I don't find a way to customize recentf to remember opened directory
names as well as file names.  So I have the following customization in
my .emacs.  Don't you think it is generally useful if the recentf
remembers directory names as well?

  (defun recentf-track-opened-directory (dir)
    "Insert the name of the directory just opened into the recent list."
    (recentf-add-file dir)
    nil)
  (add-to-list 'recentf-used-hooks '(find-directory-functions recentf-track-opened-directory))

Here's a variant I use, which Kevin Rodgers suggested a long time ago in
gnu.emacs.help:

(add-hook 'dired-mode-hook
	  (lambda () (when recentf-mode
		       (recentf-add-file default-directory))))
