Tips

October 5, 2023

Hiking

At 5,013 feet (1,528 m), Risnjak is the highest point in the national park that bears its name. It rewards hikers with tremendous views across the surrounding mountains and forest, with other principal peaks like Snjeznik and Guslica clearly visible on a good day. To the south of the summit is the Schlosser hut, which provides great food and handy accommodation.

Hiking

A beautiful, highest peak and viewpoint in Risnjak National Park, surrounded by beautiful forests. It takes about 15 minutes to climb to the top from the cottage, a rather overgrown and stony path.

Hiking

A wonderful view from the summit, but a demanding climb towards the end.
