Tucked into the northwestern corner of Triglav National Park, on Slovenia’s border with Italy, Mount Jalovec is one of the highest and most scenic destinations in the whole country!
Rising to 2,645 meters in elevation, Jalovec is the sixth highest peak in Slovenia and provides incredible views of the tallest mountains in the Julian Alps, the Dolomites and the Austrian Hohe Tauern.
On a clear day, one can even see the Grossglockner, Austria’s highest peak.
Our adventure to the top of this mighty mountain begins shortly after we meet up at a pre-determined location and transfer to Vrsic pass (1,675 m).
From here, we will make an incredibly scenic approach above the Trenta valley and to the Zavetisce Pod Spickom mountain hut at 2,064 m. Expect to hike from 4 to 6 hours.
The following day is the highlight of the trip. Getting an early start, we will begin hiking, climbing and scrambling to the top. Though very little technical know-how is needed to make the ascent, a high level of physical fitness is required. It will take about 3 hours to get to the summit.
After spending some time at the top, marveling at the incredible views, we will begin the 5 hour descent back into the Tamar valley. The views on the way down are also quite good, so keep the cameras handy!
So what are you waiting for? Book now for this incredibly scenic and exciting 2-day mountaineering ascent of Mount Jalovec!

Climbing with guide Guillaume was absolutely a highlight of my 2-week Europe vacation. Originally, we were planning on climbing in the Calanques, but the park was closed due to wind and fire danger. Guillaume chose another amazing location (Pic de Bretagne) based on my climbing abilities and preferences and kindly offered train station pick-up and hotel drop off, which I appreciated very much. The multi-pitch route we did was not only fun but also the right amount of challenge, which I thoroughly enjoyed. The communication from the team (Gauthier) was prompt and clear—highly recommend!

Luis Silva was a great climbing guide and belayer! He taught me how to do moves that were difficult and encouraged me to try routes that were challenging for me! Because of his encouragement, I managed to complete these routes! I really enjoyed the climbs and completed 8 routes in the Sesimbra/Azoia area. The weather was perfect, no direct sun and cool enough to enjoy the climbs. Explore-Share made booking an outdoor climbing experience in Lisbon extremely easy. Luis, our guide, was fantastic, and the platform’s organization was flawless.

We had Léo as a guide for our day climb in Fonty. We were blessed with a knowledgeable, warm, and instructive guide. Communication with Léo and Ivan was smooth and swift. Explore-Share was excellent in arranging everything for our day climb. The communication was quick, and the platform was easy to use, making our adventure stress-free.

Patrick was a great guide. He took us on an intermediate Via Ferrata at Passo Sella. Renato was quick to respond with any outreach on the Explore-Share platform. The booking process was straightforward, and once Patrick was confirmed, all went well. It was a wonderful experience, and I’d highly recommend the platform.
