Koča pod slapom Rinka - Planjava

Access to the starting point:
We drive to Luce (to get here from Mozirje or via Kranjski rak) and on to the Logar valley. Shortly after the village Solčava, you will come to a crossroads where the road to the Logarska dolina branches off to the left. Turn left towards the Logar valley (pay the toll) and follow the road to the parking area at the cottage under the Rinka waterfall, where you park.

Path description:
From the parking lot, follow the wide tourist trail, which starts to climb gently. After a good ten-minute walk, you will emerge from the forest and reach a crossroads. Turn left (right Orlovo gnezdo 3 minutes) in the direction of the house at Okrešlju. The path crosses a small bridge and starts to climb steeply on the other side. After a short climb, the path leads us under the walls, from where we cross to the top of the waterfall. This part is exposed to falling rocks. The path then crosses the Savinja again and continues upwards along the river using steps. The ascent continues along the right-hand side (left bank) of Savinjek. Soon you reach the spring Savinjek, where you cross the water again. On the other side, the path goes into a dense forest and after a short climb leads to the winter shelter at Okrešlju. Continue to the left and in a few steps you will reach the house at Okrešlju.

At the home, take the path towards Kamnik and Savinja saddle. Soon you will come to the edge of a meadow where there is a crossroads. Continue left in the direction of Kamnik saddle on a path which climbs moderately at first through the forest and then through lane of bushes. The path then lies completely flat and in a short crossing leads us to a scree slope on which we climb along a well-worn path to the entrance to a less difficult wall. Next, with the help of a number of fixed safety gear, we climb a step higher, where the steepness eases a little, but the path is still quite steep and exposed to falling rocks. Higher up, the path leads to a steep and slip-prone scree slope, which is only traversed. There is a short climb up a wide and slightly exposed shelf, after which the path leads us to the vast grassy slopes of the Kamnik saddle. Only a few steps further we reach a crossroads, where we continue left (right Turska gora and Brana) and follow the gently sloping path surrounded by meadows in a few minutes down to Kamniška huts.
At the hut, head east in the direction of Planjava, which is still a two-hour walk away. The way forward initially crosses a scree slope in the upper part and then becomes technically difficult. The path then climbs up a wide shelf and leads us to the Planjava wall. To help us, the fixed safety gear, which take us through shelves and ravines where there is still snow in early summer to the top of the less steep slopes of Planjava. The path continues along the high mountain grasses and leads us to a crossroads, where we turn left (Korošica on the right). Follow the path, which becomes quite steep in places, towards the top of Planjava. Just a few minutes below the summit, the path from Logarska dolina and Korošica joins us from the right. The path from here onwards is no longer difficult and quickly leads us to a scenic peak.
