Climbing the long German route on Triglav north face
A 1-day climbing trip on the impressive north face of Mt Triglav following the German route, together with Nejc, IFMGA mountain guide.
Julian Alps
1 Day

Description
Mount Triglav (2864 m) is the highest mountain in Slovenia and boasts a gorgeous north wall. This wall has more than 120 climbing routes. Would you like to join me for a 1-day adventure there?
This time we'll take the German route, one of the classic 'iron routes' in the Julian Alps. It's a solid 1000 m rock route with stretches of Grade IV difficulty in the UIAA Grading System.
However, the difficult spots are spread along the route on a balanced proportion. There's also a quite exposed climb on the upper part of the route, with a very scenic landscape.
Our starting point will be Aljažev dom in Vrata Valley. From there, we'll take the Prag Route and hike for almost 2 hours to the foot of Triglav's north face.
The German climbing route offers a few alternatives. We will take the "the long German Route", which consists in taking the North Ridge of Triglav. Following this way extends the route in 300 m and leads you directly to the summit of this symbol of Slovenia.
Would you like to join me on a climbing trip through the German route in Triglav? Contact me so we can start planning your adventure!
If you don't have much climbing experience or you prefer to pick an easier route, you can also climb the Slovenian route on the north face of Triglav with me.

Mountain Guide
Mountains have been a part of my life since childhood. I started doing more serious mountaineering expeditions at the end of high school after successfully completing all levels of mountain climbing courses. In the last 10 years, I have been at least on one expedition every year. I climbed in Argentina, Peru, Bolivia, the USA, Scotland, Slovakia, the Czech Republic, France, Swiss, Italy, Japan, Pakistan, Tibet and Nepal.
I completed my training as a mountaineering guide and became a full member of the IFMGA family.
I enjoy climbing both Slovenian and foreign mountains.
Some of my most unforgettable and also the most successful routes:
Tsoboje - Slovenian direct (2021)
Kang Ri - East pillar (2013)
Janak - Blue racer (2012)
K7 West - The dreamers of the golden caves (2011)
The route I climbed on K7 West was rewarded with Piolet d’or recognition for mountaineering achievements in the world.
If you want to climb the north face of Triglav (Slovenia’s highest mountain) or any other walls in Slovenia, please contact me. I also enjoy guiding ski trails in winter in the Julian Alps.

What people are saying about Nejc

We succesfully climbed Jungfrau and Monch with Nejc and his collegue Martin. It was a fantastic experience. Both were very helpfull and professional during our trip. The mittellegi ridge was unfortunately not possible due to the weather (too much snow) the mittellegi hut was closed. Instead, we drove to Zermatt for some better weather conditions en climbed Matterhorn until Solvay Bivak, a memorable experience. Thank you Nejc and Martin for a wonderful trip!
Hans
He made sure I manage to climbe Matterhorn. Im forever thankfull for that. I dont climb often but make to have time for the client to enjoy the view and get the few very "cool" pictures from the trip. Nothing more :)

Nejc is a really friendly yet professional guide and I was very happy with the guidance and coaching he provided. He possesses strong technical skills as well as fantastic planning for the hike. I successfully summited Matterhorn with him, a magical experience.
Damian
Nejc is a phenomenal guide. Way better than I could have hoped for and clearly the best guide on the mountain as was evidenced by a number of other guides following his route when they were more than a little off course. Can’t give enough stars

What a great day with Nejc! It may have been white out conditions with clouds but the climb and summit was amazing! Nejc was a joy to climb with and an incredible guide! Picked me up and we headed out to the park. He has so much experience as an elite alpinist and a great personality. Would love to climb again with him! Highly recommend Nejc and this trip.
