Mountain Hut.

Make sure to bring warm clothes, mountaineering gear and good climbing shoes. Skill level: beginner to intermediate. Fitness level: Fit, able to climb 4-6 hours, 1500 meters (5000 feet) on day 1, and ascend 400 meters and descend 2000 on day 2. During weekends and holidays, this program is 150 EUR higher per group. Special service: ascent and descent on a different route can be discussed. Climbing with children less than years old is not recommended. There is usually no snow anymore on the trails, it is beginners to intermediate level ascent; you’ll just need proper hiking shoes and some warmer clothing as it is a high mountain and could be windy and cold at the summit. There are 3 main trails to the huts below the summit: - from Pokljuka forest highlands; - Krma, deep U shape glacier made valley; - or Vrata valley, steep technical ferrata climb wit astonishing Triglav N-face views on the side. From each hut the trails to the summit are steep, climbing on rock, secured by steel cables - via ferrata. We always use rope between you and the guide for 100% safety. As this is a 2-day climbing trip, we don’t need to start really early in the morning, let say around 8am! After meet up, we’ll drive 45 min. by car, to one of Mt. Triglav’s trailheads. From there to reach the hut is 4 to 6 hours climbing. The huts are simple, but they serve hot meals until 8pm. In the afternoon, we take a rest or walk to the view points. Before going to bed, we check the equipment like harness, helmet and learn about rope up system. On Day 2 start is early, 5 to 6 am. The climbing on scramble terrain and sometimes narrow rocky ridge which is really amazing From the summit you can enjoy fantastic views: lake Bled, lake Bohinj, Adriatic sea, Dolomites, Austrian alps. Usually, on the descent we take the same route, although that will depend on weather conditions and takes about 3 to 5 hours to get back to the hut. After the short rest, we return to the valley and should be back at the car park from 2:00 to 3:00 pm. Afterward, I’ll drive you back to your hotel or railway/bus station. Meeting point: I will pick you up at your accommodation. If you have your own means of transport, we can meet directly at the car parking close to our trail head (I will inform you the exact point). Equipment: for this ascent, you will need to bring your own proper clothing and own mountaineering shoes. We can rent backpacks, walking poles etc. 10 EUR/item, payable in cash directly to the guide after the climb. Please note we don’t rent shoes/boots. Food and drinks: You should take 2L of water, also sometimes is possible to buy drinks along the way at the mountain huts. Insurance: please make sure you are individually insured appropriately with international travel insurance which specifically covers hiking and mountaineering. Other: sometimes trip itinerary may be altered and/or date change can be discussed, case by case, based on the weather forecast. I will try to modify my schedule and we’ll do our best to make our guests happy. I would advise you to make your schedule flexible as well. The guide will choose different road approaches and climbing routes, time of the early morning start etc. Sometimes people will get light altitude sickness (dizzy, headache etc...)
