4 Days

I invite you to join me in the only real hut to hut splitboarding traverse in Slovenia, around Mount Triglav. Many mountain huts are closed during winter. But we will spend two nights in different mountain huts and one in a winter room in Prehodavci, equipped with food, gas and blankets (so we don’t need to carry anything extra).
This trip goes across the Julian Alps, from Bohinj to Mojstrana, at the bottom of the highest mountain in the country: Mount Triglav. We will make the whole traverse off the beaten tracks. In fact, we should not see anybody during the 4 days.
The itinerary goes through the Triglav National Park almost entirely.
You need to have at least some prior splitboarding experience. But you don’t need to be a really good snowboarder to join this tour. We might use crampons and ice axe when going up slopes of 40°. You should be able to go down 30° slopes. Skiers are also welcome.
I know the region and the National Park very well. I will make sure you come back home safely. I will also share with you many stories and information about the area, the local culture, the landscapes and mountains surrounding us during the trip.
So please get in touch with me for any additional information and if you want to book this tour with me.
Or you can also check other trips I guide around this area, like my 1+day splitboarding tour in Kranjska Gora, Slovenia or my Julian Alps 4-day guided tour with splitboard.

Mountain Guide
I am a IFMGA certified mountain guide, ski instructor, and sports teacher.
I believe guides do their best job when they guide in the mountains they are most familiar with. That is one of the biggest reasons why I specialize in guiding in Slovenia. I climb Triglav more than 25 times per year, which means I have climbed the most famous peak in my country around 400 times.
If you want to climb or ski in the Slovenian mountains, I am the right choice. I guide via ferrata, rock climbing, snow climbing, ice climbing, hikes, freeride skiing, and ski touring. Most of my summer work involves climbing Triglav, and most of my winter work involves Triglav and ski touring around it.
Slovenia offers good options for all of these activities, so you are welcome to take a look at my trips and find something for yourself. If you don't find anything, let me know, and I will see if I can help you!
I speak English. Ich spreche auch ein bisschen Deutsch. Parlo anche un po' di Italiano e hablo también un poco de Español.
If I am not available to guide you, one of the super experienced guides in my team will be your guide.

Such a relaxed and informative guide. I honestly wish it went for longer. He encouraged and praised us through the more challenging parts and I always felt safe. The mountain hut was also comfortable and the food was so good! Highly recommend.

Mitja was an incredible guide. He made the whole adventure fun, and motivated us all the way up the mountain.

Mitja was a wonderful guide from beginning to end. He led our group at a good pace to the hut and gave us great recommendations on the way. Most importantly, he made us feel safe during the via ferrata (it was our first time!) and helped us build some self-confidence. We climbed to the summit on day 1 and we were lucky to have the perfect weather conditions and a fantastic group of people. Weather can be unpredictable in the mountains so it was convenient to have a knowledgeable expert lead us who knows the mountain like Mitja. In addition to learning a lot about hiking and mountaineering, we got good insight into Slovenian culture thanks to Mitja which is only a bonus. We truly couldn’t have asked for a more encouraging guide that made us feel safe and enjoy the journey. What an incredible adventure!
