Šija Mountain Lodge (1528 m)
Highlight • Mountain Hut
It is arranged in a former Yugoslav caravan, which the scouts of the Kriška gora family have transformed into a pleasant mountain shelter. The scouts use the lodge for their activity, and they have also opened it for all mountaineers, hikers in short, all those who want to spend part of their time in the Košuta mountain range. They offer 34 beds, in 4 rooms, an apartment with 6 beds and authentic home-made food, prepared a little after camping. Due to its location, the Šija mountain is less besieged than the neighboring Kofc and thus offers a completely authentic experience of the mountains.
The scout home can be a starting point for ascents to the surrounding peaks or just tours of the mountains below Košuta.
In half an hour, the snake trail takes you to the crossroads of the trail to Veliki Vrh and Kofce gora (along the Fronc ridge), where you can descend back to the mountains or conquer other peaks from Kladivo all the way to Košutnikov turn. You return across the mountains along the border path.
You can choose the path past the top of Šija through the meadows straight to Kladiva (the path is not marked).
Border paths lead you to the neighboring mountains; west to Kofc, east to Pungrat mountain, Tegoška mountain or even Dolga njiva mountain.
