Povden - Krekova koča na Ratitovcu

Access to starting point:
From Škofja Loka we drive towards Železniki and further to the village Zali log. When after the village Zali log forest road branches off to the right (direction Ravne and Torka) we go on this road. When the road brings us to the sharp right turn in which is a crossroad we turn right. The road then brings us to a hamlet Torka. Here we turn right (left Zabrdo) and we drive to a saddle Po(v)den near of which we park on one of the parking lots by the road.

Path description:
From the parking lot, we at first walk to a saddle Povden (Poden), where there is a crossing. We continue left in the direction of Ratitovec on the path which in a moderate ascent crosses a lane of a forest and then passes on steep grassy slopes. The path ahead steeply ascends on a steep grassy slope, which in wet and snow is dangerous for slipping (in the winter danger of avalanches). This increasingly panoramic path on which steepness suddenly decreases higher brings us on an ample pastures of Ratitovec. Here the path turns a little towards the left and then in a gentle ascent in few additional minutes of walking, it brings us to the mountain hut on Ratitovec.
