This one-day tour takes you from the Krma Valley to Triglavski dom na Kredarici (2,515 m), the highest mountain lodge in Slovenia.

Starting in the spruce forests of the glacial valley, your view will expand with each meter of elevation gained, with the snowy landscape stretching endlessly before you. Near the top, you’ll spot Kredarica hut, one of the most accessible high-altitude locations in the Julian Alps during winter.

Once you've taken in the breathtaking views, the highlight of the tour begins: a long descent of skiing bliss. The route is gentle, with 1500 meters of elevation loss, making for an enjoyable experience.

Thanks to the southern slopes, snow conditions are often optimal, particularly in late winter or early spring when the snow quality is at its best.

Safety is our top priority, so the tour only proceeds if conditions are suitable. Our guide will confirm when there's no avalanche risk and will provide details on the necessary equipment, including crampons and an ice axe when needed.

For an even more epic adventure, we can extend the tour to the summit of Mt. Triglav. From Kredarica hut, the ascent is too steep for skis and must be completed on foot, with crampons and an ice axe. Prior experience with this equipment is essential.

Frequently Asked Questions

Although Triglav is not the most difficult mountain to climb in Slovenia, it still requires a certain level of experience.

Climbing Triglav without the experience (or someone who has it) with moving in exposed and steep terrain, route-finding, and knowing the local weather conditions can lead to dangerous consequences — getting lost, seriously injuring oneself, or in the worst case, death. What’s 100% sure is that your hike won’t be half as enjoyable as it could have been.

A professional local guide has all the necessary experience and knowledge to make your hike safer and therefore, more enjoyable. They can also enhance the climbing experience with interesting stories and tips, making sure climbing Triglav is a fond memory.

Triglav is amongst the most popular mountains in Slovenia. It has a great symbolic value for us and the saying goes that you are not a true Slovenian until you stand on its summit. Therefore, you can expect a lot of people on the mountain in the high season (July-September), especially on weekends. On week-days, however, it is much more peaceful. Luckily, our guides have some tricks up their sleeves when it comes to avoiding the crowds. Hint: they know exactly when and where to go.

Thousands of people climb Mt.Triglav every year. Some come better prepared than others, who underestimate the climb, which can lead to accidents. But with the right approach, knowing the weather conditions (especially the possibility of thunderstorms and snowfall), with the proper safety equipment and an experienced guide, you can minimize the objective dangers and feel completely safe.

Mountain huts in the Slovenian mountains are very cosy and authentic, but provide only basic comfort. Don’t expect too much luxury. Early bookings are usually rewarded with a room but if all rooms are full there are dormitories. There is no shower and the lavatories are basic. There is running water but it is not drinkable. The food is tasty and local but the menu is limited to a few dishes and drinks.

The earlier the better. The highest season, from July to September, it is not unusual for huts to be fully booked for months ahead. Weekdays are better but we still suggest bookings at least a month in advance. Last-minute bookings are very dependable on the weather – if the forecast is not a perfect bluebird, then some spots usually become available a few days before.

We can’t transfer luggage between the huts since they’re not accessible by car. However, we’re happy to recommend luggage storage solutions for your convenience.

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.

We had a great experience with our guide Ziga. We had to switch up our plans due to weather and the company was flexible and assisted us with an incredible Via Ferrata for our family. Looking forward to returning and checking Triglav off next.

We can’t express how much we love our guide, Luka! He is exceptionally well-organized and experienced(having climbed Triglav since he was just 11, impressive). He managed our expectations and kept us updated on the weather conditions, pace, and rest points, so we always knew how we were progressing, even as first-time Triglav climbers. Thanks to his professionalism, we had the perfect timing and enjoyed the best possible moment on Triglav. We have seen the ibex, cattle, rainbow, sunrise… This is truly one of our most unforgettable experiences in Slovenia!
