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.

Excellent trip from start to finish. Well coordinated and Rok was an incredible good. Would highly recommend to anyone.
Danielle
Having a guide allowed us the ease of ‘simply’ climbing and not the worry about navigating and timing in our day. Blaz was a steady, calm and experienced presence that was a needed influence, especially for a few of the seemingly daunting climbs. We amazed at the ease Blaz seemed the glide up the mountain as we used the huffing and stumbling techniques
