DOM NA KOFCAH MOUNTAIN HUT CAN BE REACHED BY MANY EASY, MARKED PATHS
EASY
By car through the town of Tržič to the Dovžan Gorge, then continue to the village Jelendol, left past the Bornov grad castle, continue along the macadam road to the hill to the crossroads – from Jelendol about 10 min, turn left again. Here, the road is aligned, and we drive for another 10 minutes on the slopes of Košuta to the parking lot (Kofce – mimo Kapelice. There, we park the car and go on foot for about 30 minutes along the forest path towards Kofce meadow.
A LITTLE HARDER
From the main road ‘Tržič – Ljubelj Pass’ turn to the right in Podljubelj village and follow the signposts for Kofce. Leave your vehicle by Matizovec farm. The road ends here and it gets very crowded on sunny weekends.
Go straight on a dirt road from Matizovec farm and follow the signposts. The path gradually ascends through the forest and in about an hour you arrive to the cute Kofce alpine meadow. The forest ends here and views in all directions begin to open. ‘Dom Na Kofcah’ hut and a charming pasture hut offer food and refreshments.
NEARLY 1000 VERTICAL METERS
By car we drive to the town of Tržič, we pass through the city center past the church of St. Andreja and the pizzeria We turn right under the castle to the Neuhaus castle. Let’s leave the car there and go on foot. We have about 3 hours walk in front of us to get to Kofce hut.
The path from Tržič is considered as one of the most picturesque trails, as on the way we meet many already forgotten mountain plants or animals.
FOR MOST COURAGEOUS
We start the tour on the main road over Ljubelj Pass (Loiblpass). Coming from Tržič, you park after the last tunnel, when you pass the big scree slope on the right. It is just before the monument to nacistic concentration camp. The other option is one turn on the road higher (you have some more altitude, but also some more slopes crossing)..
