Ljubelj - Koča Vrtača

Access to starting point:
From the highway Ljubljana - Jesenice we go to the exit Ljubelj and follow the road ahead to the border crossing. Only a few meters before the border crossing signs for Zelenica point us to the left and after some 10 meters of additional driving the road brings us to a parking lot below the ski center Zelenica.

Path description:
From the parking lot, we go on a footpath in the direction of Zelenica, Vrtača and Stol. The cart track, which runs on the left side of the ski track, after approximately 15 minutes of moderate ascent through the forest brings us to the previously mentioned track by which we then ascend. The path, which offers nice views of the extensive scree of Begunjščica on the left and the ridge of Ljubeljščica on the right, then in a gentle ascent brings us to the hut on Vrtača.
