I'm interested in how much time you need to hike this tour and what the difficulty is?

For this tour you need approx. 9-10 hours if you go from Grintavec to Kokško sedlo and then to Kamniška Bistrica - where someone can easily pick you up by car.
The path itself is very demanding, through Turški žleb there are lots of pegs, then towards Skuta there could be more pegs at some spots, it's very crumbly. From Skuta to Grintavec is super for walking, nicely secured. Don't recommend this tour to people who hike a bit in mountains and don't have much fitness.
Great if you have a proper helmet and harness - otherwise you can pass it quite fine.
Happy trails.

Helmet and harness obligatory, especially if planning to go over Dolgi hrbet.

Turški žleb was brrr for me. Personally I prefer the variant Okrešelj-Mrzli dol-Rinka-Skuta even if it's an hour longer - lots of pegs here too - exposure one of the biggest in KS Alps - but not so much hanging on the rope as in Turški žleb

Hanging on ropes and completely collapsed path in upper part of the Žleb. Nice to split the tour into 2 days; first day to Kočna, sleep at Češka or bivouac, then day 2 Ledine, Baba, Storžek.. and back towards Okrešelj.

especially Dolgi hrbet not for vertigo sufferers, but very well secured. Turški žleb is unpleasant though.

Hi.
Next week I plan to do this route. I'm interested in which path to take from Skuta to Grintovec and which hut to overnight at if I decide to do the route in two days.
thanks and best regards

Definitely Cojzova koča, so you don't descend through Mlinarsko dol to Češka koča. Or yes, down over Mlinarsko sedlo to Češka koča, then up over Kranjska koča and Jezersko and Savinjsko sedlo to Mrzli dol and back to Okrešelj. Best to check the map "Grintovci" (1:25.000) and plan a tour that is optimal for you. LP

Forgot to mention, no need to return to Logarska, I have transport either here or in Kamniško or wherever I get to the asphalt
I'll check the map, yes, thanks.

Decision is entirely yours, how far you want to go. Definitely to the top of Grintovec via Skuta you'll need from I assume Logarska dolina via Okrešelj ca 7-8 strenuous hours (and you'll have to be diligent). Descent to Cojzova koča ca 1 hour 15 minutes, to Češka good two hours if sliding on scree. If crossing Dolgi hrbet from Skuta count extra good hour, if bypassing Dolgi hrbet you save half to three quarters of an hour. Last year I needed from Cojzova koča to Grintovec, Mlinarsko sedlo, Dolgi hrbet to Skuta and descent to junction with traverse to Turska gora and Kotličeva to Kamniška koča na sedlu good 10.5 hours with stops. Good luck. LP

I meant to sleep after descending from Skuta. Next day I'll climb Grintovec and descend towards Kamniška Bistrica. Maybe besides Grintovec I could go somewhere else, depending on time.
