Located where the Alps meet the Mediterranean and the Pannonian Plain meets the Karst, in the heart of Europe, Slovenia is a top spot for both short and long getaways. The people are hospitable and friendly, the landscapes are jaw-dropping and the culture is lively and vibrant.

On this one-week program, we will create an itinerary that will allow you to enjoy the best snow in the country. Furthermore, we will take care of all the organization and details so that you can focus on the fun and avoid the hassle of coordinating logistics.

Super ! Nous avons passé une excellente après-midi avec Willy ! Nous avons eu des conseils et des recommandations pour pouvoir continuer la pratique de via ferrata. Je recommande vivement cette expérience

Lena

We had a very exciting day with Willy! We had never done a via ferrata before and did Pont-a-Lesse and Marche-les-Dames in one day. Willy explained the different techniques very well and adapted to our wishes and the circumstances perfectly. Gauthier adviced us in the beginning correctly that Marche-les-Dames would be better for us than Les-Grandes-Malades in terms of difficulty. Overall we were very happy with the choice, spend a great day outdoors and can definitely recommend this adventure!

We had a really fantastic day of bouldering in Fontainebleau with our guide Ivan. He is very experienced and knows the region well. He showed us great boulders and routes that we would not have found on our own, and kept a good pace to keep us going for the full six hours.
