Climbing Mt. Triglav in winter is an extraordinary adventure. The landscape becomes a true winter wonderland, offering challenges and stunning beauty. With an experienced guide ensuring your safety, all you need is basic familiarity with using an ice axe and crampons to tackle this memorable journey.
Mt. Triglav, standing at 2,864 meters above sea level, is a popular goal for hikers and mountaineers, particularly in winter. With fewer crowds, the experience is more tranquil, allowing for a deeper appreciation of the Julian Alps' beauty.
When weather conditions allow, the journey can begin. The snow-covered route to Triglav Lodge at Kredarica is relatively straightforward, offering breathtaking views of the valleys and peaks throughout the climb.
Reaching the Kredarica hut in winter is a significant accomplishment. This high-altitude lodge serves as the overnight base. Although officially closed during winter, the resident meteorologists welcome guests and provide a warm meal.
Keep in mind that the lodge is unheated, so a sleeping bag is essential, though blankets are also available for extra warmth.
With the guidance of our mountain guide on the ascent to Triglav's summit, you will navigate snowy and rocky terrain using climbing ropes, ice axes, and crampons.
The climb depends on favorable weather. Upon reaching the summit, you will be greeted with breathtaking panoramic winter views. Afterward, you will carefully descend to the valley, ensuring a memorable experience of summiting Slovenia's highest peak in winter.
NOTE: Experienced and quick mountaineers can do this tour in one day if the conditions are right.

(Also reviewed on Google) 6/5 stars for Jakob and the two-day Triglav tour we did last week. Our tour was a group of three (me, my friend, and a third that joined solo) and we had a blast. We did the two day Triglav summit tour. We went up on Day One in around 6 hours, adding and extending breaks to accommodate the group. Then we summitted for sunrise on Day Two which was a fantastic idea. Then if was a little less than four hours down. Grad provided and an overview of how to use it. Krederica hut was huge and quite basic, but you’re there for the hike not the hut. We felt great having such an experienced and confident guide in Jakob; could’ve done it alone but so happy we didn’t. Overall, fully recommend hiking Triglav, using Triglav Tours, and doing any hike with Jakob as the guide. ⭐️
6/5 stars for Jakob and the two-day Triglav tour we did last week. Our tour was a group of three (me, my friend, and a third that joined solo) and we had a blast. Jakob was a fantastic guide—knowledgeable and confident, clearly comfortable on the mountain, personable, attentive to the group… we all developed a fun rapport quickly, joking and chatting along the way. He was great about reading the group too and making changes when we needed it. We went up on Day One in around 6 hours, adding and extending breaks to accommodate, changing up the pace as needs changed. Then we summitted for sunrise on Day Two which was a fantastic idea of Jakob’s—it gave our legs some time to rest and brought some truly incredible views before the crowds set in on the via ferrata section. Then if was a little less than four hours down. Overall, fully recommend hiking Triglav, using Triglav Tours, and doing any hike with Jakob as the guide. ⭐️
We did the 2-day guided Triglav hike and would absolutely recommend the tour. There were three women in our group (my friend and I and a third solo traveler) and we all enjoyed the experience immensely. Our guide, Jakob, was excellent and very helpful as none of us had ever done a via ferrata before and there were varying levels of confidence over the prospect. We had sunny weather both days and ended up climbing Triglav to watch sunrise the second day, which I highly recommend. Overall a great experience!
Definitely was nervous for my first via ferrata, and even more so when my stomach became unsettled on the excursion. But Jakob walked us through it all and gave me just enough motivation to think I could make it! Enough self doubt remained to stay focused! Haha The hut had all the necessities, like a hostel, and the hike was gorgeous and tough! Tough enough to truly have the sense of accomplishment at the end! Well worth it! Thank you!!!
