Koča pod slapom Rinka - Brana

Access to starting point:
We drive to Luče (from Mozirje or via Kranjski rak) and onwards towards Logarska dolina. Soon after the village Solčava we come to a junction, where the road to Logarska dolina branches off to the left. We turn left towards Logarska dolina (toll payment) and drive along the road to the parking lot at the mountain hut Koča pod slapom Rinka, where we park.

Path description:
From the parking lot, we head onto a wide tourist path which starts gently ascending. After a good ten minutes of walking, we come out of the forest, where we arrive at a junction. We go left (right Orlovo gnezdo 3 minutes) in the direction of Dom na Okrešlju. The path ahead crosses a small bridge and on the other side starts to ascend more steeply. After a short ascent, the path brings us below the walls, from where a crossing to the top of the waterfall follows. This part is exposed to falling stones. The path then crosses Savinja again and further ascends along the river with the help of steps. Next we ascend on the right side (left bank) of Savinja. Soon we come to the source of Savinja, where we cross the water again. On the other side, the path goes into dense forest and after a short ascent brings us to the winter shelter on Okrešlju. We continue left and in a few steps we come to Dom na Okrešlju.
At the hut we head onto the path in the direction of Kamniško sedlo and Savinjsko sedlo. Soon we come to the edge of a panoramic meadow, where there is a junction. We continue left in the direction of Kamniško sedlo on the path which first moderately ascends through the forest and then across a belt of shrubs. The path then levels out completely and in a short crossing brings us to the scree, on which we ascend on a well-made path to the entrance into the less demanding wall. Further with the help of numerous fixed protections we ascend one level higher, where the steepness eases somewhat, but the path is still quite steep and exposed to falling stones. Higher the path brings us to a steep scree that is dangerous for slipping in snow, which we merely cross. A short ascent follows on a wide and somewhat exposed ledge, after which the path brings us to the extensive grassy slopes of Kamniško sedlo. Just a few steps further we come to a junction, where we continue right in the direction of Turska gora and Brana (left Kamniška koča na Kamniškem sedlu 10 minutes). The path, which further ascends the increasingly rocky slope, quickly brings us to scree that is dangerous for slipping in snow. We cross the scree in a gentle traverse ascent, then the path brings us to the next junction, where we continue left (right Turska gora). The path ahead ascends ever more on the shady slopes of Brana. The steep path secured at key points, which is not particularly demanding, soon brings us into a small gully, up which we ascend with some easy scrambling to a nice vantage point. Here we continue sharply right on the path which after a further 10 steps brings us to the summit slope of Brana. Here the steepness eases and the nice panoramic easy path brings us in a few minutes to the spacious summit.
