Hiking: 19 km and 1900 m of elevation gain/loss
Triglav is Slovenia's highest and most iconic peak, with some of the most scenic trails in the Alps. While most hikers prefer a two-day ascent, a one-day climb can be an immensely rewarding challenge.
This route covers nearly 2000 meters of elevation and takes approximately 12-14 hours. It requires strong stamina and is best suited for experienced hikers. If you have a day and want to challenge yourself by climbing Mt. Triglav, this is the quickest way to experience Slovenia's most famous peak.
The journey begins in the beautiful Krma Valley. The ascent starts gently on a relatively easy trail. The rocky landscape offers a sense of calm that only mountains can provide.
As you ascend the gravel path, you'll pass a series of striking landmarks, cross rugged ridges, and encounter traditional mountain huts, each offering a glimpse into the alpine culture. The views grow increasingly spectacular, making each step rewarding as you climb towards Slovenia's highest point.
The final push to the summit is where the challenge intensifies. Triglav's via ferrata sections will test your resolve and require steady focus.
Despite the difficulty, the route is well-secured, and your guide will assist throughout. With the summit just ahead, each step brings you closer to the exhilarating reward of standing at the highest point in Slovenia.
The descent back to the valley is equally adventurous, offering breathtaking views, though it requires careful footing due to fatigue. Completing Triglav in a single day is an accomplishment worth celebrating.

My tour to Triglav was perfect from start to finish. My guide Luka was so lovely and kind and made sure I was okay the whole way, as well as pointing out the other mountains and animals along the way. He reassured me when I felt like I was being slow and let me know if we were on track and when we’d have breaks. Booking with Triglav Tours was so easy and the day before Luka was I contact to go over pick up times. He brought hiking poles for me just in case and I was so grateful he did! I couldn’t have wished for a better 2 days and the sunrise summit was a moment I will never forget. Words can’t express how grateful I am and how amazing the experience was!
What a wonderful 3-day hut tour! Our guide Jakob picked us up in the morning near Bled and brought us back there afterward. The first day pushed my tired legs to their limits during the ascent, but after that, everything went smoothly. A very beautiful and varied via ferrata to the summit! Jakob handled everything brilliantly due to his years of experience and high fitness: he recognized dangers in time, communicated calmly and relaxed, and found a solution for each of our concerns, even if that sometimes meant two backpacks... :). It was just so much fun. The nature is breathtaking, and we encountered some animals. I will cherish the pictures in my heart for a long time, thank you!
Absolutely unforgettable experience! Everything went super smoothly, from booking and interactions with the Triglav Tours office folks to my return home. Our guide, Jakob, was a wonderful young man, congenial, friendly, kind, good listener, funny, patient, experienced and helpful. He picked everyone up in the morning. He gave us useful tips at the onset of the hike. He knew exactly at what kind of pace we should be walking to make it to Triglavski dom na Kredarici, where we had a lunch break. He figured out exactly when we should start the actual climb so as to avoid the rain and make it back to the hut on time for dinner. He demonstrated how to use the ferrata set properly for the climb and guided us up and down the summit without a hitch. We had a perfect weather for the ascent and the following day we started the descent early enough, again, to avoid getting rained on. Finally, Jakob dropped each one of the four of us in the tour group at our home or hotel (wherever others stayed at the time). I am sincerely grateful for this tour and would most highly recommend it to everyone who is ready for a good physical and mental challenge because, let me be clear — participants must have enough stamina and not fear heights.
