    For a long time, it was disputed whether the mountain that steeply descends to the northeast belongs to the Karawanks or the Kamnik-Savinja Alps. Meanwhile, affiliation to the Karawanks has predominately been established... which is irrelevant for the magnificent view anyway. In clear air, it extends to Triglav.

    Author’s recommendation

    The route can ideally be combined with a visit to the Snezna Jama (snow cave).

    Roadbook

    From the Snezna Jama parking lot, first follow the signpost towards "Arta Alm". Here, the path turns west and leads gently uphill through the forest, well marked, to the base of the southern ridge of Raduha. Here the path turns right and becomes steeper until it reaches the broad summit ridge, over which you turn right and finally reach the highest point. For the beautiful view, plan a generous summit break.

    From the broad summit, continue in the same direction until you reach the branch to Koča na Loki pod Raduho (Loka hut). Follow this to the right. After an optional stop, keep right again at the hut and follow the path that runs roughly parallel to contour lines back to Arta Alm. From there, return on the familiar path to the parking lot.

    Note: From the hut, you can also alternatively follow the Julius Kugy path south, but then must walk a considerable stretch on the road back to the parking lot.

    Directions

    From Luče take road 428 northeast and then turn left to the settlement of Strmec. There, turn towards Koča na Loki (Loka mountain hut) and Snežna jama (snow cave). Follow the signposts along the initially paved gravel road for about 15.5 km to the parking lot below Koča na Loki. The parking lot for the snow cave is another 2 km from there.
