So, you’re up for hiking Triglav? Nice!

We Slovenians really appreciate when someone wants to experience this important part of who we are. As they say, you’re not a true Slovene until you climb Triglav.

Besides the great achievement, do you know what’s also awesome?

It’s a great way to explore this fascinating part of Slovenian culture.

And meet new people!

Sharing stories in those cozy mountain huts, taking epic photos – it’s all part of the journey. And as a famous Slovene mountaineer said: “Whoever finds a way, will always carry the goal inside.”

But it’s not your everyday walk in the park, though.

That’s why we’ll share stuff that’ll make your hike way more than just a regular trip.

You know, the little things that make a big difference.

We’ll give you tips on everything from which path to pick to what to pack. We sort out the boring bits, so you can just enjoy your coffee and get psyched for the hike.

You’re probably planning to explore the rest of Slovenia too?

Because of course, Slovenia’s not all about mountains. And we want you to enjoy the whole time you spend in this beautiful country.

Worrying about the logistics of the hike is definitely not part of this enjoyment.

We’ll tell you how you can seamlessly include the Triglav climb into your stay.

Without worry.

And what about guides?

You probably know that everyone recommends having one — but do you really need them?

We’ll cover that topic too.

Quick sneak peak: The guides are not just about directions; they make the hike fun and safe. They know Triglav like their backyard and have the coolest stories to tell. It’s like hiking with a friend who knows all the best spots.

Ready for your Triglav adventure?

Join our webinar — it’s like a laid-back chat about everything that makes Triglav amazing. No salesy stuff, just real talk.

We had great experience with the Triglav Tours team. They were always available, responsive and helpful. They arranged our trip during high season and managed to find solutions were other agencies did not. Thank you Eva and the entire Triglav Tours team!

I have a lot of experience hiking in the mountains but still chose to book a guide, as I have neither the gear nor experience in via ferrata climbing. It turned out to be a really good idea! Prior to the trip, I had contact with the organizer and a video call where I could ask questions, which provided a good basis for deciding which trip was right for me. We were three women + our guide Jakob. On day 2, we started very early before sunrise, which gave us a bit more space on the trail and the pleasure of watching the sun rise over the mountain. Jakob was incredibly good at making our small group function, even though our levels were quite varied. I have a fear of heights, but I didn't feel unsafe at all. It was really nice that there was time to clip us into the wire. Back at the cabin, we had breakfast before heading back down towards the car. An absolutely fantastic trip that requires good physical fitness.

Great professionalism, great gear, great service and great walking companions. One feels as being guided to the top by an elite climber, which to some degree is the case. Strongly recommended!

(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. ⭐️
