The Kanjavec mountain (2,569m) in the Julian Alps is a marvellous peak. Located in the Triglav national park, this amazing peak is a wonder within a mountain range full of wonders. And on on this 2 day trip, you will have the chance to enjoy an exciting ski touring adventure on that peak.
The ski tour trip will begin at an altitude of about 600 metres, at Zadnjica, in the Trenta valley. From there we will make our way further and further up the Kanjavec mountain. The ascent is not too difficult and the views during the ascent are spectacular, as you will get to see an abundance of the range’s surrounding peaks, as well as the vastness and beauty of the Triglav national park.
At the end of the first day, we will reach a mountain hut at the Prehodavci pass (2.071m), where you will get to enjoy a comfortable night’s sleep. Early the next morning, you will get to enjoy some wonderful skiing descents on the Kanjavec mountain’s slopes. And while where we ski will depend on weather and snow conditions, I know this area very well, so I will be able to properly and safely guide you to the right spots by way of the right routes. Thus making sure you have the opportunity to enjoy a memorable and thrilling skiing experience.
The Kanjavec mountain is just one of many great highlights in the Julian Alps of Slovenia. However, it is definitely one of the best, and certainly worth a visit, not just for the views, but for the skiing as well. So if you would like to join me, all you have to do is send me a request.
I can also take you on another ski touring adventure in the Kanin mountains.

Mountain Guide
I'm an IFMGA mountain guide and also a mechanical engineer based in Celje, Slovenia. Over the past years, I’ve been on more than 700 alpine trips in the Western Alps, the Dolomites, Peru, Turkey and Greece. My favorite activities are climbing and skiing.
In Peru, for example, I made a descent from the southern saddle of Vallunaraju (5696 m). Another challenging downhill on skis that I did was in the northern wall of Bavškega Grintavca and the massif Kanin.
In addition to mountaineering, I enjoy practicing other sports like rock climbing, biking, whitewater kayaking and Pilates. I think these activities are a great source of spiritual and personal growth.
I also love spending time with my family: my wife, daughter and our dog.
