Kredarica

Route Description for Kredarica

From the parking lot, follow the forest road. The road will lead you through some rocky areas. The path will curve right as it heads into the woods, turning into a rocky cart track. The path starts to climb through the forest.

You’ll reach the grassy plain of Vrtača at the height of 1400m. Continue across the plain and - in about 20min - you’ll turn right and enter a wider, grassy plateau. At the junction you’ll continue straight (the left path goes to Vodnik hut through Bohinjska Vratca). Cross the meadow and follow the marked path.

Ascending the overgrown slopes, you will reach a shepherd´s hut at the Zgornja Krma pasture. From the hut you’ll continue slightly to the right to the water trough. At the trough, turn slightly to the right and then walk a few metres higher to the left. Look for a rock with a sign for Kredarica on it.

As the path gains elevation you’ll reach some plains surrounded by pine groves where you’ll find a small crossroad. Continue to the right towards a rocky slope.

At the next junction, follow the signs for Kredarica/Triglavska koča (left of Vodnikov dom and right of Staničev dom). Next, the path begins to climb steeply below the slopes of Snežna konta. The area is called Kalvarija (meaning cavalry).

The gravel path turns to the left and connects with the path from Konjsko sedlo. Continue in the direction of Kredarica and turn right at the next intersection (left of the Planika hut). Following the path to the north you’ll reach a ridge, climbing up a great incline. At the top you’ll finally see the Triglav hut at Kredarica. Enjoy the views and savour your hard work.

When you’ve had your fill, return the way you came up.
