Krn Lake, Julian Alps, Guided Ski, Snowshoe Tour
Whether ski touring or snowshoe touring, exploring the Krn Lake in the Julian Alps of Slovenia is amazing, and UIMLA certified guide Dean wants to lead you.
Description
The Krn mountain (2,244m) in the Julian Alps of Slovenia is an amazing peak. Surrounding the mountain are beautiful rivers like the Soca river, the Tolminka river and the Lepenjica river. Along with those rivers, there are also several large peaks and small villages, like Vrsno, Dreznica, Magozd and Krn. And finally, on the northern side of the peak is the Krn lake, which is the largest glacial lake in the country.
Because there is such an abundance of amazing things to see around the Krn Lake, it is perfect for touring on skis or snowshoes. And on this trip, you will have the option to use either one. Also, because the area is so large, this trip can be extended to multiple days. And on each day, we will be touring for approximately 7 hours. However, you don’t have to worry about accommodations because there are a number of comfortable mountain huts in the area. And each hut has comfortable beds where you can rest until the next day’s touring adventure.
With an area of this size, and with so much to see, there are an almost endless number of routes to choose from. Hence making this trip around the Krn Lake area one of exciting variety. We will choose the routes based on a number of factors. They include weather conditions, the snow conditions, and the physical level and desires of the participants.
The Krn Lake is a beautiful body of water. And the Slovenian landscape around it is absolutely stunning. If you would like to join me on a ski tour, or snowshoe tour, for one day, or multiple days, in this beautiful place, just send me a request.
I can also guide you on a snowshoe tour through the Triglav national park.

Dean was very helpful and responsive to our enquiries. He was enthusiastic and devoted to show the prettiest side of Tre Cime to us. Although we were a bit behind, Dean was patient to wait for us and cater to our speed. Great experience!!

Dean is an excellent guide. He\'s friendly and conscientious and throughout or trip was focused on getting us to achieve our hiking goals while being aware of our abilities and experience. We chose a relatively tough hike (8hrs, 1,700m elevation gain) but Dean made sure we completed it safely and at a good pace. He also took photos throughout so we could concentrate on the hiking and shared them with us later. He was also good company on the hike. I would thoroughly recommend his services.

We were looking for a hike suitable for 4 adults with reasonable experience in hiking.Dean not only crafted a 5 day activity for us but was also able to adjust for routes to fit our needs during the hike itself. Dean proved to be a great guide with both knowledge and an amazing attitude and was simply so much fun to be with, Dean also went \'the extra mile\' for us taking some of us to special activities which we did not plan for. If you are looking for hiking in Slovenia and getting an experience of a life time - I would highly recommend Dean. 5 starts all the way (And if there 6 he would get them as well :) ) Dean, thank you so much !

Dean was prompt and super knowledgeable about the area we were going to. He guided us safely to Slemenova Spica to enjoy the Julian Alps. As two girls from the city, we don\'t have much hiking experience, and he was patient and super helpful. We enjoyed our trip so much and it has been the highlight of our Slovenia trip. Thanks once again, Dean, for taking us on this experience!

Dean is a super experienced guide, he is very qualified to do all sorts of mountineering too if you are interested to try. I had a good time learning how to do snow shoeing and he is very patient in teaching me and assessing my abilities to suggest different routes which is suitable for my build and stamina. It was great and safe to have him as a guide because he knows the terrain well and that is good to know.
Dean was very attentive to all. Easy to talk to and informative
