is a good starting point for the worthwhile hike to the two picturesque mountain lakes Dupljesko Jezero (Lake Duplje) and Krnsko Jezero (Lake Krn).

Lake Krn

Highlight • Lake

Very beautiful mountain lake with turquoise blue water and a great mountain panorama all around. Swimming is not allowed - but a perfect place to relax on the shore and enjoy the view. In the south you can see the summit of the Krn (2,244 meters) when the weather is good.

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.
