Raduha, Mountain summit in Zgornja Savinjska Dolina, Slovenia.
Raduha is a mountain summit in Zgornja Savinjska Dolina standing at 2,062 meters with steep rocky walls facing northwest. Spruce forests cover the southern slopes, creating the peak's natural landscape.
The peak first appears in written records in 1426 under the name Radoch, derived from ancient Slavic personal names such as Radoslavъ. This early mention shows the site had long been known to local people.
The name Raduha was recorded in 1426 as Radoch, a hypocorism of a Slavic personal name such as Radoslavъ. Two mountain lodges, Koča na Loki (1,534 m) and Koča na Grohatu pod Raduho (1,460 m), serve as stops on the marked routes to the summit.
Several marked trails from Koča na Loki lead to the summit, with routes taking between 1.5 to 2 hours depending on difficulty level. Sturdy footwear and weatherproof clothing are important to bring, especially during shoulder seasons.
Near Koča na Loki lies a cave that stays frozen year-round, ranking as the highest-elevation tourist cave in the country. This ice formation draws visitors who want to experience cold temperatures even during summer.
