Grančišče via ferrata in Mojstrana

Come join Matevz, an IFMGA mountain guide, on an exciting half-day via ferrata trip in Mojstrana, a beautiful alpine town in Slovenia.

Julian Alps

1/2 Day

Jun - Sep

Intermediate

Beginner

Description

Only at a 5 minute hike from the alpine village of Mojstrana, you’ll find a very enjoyable via ferrata route on the wall of Grančišče hill.

Protected climbing routes provide a unique approach to the mountains. Besides, they are a fun activity that can also be done in family!

This is a half-day trip perfect for beginners, as you don’t need any prior experience or specific technical skills. We’ll get there after a 25 min drive and a short hike, while the climbing part will only take us 2 hours. So expect a total amount of 3-4 hours. Great news if you want to start the day with a powerful adventure and then follow your trip with other activities.

From the top of Grančišče you’ll enjoy wonderful views of Mojstrana and the surrounding peaks of the Julian Alps.

We can also make a stop to visit Mojstrana mountaineering museum along the way.

Mountain Guide

I’m a certified IFMGA mountain guide and canyoning guide living in the small and famous town of Bled, in Slovenia.

I started rock climbing at the age of 5. From that time on, the mountains became my playground. During my childhood, I took part in many rock climbing competitions. When I was 12, my twin brother and I did our first multi-pitch climb on a 350 m wall.

By the age of 16, I started competing in ice climbing world cups and later on skydiving junior world cups. In fact, in 2008 I became the world champion at the UIAA Ice Climbing Overall Ranking in speed ice climbing.

I climbed in many different countries like Peru, South Korea, Switzerland, France and Italy. However, Slovenia is the place I like the most.

Among other significant achievements, I did the first winter ascent (from the bottom of the wall) in Sphinx, the most difficult route in the mythical North Face of Mt Triglav. Besides, I got the first place for males at the IFMGA International mountain guide climbing championship in 2017.

I like sharing moments with people, especially in mountains. Feel free to join me in the highest mountains, steepest walls and many other Alpine wonders. I’m flexible, so we can also research places in other countries worldwide. Deep canyons, emerald rivers, beautiful mountains, great people, a good laugh, you name it.

I look forward to meeting you!

John

Thank you Explore Share. Great organisation. No problems at all. Will definitely book through you again. John

Brittany

This hike was a highlight of our trip! Matevz was an amazing guide. The one day hike up Mount Triglav was more challenging than we expected. Matevz is very experienced, which made us felt safe during the via ferrate section. He was patient and encouraging of us the entire way.

Vasu

I had a very nice experience with explore-share. They were able to answer any questions I had about the trek like reaching the trailhead or equipment, etc. They also responded really fast. Matevz was also an amazing guide, helping us with the route when took a wrong route to the hut and was very clear and honest in his communication. He also ensured that we maintained a good pace to the summit without being too pushy.

Thor

We had an amazing time climbing with Matevz near Bled! He took us to his hometown crag and found us several routes that suited our skill level. Strongly recommended.

Nina

Stunning hike up Debela Pec with our guide Timotei from Altitude Activities. Everything was exactly as we hoped - super kind and friendly guide, beautiful scenery, fun hiking in the snow and a great traditional Slovenian lunch at the hut on the way down. Great experience!
