Kokrsko sedlo (mountain saddle), at an elevation of 1793 metres, lies between Kalška gora to the south and the southeastern ridge of Grintovec with the Dolge stene to the north. It forms a distinct mountain pass between two very different alpine valleys – the forested, shaded Kamniška Bistrica and the more open, agricultural Kokra Valley. The saddle is a natural gateway into the central part of the Kamnik–Savinja Alps, offering views toward the northern walls of Kočna and Grintovec as well as the broad slopes of Kalška gora. Because of its position, it has long served as an important starting point for ascents of the surrounding peaks, including Grintovec, Skuta, Kočna and Kalška gora.
The first mountain hut on the saddle was built in 1897, reflecting the early development of mountaineering in this part of the Alps. The present‑day Cojzova koča, managed by the Kamnik Alpine Club, was thoroughly renovated in 1988. With 17 rooms and 105 beds, additional shared sleeping quarters for 30 people, and a winter room with 12 beds, it is one of the larger huts in the area. Its open position and location at the crossroads of several routes make it a lively stop for hikers, while its long history places it among the notable points of Slovenian alpinism.
The approach from Kamniška Bistrica begins at about 600 metres above sea level. The marked trail first climbs through forest, then continues across more open slopes beneath Kalška gora before reaching the saddle; the ascent takes roughly three and a half hours. The second common approach leads from the Kokra Valley past the Suhadolnik farm, starting at around 900 metres. This route is shorter and more direct, reaching the hut in about two hours.
Kokrsko Saddle is a place where natural routes, mountaineering history and characteristic alpine scenery come together. Because of its accessibility and its position between two contrasting valleys, it remains one of the most recognisable and frequently visited points in the Kamnik–Savinja Alps.
