Description

Situated on Slovenia's northwestern border with Italy, the Uršiči Pass at Kanin is the ideal ski touring destination!

Starting from Sella Nevea, we will take a ski lift up to the Gilbert Hut at 1,850 meters (6,070 feet), where we will enjoy a hot beverage before heading out onto the slopes, where the real fun will begin.

From the hut, we will make a quick descent into the Bela peč pass, before crossing the small alpine valley and ascending the other side. From here, we will turn south and continue on through the valley, enjoying the stunning scenery as we go, until we arrive at a ridge.

We will then ascend up to the ridge and follow it west before making another 50 meter (165 foot) ascent up to a scenic overlook, from which we will have breathtaking views farther north into the Julian Alps.

After taking in the view, we will make one of various descents back toward the Gilbert Hut and continue on from there back into the valley from which we started.

So what are you waiting for? Book now for this unforgettable half-day easy ski touring adventure to Uršiči Pass!

Aspirant Guide

I am an aspirant IFMGA mountain guide, born in 1987, from Vuhred, now living in Ljubljana, Slovenia. I have been discovering mountains from an early age. I started climbing at the age of 15 and now it has become a way of life.

During my active years as an alpinist, I have been on four expeditions to the Andes, Himalaya and China and I was nominated for the Piolet d’or for the ascent to Xulian Feng in China.

I like all types of alpine activities such as alpine climbing, sport climbing, ski touring, etc. Overall I like to spend my time in the mountains. That is why I decided I not only want to climb for myself, but to guide other people, so they can experience what I have until now.
My mission as a mountain guide is to provide you the safest way to discover mountains, so that you can explore the vertical world in a different way. I will guide you to more or less populated mountain trails and climbing routes.
