Repna dolina - Pirnatova koča na Javorniku

Access to starting point:
From Logatec we drive towards Idrija. Just a little after the village of Kalce we will notice a road that turns left towards the villages Podkraj and Col. We turn onto this quite winding road and follow it to the inn Stara pošta (near the inn there is the archaeological site Ad Pirum, Hrušica) and a little further, to a junction where a road towards Javornik branches off to the right (the turn-off is marked). The road soon loses its asphalt surface, and we park in a suitable spot near the sign "Gozdna cesta - uporaba na lastno odgovornost" (Forest road - use at your own risk).
From Primorska we first drive to Col, then continue driving towards the village Podkraj. A few km after the village Podkraj, but still before the inn Stara pošta, we will notice a road that turns sharply to the left (direction Javornik). Further, we follow the above description.

Route description:
From the starting point we head onto the macadam road, alongside which we notice signs for Javornik. The road first ascends gently to moderately along the left side of Repna dolina, then temporarily ascends somewhat more steeply and turns quite sharply to the left higher up, where it flattens completely, or occasionally even descends slightly. After a short descent we reach a marked junction, where a path from the village Podkraj joins from the left, and we continue straight towards Javornik. The road continues ascending through the forest for some time, then flattens and brings us to a panoramic slope. The path then crosses a short stretch of forest and leads us to a smaller junction, where the road to Smučarska koča Javornik branches off to the right. We continue along the lower left road, along which we soon reach an abandoned house. Just before the house, the hiking signs direct us right onto a footpath, along which we ascend to Pirnatova koča na Javorniku in a few minutes.

The trip can be extended to the following destinations: Javornik above Črni vrh ( 10 min)

We recommend: trips from the same starting point, similar trips, panorama, summit register
