Koča na Poreznu

Koča na Porezno stands on the northern side a little below the top of Porežno (1630 m). The first hut, which stood at the top, was built by the Cerkljan branch of the SPD and opened on August 11, 1907. In 1922, the hut was occupied by the Italian border guard; In 1945, only ruins remain of it. In 1946, PD Cerkno decided not to restore the old hut, but to convert the Italian barracks just below the summit into a mountain outpost. The hut was opened on August 14, 1949. In 1974, the hut was named after the national hero Andrej Žvan-Boris (1915-1945), who fell in battle with the Germans on Porežno On March 24, 1945. In 1980, they began to restore and upgrade. A wooden second floor was built above the brick ground floor, and the old premises were renovated. The enlarged and updated outpost was opened on September 14, 1986. You are welcome!
