Description

Mt Mangart (2678 m) is a peak of the Julian Alps, lying in the border between Italy and Slovenia. Are you ready for an adventure there?

Due to its easy access, it’s a very popular peak among climbers, specially during the summer months. In fact, a big part of the traverse can be done by car, taking the Mangart road (the highest alpine road in Slovenia) that climbs up to 2000 m height.

The road ends at the Mangart saddle. From there, we’ll hike about 30 minutes until we reach the entrance of the Slovenian via ferrata route.

It will take between 1 to 2 hours to complete the route. Even though it’s quite technical, it’s still suitable for beginners. Finally, we’ll descent on the Italian route, back to the Mangart saddle.

Would you like to climb this beautiful peak of the Julian Alps? Please, get in touch with me so we can start organizing our trip.

You can also climb Mt Mangart by taking the via ferrata route on the Italian side.

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.

Igor is very attentive guide and he was with me at every step. He made pictures with me along the way and he pushed me to achieve my goal. Thanks! All the entire process to booking was very easy from choosing the trip to descending back in town in safety and they are amazing team, because I have a tone of questions and they have a tone of patience. Thanks again, guys! I will return for via ferrata on Triglav.
