Multi-pitch climbing in Triglav: Slovenian route

Multi-pitch climbing in Triglav: Slovenian route | Slovenia

Matevz, an IFMGA mountain guide, takes you to the less demanding climbing route on the mythical North Face of Mount Triglav, the highest peak in Slovenia.

Julian Alps

1 Day

Jun - Sep

Intermediate


Description

Mount Triglav (2864 m) is the highest peak in Slovenia and boasts one of the most impressive walls in the Eastern Alps. Why don’t you join me for a rock climbing trip on Triglav North Face?

There are more than 100 climbing routes on the North Face of Triglav. In this programme, I propose to take you to a classic one: the Slovenian route.

This is also one of the less demanding routes you can find here, even though it has some steep sections and should not be underestimated. But basically it’s a great route for beginners.

We will reach the base of Triglav after a 45-minute drive. Once there, we’ll start climbing this 700 m high climbing route, which has a grade III according to the UIAA grading system. We’ll spend between 6 to 8 hours climbing. 

If you’d like to join me on this exciting rock climbing trip in the mythical North Face of Triglav, send a request to book this trip!

Please note that you can combine this trip with any other you wish and receive a discount. You can check out other trips I offer in the Slovenian mountains, like Hanz route via ferrata in the Julian Alps.  Besides, you can ask about other non-mountain activities including horseback riding, mountain biking, skydiving, paragliding, kayaking, hot air ballooning and more!

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 had an amazing time climbing with Matevz near Bled! He took us to his hometown crag and found us several routes that suited our skill level. Strongly recommended.

Stunning hike up Debela Pec with our guide Timotei from Altitude Activities. Everything was exactly as we hoped - super kind and friendly guide, beautiful scenery, fun hiking in the snow and a great traditional Slovenian lunch at the hut on the way down. Great experience!

We only had a small time in Bled and wanted a half day snow shoe tour. The company were very accommodating and were able to offer a shorter tour for us based around our needs. Very easy to book and communicate about where to meet etc. Our tour guide was great, very friendly and welcoming. He took the tour at our pace and we enjoyed the hike. Would highly recommend 👍🏽
