Description

Step into adventure on one of our country's pioneering via ferrata routes! Since 1969, the Furlan Route has welcomed climbers from all around the world.

Created by Otmar Černilogar in honor of Fritz Furlan, this route offers a thrilling 145-meter climb rated as difficulty B. At the summit of Trikot, you'll enjoy a gentle 50-meter descent that connects you seamlessly to the next challenge.

The Otmar Route begins with a challenging 50-meter section that is slightly overhanging, both crosswise and vertically. This segment demands significant physical strength and technical skill. With an overall height difference of 235 meters, the route is rated as difficulty C and culminates in a spectacular view of the Vipava Valley.

You can choose the Furlan Route, the Otmar Route, or even combine both for a truly comprehensive guided adventure. For your safety, we recommend a basic self-protection kit, including a helmet, climbing harness, and self-protection system. Don’t worry if you lack your own gear—our agency offers rentals to ensure you're fully equipped.

Our guided ascents are available by appointment and are perfect for adventurers aged 12 and up. Enjoy hassle-free transport with our pick-up service from your room, apartment, or hotel, and let us take care of all the technical details.

Come join us for a memorable journey into the heart of adventure!
