Visiting mountain huts with children Mountain huts are increasingly adapting to families with children by offering:
– meals in children’s portions,
– inside kids’ corners with toys,
– outdoor playgrounds,
– specialized furniture (highchairs, guards, stools, etc.). The certificate Family-Friendly Mountain Hut has been received by more than a quarter of mountain huts, in which the staff constantly strive to the best of their abilities to make the stay at the hut a pleasant and memorable experience for the youngest mountain climbers and their parents. These huts can be relatively easily accessed along well-maintained mountain trails and attractions for children are located in their surroundings.

Respect the environment and other hikers in the mountains
Take your trash back to the valley.
Use water and other resources sparingly.
Designated quiet time at mountain huts is between
22:00 and 6:00. (* At Erjavčeva mountain hut quite time from 22:00 and 07:00.)
Dogs are welcome at the huts, but they are not allowed to be taken inside into a hut. (* We are very pets friendly at Erjavčeva mountain hut. Pets are allowed in the hut, restaurant and in a private rooms. With no extra costs.)
You can reach mountain huts by following marked mountain hiking trails.
Mountain huts are trying to minimize their negative impact on the fragile mountain environment.

Tradition and atmosphere
The first mountain huts were built over 120 years ago. Erjavčeva mountain hut was build in 1901 and it was the first at Vršič pass. Despite some renovation, they reflect respect for the tradition and heritage of the time in which they were
constructed.
Most of the huts have a wood-burning stove or a fireplace, which creates a sense of warmth and cosiness, as well as comes in handy for drying wet clothes.
Within each hut there lies a story of its past, which is reflected in the hut’s furniture and facilities – let the hut manager’s kind words uncover the secrets of the hut and its surroundings.

Welcome!
The house rules of mountain huts are old, and some are already outdated. At Erjavčeva mountain hut, we have partially adapted the rules, which we believe are more in line with modern times.
During the warmer months, when the road is not covered in snow and you can drive to Erjavčeva mountain hut, we increasingly resemble a guesthouse or even a hostel (we don’t like to be called hostel 🙂 with beds rather than a traditional mountain hut. However, when the road is closed due to snow and the hut can only be reached on foot, we once again become a true mountain hut.

A mountain hut invokes the notion of pleasant relaxation during a more or less demanding hike, or a mountaineering tour in a diverse natural environment. Mountain huts are a welcome stop on your way to conquer mountain peaks, a safe haven during bad weather or in difficult times, or simply a popular destination for many hikers and friends of the mountain world. Registered under the auspices of the Alpine Association of Slovenia, there are 164 mountain huts and 15 bivouacs in Slovenia. They are spread over the entire country, with the exception of Prekmurje.
Huts serve as checkpoints along many connecting paths, among which the longest are: the Slovenian Mountain Hiking Trail (56 huts), and the Slovenian Mountain Bike Route (54 huts).
Huts in high mountains are open during summer season, while other huts are mostly open all year long – some every day, some only during weekends. Erjavčeva mountain hut is open the whole year, except in November. Mountain huts are also information points, where you can find out more about marked trails and their condition, nearby peaks, weather forecast, as well as learn about the local peculiarities and traditions.

Culinary
Mountain huts have limited energy and water resources, and simplified logistics, so they offer a classic and tested, but still delicious menu of mountaineer dishes. The huts which are accessible by road have a wider selection of dishes. In all huts you will eat well, if you are an omnivore or a vegetarian, and most importantly, you will taste traditional homemade dishes.
The dishes to get you back on track are: jota (sauerkraut stew) with meat, ricet (barley porridge with beans) witn meat, goulasn, various casseroles, sausages, ajdovi zganci (crumbled buckwheat porridge), and additionally, pasta, soups, bograc (thick beef stew or goulash), gnocchi, and dumplings.
Sweet tooths can indulge in a wide variety of strudels, pies, flancati (fried dough rectangles) and some hut-specific home-made desserts).
