First Time
Come explore the infinite woods and peaks of the beautiful Carnic Alps in this one-day snowshoeing trip. For winter lovers, this is the ideal adventure!
We’ll start in the Village of Sauris, located 1405 meters above sea level. We will then go towards Sella Festons, at 1860 meters. Some of the places we’ll visit include the Valleys of Sauris and Val Pesarina, famous among snowshoe hikers.
In addition, the Mount Oberkofel (2034 m) also offers breathtaking panoramic views of the Alps. That summit shows the Monfalconi, the Cridola, the Val Boite Dolomites and the whole chain of Monti Clap, Siera and Monte Cimon. We’ll even get to enjoy the Three Peaks of Lavaredo!
The terrain of the Carnic Alps is ideal for snowshoeing due to its exciting ascents and descents and beautiful landscapes. Besides, the immense woods add fun obstacles to the route. There are no technical requirements to join me on this great adventure. Make sure to bring snowshoes, sticks, leggings, ARVA, shovel and probe.
Book your trip now and get ready to snowshoe the Alps away! I can guarantee you’ll love this unique tour.

We had a wonderful day today with Dean as our guide at the "Tre Cime". He was very patient with us (we're not particularly fast walking up a mountain), but we never felt pressured. He offered us some additional detour to give us an additional special view, but made clear that we would have to see first if the conditions were good enough for us to pass, as otherwise it would be too dangereous. We were lucky and were able to walk on, but on the "dangerous" icy passage over a cliff he walked under my wife making sure she was safe - overall, we felt that we were in very good hands with you, Dean, thank you very much!!

Dean was very helpful and responsive to our enquiries. He was enthusiastic and devoted to show the prettiest side of Tre Cime to us. Although we were a bit behind, Dean was patient to wait for us and cater to our speed. Great experience!!

Dean is an excellent guide. He's friendly and conscientious and throughout or trip was focused on getting us to achieve our hiking goals while being aware of our abilities and experience. We chose a relatively tough hike (8hrs, 1,700m elevation gain) but Dean made sure we completed it safely and at a good pace. He also took photos throughout so we could concentrate on the hiking and shared them with us later. He was also good company on the hike. I would thoroughly recommend his services.

We were looking for a hike suitable for 4 adults with reasonable experience in hiking.Dean not only crafted a 5 day activity for us but was also able to adjust for routes to fit our needs during the hike itself. Dean proved to be a great guide with both knowledge and an amazing attitude and was simply so much fun to be with, Dean also went 'the extra mile' for us taking some of us to special activities which we did not plan for. If you are looking for hiking in Slovenia and getting an experience of a life time - I would highly recommend Dean. 5 starts all the way (And if there 6 he would get them as well :) ) Dean, thank you so much !

Dean was prompt and super knowledgeable about the area we were going to. He guided us safely to Slemenova Spica to enjoy the Julian Alps. As two girls from the city, we don't have much hiking experience, and he was patient and super helpful. We enjoyed our trip so much and it has been the highlight of our Slovenia trip. Thanks once again, Dean, for taking us on this experience!

Dean is a super experienced guide, he is very qualified to do all sorts of mountineering too if you are interested to try. I had a good time learning how to do snow shoeing and he is very patient in teaching me and assessing my abilities to suggest different routes which is suitable for my build and stamina. It was great and safe to have him as a guide because he knows the terrain well and that is good to know.
