The Kamnik Saddle Lodge (Slovene: Koča na Kamniškem sedlu;[1] 1,864 meters or 6,115 feet) is a mountain hostel located just below the Kamnik Saddle (Slovene: Kamniško sedlo), with Mount Brana to its west and Mount Planjava to its east, and the Kamnik Bistrica valley to its south. On its north is a steep descent toward the Logar Valley, home to Rinka Falls.
The hut was first built in 1906, then rebuilt in 1983, and then again slightly modified in 2010.
