Description

Are you ready for a brilliant 3-day ski touring experience in the Julian Alps? This program is a superb endurance test in the Slovenian winter, starting at the Vogel ski resort. Bring your skis and backpack along, and let’s get started!

This Triglav ski tour, or ‘Magistrala’ – which means “highway” – is the only multi-day ski tour in Slovenia. I will guide you across the Julian Alps, from Vogel to Komna, in northwestern Slovenia. Some of the highlights of our tour over these 3 days will be:

  • the Seven Lakes Valley

  • the Hribarice and Velo Polje

  • Kredarica

  • the former Triglav glacier

  • the Krma Valley

The program will begin with a cable car ascent to the Vogel ski resort, and a traverse to Dom na Komni later. Have a look at a more detailed itinerary below.

This program is available from February to May. Each day requires between 5 and 9 hours of ski touring activity.

For this activity, I will take groups of between 3 to 6 people. As for your ski touring equipment, you will need mainly ski touring boots, ski skins, poles, avalanche probe showel and beacon, warm winter clothes, and a backpack.

Note: if you need to rent ski tour skis, you can receive a 15% discount if you go on a ski tour trip with me.

About the guide

I am an IFMGA mountain guide born in 1980 in Mojstrana, a Slovenian village close to Mount Triglav, the highest mountain in the country at 2864 m.

From an early age, my parents took me to the mountains during summer and winter. At that time, my father was part of a mountain rescue team in my hometown and was also going on expeditions to the Himalaya and the Andes, so he became a big inspiration for me. We went climbing, hiking, sport climbing and ski touring together. His enthusiasm truly influenced me.

I went to Alpine school, then Mountain rescue team, I did the Alpinist exam and I became an Alpinist instructor. After that, I also studied to be a professor of Sport. Several years later, I decided to begin my mountain guide education and to become an IFMGA/UIAGM certified mountain guide.

The trip itself and the via ferrata was nice with great views, however we didn't enjoy the guiding experience. He was rushing a lot, and asked us to hurry each time we tried to stop to drink or take a photo. On the way back he was walking 200 meters ahead of our group, was chatting on his phone, sometimes shouting back to hurry. Overall we spent only 4 hours climbing. Despite what was promised in the tour description, they were not willing to pick us up at Bled (unless we pay 160 euros extra), so we had to take a 35 min drive to the Kofler office. They also asked us to pack warm winter clothing which was super unneccessary given the very hot weather.

We spent three amazing days with Grega hiking Triglav and the seven lakes valley. Grega took care of all the planning while communicating with us any necessary changes due to weather/hut availability. He also was great company on the evenings and throughout the whole journey, making the experience even more special because of the friendship created.

We couldn't do the north wall of Triglav due to adverse weather conditions. So we did the Triglav winter climb through the normal route.

We enjoyed a magical day biking the bike trail to Kranska gora into Italy. Perfect trail well marked with stops for snacks. I recommend this trip for families of all ages. Electric bikes for our group of elders who still love adventures but not hill climbing. My best day in Slovenia! Thank you

Loved Slovenia and would highly recommend for those who enjoy the outdoors and walking. The via ferrata route was great for a morning hike. Stunning views and not too hard which was good given the heat that day. Our guide Borut (replaced by Gregor at the last minute as I had misjudged our dates so very much appreciated it) was lovely and made our trip even better.

We rented climbing gear from Gregor for one day, and since we came back very late, we didn't have time to return it, so we brought it the next day. Gregor didn't make any deal out of it at all, he was very courteous, smiled and only asked did we like it.
