I am a IFMGA certified mountain guide, ski instructor, and sports teacher.

I believe guides do their best job when they guide in the mountains they are most familiar with. That is one of the biggest reasons why I specialize in guiding in Slovenia. I climb Triglav more than 25 times per year, which means I have climbed the most famous peak in my country around 400 times.

If you want to climb or ski in the Slovenian mountains, I am the right choice. I guide via ferrata, rock climbing, snow climbing, ice climbing, hikes, freeride skiing, and ski touring. Most of my summer work involves climbing Triglav, and most of my winter work involves Triglav and ski touring around it.

Slovenia offers good options for all of these activities, so you are welcome to take a look at my trips and find something for yourself. If you don't find anything, let me know, and I will see if I can help you!

I speak English. Ich spreche auch ein bisschen Deutsch. Parlo anche un po' di Italiano e hablo también un poco de Español.

If I am not available to guide you, one of the super experienced guides in my team will be your guide.

Mitja was a brilliant help :)5
Not an easy hike by any means with elevation gains of a tad over 2,000 metres over a distance of c.10km in a day, if heading up all the way to the peak on first day itself. That was what we did due to weather conditions. But the guides were vigilant and helpful, hence no issues for our group. Highly recommended friendly & responsible guides for those wanting and willing to torture their glutes and calves and quads etc etc...5
Matej was absolutely wonderful. He took care of us very well, during the trek, the hut, the meals, he evaluated very good our skills and helped us doing the summit in one day. He is very well prepared for eveything, communicative and very kind. We recommend him any time. He is just great.5

I had the most amazing experience being guided to the summit of Mount Triglav by Rok, one of Mitja Sorn’s team. I had visited Triglav in my twenties and always sworn I’d return, so this was a very special moment for me. We couldn’t have been in more capable hands, and the group dynamic was second to none. A truly memorable experience that I couldn’t recommend highly enough.5
Really enjoyed this trip and the guides were helpful and efficient 😀5

Cveto was not only an excellent guide, he was a great guy and we really enjoyed a couple of days on Triglav in his company. We laughed a lot and have great memories from our trip. He was also super accommodating when some of our baggage didn’t arrive and we wanted to change days to allow us to get the bags before the climb. We had a great time and I’d highly recommend Cveto and Mitja if you’re looking for an adventure on Triglav5

Having a guide allowed us the ease of ‘simply’ climbing and not the worry about navigating and timing in our day. Blaz was a steady, calm and experienced presence that was a needed influence, especially for a few of the seemingly daunting climbs. We amazed at the ease Blaz seemed the glide up the mountain as we used the huffing and stumbling techniques5

Thank you Mitja & Matej for your expertise, patiense and excellent guiding. Such a beautiful experience and you skillfully took into consideration all levels of physique, fears and temperaments. We had such a good time with you, will recommend to everyone. - Team Finland.5
We had an absolutely incredible experience hiking Triglav! Our guides, Mitja and Matej, were extremely professional, friendly, and perfectly prepared. They made us feel safe and comfortable throughout the whole adventure and were ready for everything — nothing was missing. The organization was excellent from beginning to end. Everything went smoothly, the atmosphere was great, and the hike was really fun. The weather was perfect, and Triglav and the surrounding mountains were absolutely beautiful, with breathtaking views everywhere we looked. What made the experience even more special was enjoying a beautiful sunset and sunrise, seeing an amazing sky full of shooting stars, and even witnessing a solar eclipse. Reaching the peak of Triglav was the perfect highlight of an already unforgettable adventure. A huge thank you to Mitja and Matej for their professionalism, organization, positive energy, and attention to every detail. They made this trip truly special. I would highly recommend this experience and these guides to anyone looking for an unforgettable mountain adventure in Slovenia!5

Mitja was an incredible guide. He made the whole adventure fun, and motivated us all the way up the mountain.5
Mitja was a wonderful guide from beginning to end. He led our group at a good pace to the hut and gave us great recommendations on the way. Most importantly, he made us feel safe during the via ferrata (it was our first time!) and helped us build some self-confidence. We climbed to the summit on day 1 and we were lucky to have the perfect weather conditions and a fantastic group of people. Weather can be unpredictable in the mountains so it was convenient to have a knowledgeable expert lead us who knows the mountain like Mitja. In addition to learning a lot about hiking and mountaineering, we got good insight into Slovenian culture thanks to Mitja which is only a bonus. We truly couldn’t have asked for a more encouraging guide that made us feel safe and enjoy the journey. What an incredible adventure!5

Robert

Mitja was a tremendous guide. Superb pacing, great knowledge and calming leader!

Ron

Mitja was a terrific guide and kept us entertained throughout the climb. We also had Janus, and though he was much quieter, he was very knowledgeable and certainly qualified in First Aid and Mountain Emergencies (thankfully non of that was needed!). All in all, a really great experience and one we'll talk about for many years.

James

Tough trip physically but what an amazing journey. Our guide Mitja got in touch so I could join an existing group otherwise I wouldn’t have been able to do the climb and I’m so glad he did. For what looks quite extreme it felt completely safe throughout with our two guides Mitja and Matej planning around the conditions and leading us expertly. Would recommend to anyone comfortable with long hikes and heights.
