Mount Viševnik, a notable two-thousand-meter peak, showcases stunning alpine views within Triglav National Park. Unlike other winter climbs that require advanced skills, Viševnik offers an exciting yet accessible challenge for those with basic knowledge of ice axe and crampon use. It’s a fantastic way to experience snow-covered peaks without the need for extensive mountaineering experience.
Winter in Triglav National Park is a unique experience. To truly appreciate the beauty of this mountainous landscape, you need to see it firsthand. Viševnik is accessible year-round, but a winter ascent adds a special sense of charm and adventure.
The climb depends on weather conditions, but the area typically offers favorable conditions for hikers. With an experienced guide, you'll start from an elevated point at Pokljuka Plateau, making the ascent manageable for those with moderate experience.
The route follows a well-marked snowy path, featuring a moderately steep but manageable climb that allows for a steady pace. Upon reaching the ridge, you will enjoy sweeping views of the snow-covered peaks.
From the summit, you can take in a breathtaking panorama of Mt. Triglav, the Julian Alps, the Pokljuka Plateau, the Bohinj Mountains, the northern Sava Plain, and even the distant Karawanks and Kamnik-Savinja Alps.
The route is technically simple but visually rewarding, making it perfect for those seeking a manageable winter adventure. This climb also serves as excellent preparation for more challenging future hikes.
IMPORTANT: Experience with crampons and an ice axe, including fall arrest techniques, is required.

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!
We did the two day Triglav tour. Our Guide was Jakob and he was excellent. He taught us a lot about Slovenia and he also cared a lot about the area which was nice to see. He kept us safe, encouraged us and he had good humour. We hiked up to the Krederica Hut and it took us 4 hours. Food there was great! We decided to go for the summit the next morning and it was amazing. Not as intimidating as it looks and totally safe with the via ferrata equipment and a good Guide.
Had the best time on my 1 day hike up Triglav! It was beautiful, my guide Gorazd was friendly and very organized. We started the drive from Bled at 2am since there was rain in the forecast for 12pm. We made it to the summit about 1 hour before the clouds came in and blocked the view. Perfect timing! Speaking with the team over email was also great and they helped me get something booked last minute. Highlight of my trip to Slovenia and maybe of my whole 9 weeks in Europe. If you have the stamina I recommend the 1 day trek. We spent about 11 hours actually hiking but the trail isn’t very demanding.
Had an amazing day with Uroš. He was very friendly and easy to communicate with. Even though he had a child due a few days before we did the climb he was super relaxed and lots of fun to talk to. Made me feel very comfortable the entire time and had lots of information about the location and different history of the area. 10/10 would recommend and a very heartfelt thank you from me for making sure I was safe and we completed the day. I hope one day you can make it to Alaska my friend :)
Our trip this past August was one that we will never forget. Jakub was a fantastic guide who always kept our spirits up, especially with the via ferata. It was our first time climbing a mountain and he kept checking in on us to make sure we were doing ok. 10/10 would recommend!!
