Construction works at the Vršič pass

We look forward to the arrangement of parking facilities, especially at the top of Vršič, so visitors can finally follow the rules and park their cars properly. After all, we are still located within the Triglav National Park.

We would also like to remind everyone that the traffic sign indicating the occupancy of Vršič in Kranjska Gora does not apply to Erjavčeva koča and does not reflect the actual situation at Erjavčeva koča and its parking lot. Thus, the sign may indicate full occupancy when our parking lot is empty. The sign also does not apply to guests who have booked accommodation at Erjavčeva koča or wish to stop by for lunch or dinner.
