Description

Would you like to discover the stunning Triglav National Park in Slovenia? Then come with me on this exciting 2-day guided snowshoeing adventure with overnight at one of the cozy mountain huts.

Snowshoeing is a great way to explore winter landscapes. It is easy on the joints and an exciting activity for all. On this 2-day adventure, we will have the chance to visit the beautiful snow-covered meadows, valleys, and forests of the Julian Alps. Some of the highlights of our trip will include stopping at the famous Bohinj lake, touring the Mt. Krn trails and more. You can find a tentative itinerary below, although we can adapt and tailor it to suit your level.

Keep in mind that we will spend approximately 4-5 hours snowshoeing each day. There will also be altitude gains of around 700m, and descents of around 1400m. Therefore, although technical experience is not required, a good fitness level is. In the evenings, we will stay at one of the lovely Slovenian mountain huts which will give us the chance to enjoy a full Julian Alps winter experience.
