Ridovc / Ridovcsäge - Koschutahaus (via valley of Mrzli potok)

Access to the starting point:
From the motorway Ljubljana - Jesenice, take the exit Ljubelj (Tržič) and then continue in the direction of Klagenfurt / Klagenfurt. After the Ljubelj tunnel, the road starts to descend and we follow it to a junction where the road to Borovlje / Ferlach branches off slightly to the right and downwards. The road continues to descend and quickly leads us to the aforementioned place, where we soon cross the railway line. Just after the railway line, we join another road, which we follow to the right, and we follow it towards Sele / Zell - Pfarre. Higher up, the road leads us through a short, picturesque gorge, and then we soon reach a sharp left turn at the Ridovc homestead, where we see yellow mountain direction signs and a bus stop. Park somewhere nearby in a suitable place along the road.

Path description:
From the Ridovc bus stop, continue along the asphalt road (right along the macadam road for 15 minutes, a longer route through the valley of the Hude Cave), which you leave after a few metres and continue to the right towards a nearby residential house, which you pass on your left. After the house the road turns into cart track, which you then follow for some time as you climb along the Mrzle potok. At a higher altitude, join the forest nature trail and follow it to the right, first crossing the stream and then, after a short climb, leaving it as the signs lead you left onto a relatively steep path. Climb up the slope quite steeply for a while, and then the path and slope lay down. There is a short walk along cart track, then cross the road leading from Sele towards Koča pod Košuto.
There is a steep climb of a few minutes, then we return to the road, and we follow it out of the forest to Mrzli log.
From here you can either continue to the right along the marked path that continues along the valley floor, or along the parallel dirt road. Wherever you continue, after about 15 minutes of further walking you will reach the Cottage pod Košuto.

On the way: Mrzli log (1185m)
