Join me on this great 7-day mountaineering and hiking traverse at the heart of the Julian Alps and climb Mount Triglav in Triglav National Park in Slovenia!
Triglav National Park is located in the northwestern part of the country. It is the only national park in Slovenia. Mount Triglav (2864 m) stands almost in the center of the park. It’s the highest mountain in the Julian Alps, and we will make it to the top! We will also hike around the beautiful Triglav Lakes area.
This programme is suitable for all levels of hikers. The shortest option involves 4-5 hours of hiking daily. It’s a great easy traverse!
Besides, every day we have the option of extending our hike. So, if the group wishes to do more, we can even climb a summit along the way. These can be done from the hut where we sleep or sometimes along the way for all the group.
The Mount Triglav summit ascent and descent is planned from the same hut. This means you don’t need to carry via ferrata equipment for the ascent during these 7 days, as we have the equipment in the hut. Also, it gives you the option of skipping the summit ascent easily, if you feel like it.
You can check the day-by-day itinerary below this text. Please note we can extend each day with a climb to a summit along the way, in case the group wishes to do so.
During this traverse, we will stay in typical slovenian mountain huts along the way. Be aware some of them have showers, but some huts higher in the mountains don’t even have running water.

Mountain Guide
I am a IFMGA certified mountain guide, ski instructor, and sports teacher.
I believe guides do their best job when they guide in the mountains they are most familiar with. That is one of the biggest reasons why I specialize in guiding in Slovenia. I climb Triglav more than 25 times per year, which means I have climbed the most famous peak in my country around 400 times.
If you want to climb or ski in the Slovenian mountains, I am the right choice. I guide via ferrata, rock climbing, snow climbing, ice climbing, hikes, freeride skiing, and ski touring. Most of my summer work involves climbing Triglav, and most of my winter work involves Triglav and ski touring around it.
Slovenia offers good options for all of these activities, so you are welcome to take a look at my trips and find something for yourself. If you don't find anything, let me know, and I will see if I can help you!
I speak English. Ich spreche auch ein bisschen Deutsch. Parlo anche un po' di Italiano e hablo también un poco de Español.
If I am not available to guide you, one of the super experienced guides in my team will be your guide.

I had Uroš Grilj as a guide for a 7-day hike and I recommend him wholeheartedly. He is highly skilled and competent. The hike felt safe at all times, even on more exposed routes, for which I had no previous experience and which were nonetheless perfectly comfortable and fun, entirely thanks to him. He constantly adapted the routes to my level and the weather conditions, checked in on me and discussed the options for the next days with me. He is also a very nice person and it was a pleasure to talk to and learn from him. Thank you very much, Uroš!
Stay up-to-date on the best adventures.
