    Tips

    The hut stands on top of the sunny Mežnar meadow on the western part of the elongated ridge of Kriška gora. PD Križe started building it in 1950; in 1951 it was already open in an emergency. The completely renovated cottage was ceremoniously opened on June 28, 1953. In 1963, an extension with a dining room and a common bed was added. In 1975, a freight cable car was built from the village of Gozd. In 1981, the cottage was enlarged and renovated. As it became too small and no longer met the more modern requirements of visitors, PD Križe decided to increase and restore it. In 1991, the old hut was demolished and a new one was built, and the ground floor premises were completed.

    Views:
    From the terrace in front of the hut there is a beautiful view to the east, south and west, and from the nearby ridge above the hut also to the north. On the east side, in front of us are the grassy sunny slopes and ridge of Kriška gora, which ends with Tolsti vrh, Storžič rises behind it, and to the right of it we can see part of Krvavec; in the south there is a wide view of the Ljubljana Basin and the lower part of the Gorenjska plain with Kranj and the hills that surround them from the western part of the Posavje hills through the Crimea and Polhov Gradec hills to the Škofja Loka mountains and on the horizon to Snežnik, Javorniki and Trnovski gozd; in the west the forested Jelovica and Pokljuka rise, and behind us we can see Julijce with Triglav and in this direction also Lake Bled, and in front of it the upper part of the Gorenjska plain with Radovljica; the view to the west stops at nearby Dobrča and north of it at Stol and Begunjščica; in the north we see the Lom valley from Tržič to Storžič and the mighty Košuta massif with all its peaks from Veliki vrh to Košutnikov turn.
