Throughout the Triglav national park in Slovenia, there is an abundance of fantastic places to explore, admire and enjoy. Varied, diverse and gorgeous, the park is home to a vast collection of great spots for those who love the outdoors. And on this trip, I would like to guide you on a canyoning adventure at the Fratarica canyon that will last half day.
Our trip will begin at a predetermined location that includes Bled, Kranjska Gora or Mojstrana. After a short trip, we will go to the Fratarica canyon. This amazing canyon rests under the Loska Stena wall. It is also surrounded by several peaks that are part of the stunning Julian Alps. As a result, you will get to enjoy a far reaching view that will leave you in a state of awe.
As for the canyoning itself, the area you will be enjoying can be demanding. Hence why participants should be in good physical condition. You should also have some prior experience and know how to swim because a lot of time will be spent in the water.
Throughout the trip, you will get to enjoy a number of jumps and slides. You will also get to enjoy the highest waterfall descent in Slovenia: the Parabola waterfall. This rope descent consists of 48 thrilling meters.
Great views and great fun, this canyoning trip will certainly be memorable. And by the end of it, I have no doubt you’ll want to enjoy it all over again. So if you would like to join me on this adventure, just send me a request. I would be happy to help you enjoy the Fratarica canyon.
I can also take you canyoning in Bled, on this full day trip.

Mountain Guide
I’m a certified IFMGA mountain guide and canyoning guide living in the small and famous town of Bled, in Slovenia.
I started rock climbing at the age of 5. From that time on, the mountains became my playground. During my childhood, I took part in many rock climbing competitions. When I was 12, my twin brother and I did our first multi-pitch climb on a 350 m wall.
By the age of 16, I started competing in ice climbing world cups and later on skydiving junior world cups. In fact, in 2008 I became the world champion at the UIAA Ice Climbing Overall Ranking in speed ice climbing.
I climbed in many different countries like Peru, South Korea, Switzerland, France and Italy. However, Slovenia is the place I like the most.
Among other significant achievements, I did the first winter ascent (from the bottom of the wall) in Sphinx, the most difficult route in the mythical North Face of Mt Triglav. Besides, I got the first place for males at the IFMGA International mountain guide climbing championship in 2017.
I like sharing moments with people, especially in mountains. Feel free to join me in the highest mountains, steepest walls and many other Alpine wonders. I’m flexible, so we can also research places in other countries worldwide. Deep canyons, emerald rivers, beautiful mountains, great people, a good laugh, you name it.
I look forward to meeting you!

We loved our hike with Alex! She was incredibly kind, knowledgeable, and just fun to be around. This hike was a highlight of our weeklong trip - thank you!

The guides were both amazing . They were real teachers and patient and very knowledgeable. I felt safe the whole time. They also were photo takers which was honestly a major positive contributing factor. I want to focus on my climb and not taking pictures and they took so many and it was really wonderful.

Incredible day :) Highly recommend ~ - My guide was thoughtful, easy-going, witty and eager to impart good climbing etiquette. We shared great conversation and had lots of fun together! A true highlight on my time whilst travelling. - The picking up/ drop off was handy

A sensational experience. I booked the Triglav winter climb as a "Bucket List" dream. It did not disappoint. I have very little experience of mount climbing but felt very safe throughout. The guides supported our groups needs and made sure we had the best time possible. The photo's they provided us of the experience were a great reminder. You need to have a reasonable level of fitness but they take care of the rest. 10/10.
