Information updated

Venetitsa Hut is located in the Konyarnika locality of the Ibar section of Eastern Rila, at about 1,400 m above sea level. The complex consists of two adjacent buildings, an old two-storey wooden one and a new three-storey solid one. From 1994 to 2000 the hut was abandoned. In 2019 it took on a new keeper.

The hike starts in the Dolna Banya villa zone near Sveti Spas village, where there is a place to park. From there a wide dirt road along the Bistritsa River leads to the hut in about 1 h 20 min, while the shorter and steeper forest path is marked yellow. From the hut there are routes to Belmeken Hut (4 h 30 min) and Ibar Peak (5 h).
