Description

Would you like to feel more confident in your freeride skiing or snowboarding experiences? Then join me for an avalanche safety workshop at the Vogel Ski Resort!

Located an hour away from Ljubljana, the Vogel is one of the most famous ski resorts in  Slovenia. It stands above the Bohinj Valley, next to Lake Bohinj, and its nearest city is Bled. Opened in 1964, this area offers more than 30kms of pistes, and a huge terrain for powder descents.

This day course is ideal for snowboarders and backcountry skiers. We will focus on avalanche training.  The Vogel Resort offers a multi-burial simulation polygon that is perfect to understand the real dynamics of avalanches. We will work on: planning a freeride skiing or snowboarding trip, the necessary equipment and its usage, how to recognize snow conditions, and safety protocols. The most important thing is that you will be able to test what you have learned!

Keep in mind that for this course you will need to be at an intermediate or advanced level. I strongly recommend it for anyone who wants to take their skiing and snowboarding to the next level and plan more challenging adventures!

So book your place now and I will teach you what I know on this avalanche safety workshop in the Slovenian Vogel Ski Resort!

I also offer freeride skiing and snowboarding trips in this same area. Check them out.

Mountain Guide

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.

What people are saying about -Mitja

Alex

Was thoroughly impressed with Mitja and his guiding throughout the journey.

Megan

Franc was so upbeat and fun to be around! He kept up a positive and encouraging demeanor throughout the trip. Great knowledge of Triglav and the surrounding area.

Hayley

Our guide Franz was brilliant. I had confidence that he would get us to the top safely and enjoyed his pace. He took great care of us in the hut and was a pleasure to hike with. We also had a second guide for the summit part. Apologies I forget his name, but he was also excellent and a pleasure to hike with. Both excellent examples of mountain guides.

Satbir

From start to finish, we had an amazing experience. The trip was tailored perfectly to fit our tight schedule, and everything ran smoothly. Tadej picked us up and took great care of us from the very beginning, making us feel well looked after throughout. The final climb was absolutely incredible — an unforgettable highlight of our trip. Tadej again kept us safe and alive! We’re so glad we booked with a guide, as it made the whole experience far more enjoyable and stress-free. Highly recommended!
