The Vojko Hut sits in a sheltered location just underneath Pleša (1262 m), one of the peaks of Nanos, a high karst plateau that rises dramatically over the Upper Vipava Valley. 

It is a place where hikers can rest and enjoy a warm meal or a drink, or can spend the night and await sunrise at the top of the plateau and enjoy the beautiful view of the Slovenian part of the Alps, Mt. Snežnik and the coast.

Inside the hut, the dining room seats 50 people, but guests can also sit at the tables in front of the hut. 

You can overnight in two private rooms for 2 people, one 12-bed dorm or one 14-bed dorm. The hut has room for 30 people on bunk beds.
