Hikes from the door
Paths towards Mount Krn (2244 m) and the pastures below it start above the village. Shorter walks lead to the waterfalls nearby and the Koseč gorge.
Getting here and the area
8 km uphill from Kobarid, to the last house in the village
Drežniške Ravne is a village below Mount Krn at about 630 m. The Berginc house stands at the end of the village, where the road ends and the footpaths begin.
The way up
- KobaridThe last supermarket, bank and petrol station before the climb. Do your shopping here.
- Across the Soča towards DrežnicaThe road crosses the Soča at Napoleon Bridge and starts to climb in bends.
- DrežnicaA village with a church. From here it is about 3 km, or 7 minutes, to the house.
- Drežniške Ravne 42The road gets narrower near the top. The house is the last one in the village, with the car park right next to it.
The drive from Kobarid takes about 17 minutes. The road is asphalt but narrow, and in places two cars can barely pass. You can't get to the house without a car.
“Location and the views are amazing, but be prepared for steep and winding road from Kobarid (nothing too extreme, but it takes around 15 min).”

What to do below Krn
The Soča
The river is 10 minutes away by car. On the Soča there is rafting, kayaking, canyoning and fishing, and in summer swimming from the shingle banks of the Soča and the Natisone.
The Isonzo Front
The valley was a First World War battlefield. The Kobarid Museum, the museum in Drežnica and the open-air museums at Zaprikraj and Kolovrat are close by.
Evenings at the house
There is no traffic and hardly any lights. Guests write about the silence, the dark sky and the fireflies in June.
For a day trip to Bohinj, the car train from Most na Soči through the Bohinj tunnel is a good shortcut.
