Access to starting point:
a) Drive to Metlika and further to Radovica. Cross the small border crossing Kašt into Croatia. A narrow road leads us through smaller settlements into the forest, where we follow signs for Sošice. When we arrive in Sošice, park at one of the parking lots at the visitor center.
b) Exit the Rijeka-Zagreb motorway at the Jastrebarsko exit. When reaching the roundabout before the town, take the first exit towards Zagreb and Karlovac. Drive all the way to Čeglje, then turn right towards Bregano. Follow this road to Krašić and further past the famous church Grkokatolička Crkva Blagovijesti to Strmec Pribićkega, continuing on the main road. A long, ascending and winding road leads us through forests and several hamlets. When arriving in Sošice, park at one of the parking lots at the visitor center.
Route description:
From the starting point, proceed forward along the ascending road. After about 5 minutes, reach a junction and turn left. The right road leads to Hartje and Samobor. At the junction is a small chapel and some signs. The road then loses its asphalt and becomes gravel. When the settlement ends, a sign soon directs right onto the path. Initially a cart track, it quickly becomes a wider path leading through dense spruce forest. The path steeply ascends to a small clearing, turns slightly left and levels out. Higher up, it crosses a cart track and ascends again through spruce forest. Then it traverses the slope for a while, then turns into a gully which we later leave. The path turns left and steeply climbs to a road, which we follow right. We walk along the road for a few minutes, then markers lead left onto a path cutting the road bend; rejoining it, the hut comes into view. Just a few more steps along the road past a water spring and across a small meadow lead to it.
Description and images refer to the condition in October 2025.

The hut is in a very nice location, but I think it hasn't been operating for quite some time. Correct me if anything has changed.

From what I researched, it should be open, as turbo also wrote and attached the source. But it was closed on 18.10.2025 too. I'll remove the sentence about opening hours from the hut description.

This hut has been closed for some time, while the one in Sekulići is open only by arrangement with the mountaineering society managing the hut. I live nearby so this is accurate information.
