Storzic, Kamnik-Savinja Alps, Guided Winter Ascent | undefined

Description

Storzic (2,132m) is definitely one of the easiest mountains in the Kamnik-Savinja Alps to climb. And even though this trip takes place during the winter season, it is still an appropriate trip for mountaineering beginners. However, despite the easy reputation of the peak, it is still a mountain. As a result, Storzic cannot be underestimated. But I will see to it that throughout the approximate 3 to 4 hour climbing time, you will be safely and properly guided to the summit.

Once you reach the summit of Storzic, the views you will get to enjoy are magnificent. And because the top of the mountain is in the shape of an almost perfect cone, which is how the peak got its name, the views are also remarkably panoramic.

A few example of what you will be able to see from the summit include the Ljubljana Basin, the Javornik Hills, Mount Krim (1,107m) and the Nanos Plateau, and that is just to the south! Meanwhile, to the north, there are the Karawanks mountains, and to the east are Mount Grintovec (2,558m), which is the highest mountain in the Kamnik-Savinja Alps, and the Kalce Ridge (2,224m). Finally, to the west, you will be able to see the Julian Alps, and the highest peak not only in that range, but in all of Slovenia, Mount Triglav (2,864m).

So if you are a relatively inexperienced climber, looking to scale a great peak during the winter, then this day long trip to the top of Stozic is for you. And when you consider the amazing views you will get from the summit in every direction, you can’t go wrong. So send me a request, and join me on this great climb!

I also lead a day long trip to the summit of Dolgi Hrbet as well, which is also located in the Kamnik-Savinja Alps.

Mountain Guide

I’m a mountain guide based in Bled, Slovenia. Climbing and alpinism are a big part of my life and I feel like mountains are my second home.

I was introduced to the mountains by my father, a mountain rescuer and a romantic alpinist. He made sure that I don’t see the mountains only as a sports playground but also as a place where a person can enjoy and get to know himself better.

Living in the heart of the Slovenian Alps gave me a chance to develop all disciplines of alpinism: hard rock climbing and wild ridges in the summer, sketchy mixed climbing and ski touring in the winter. I am fortunate that climbing took me on expeditions all over the world, from Patagonia to Himalayas. Since being on the higher ground is my second home, becoming a mountain guide came naturally.

As a mountain guide I want to share my passion for mountains in a respectful and friendly way. What drives me is bringing the beauty of higher mountains and alpinism closer to people who want to enjoy higher peaks but need safe guiding.

Martin is a complete professional on and off the mountain. Always willing to share insights and knowledge about alpinism and climbing and made me feel comfortable and safe at all times. Whenever I had questions before the climb he would always be quick to answer with all the relevant information. The summit attempt of the Matterhorn was a success and Martin brought joy, knowledge and energy throughout the entire process.

Martin Zumer is an incredibly skilled climber who successfully guided me to the top of the Matterhorn. I felt safe with him for the entire trip, and I developed confidence in my own personal climbing abilities with his guidance. It was a lot of fun to climb with him and learn from him, and I would highly recommend him as a guide any day.
