Looking for new challenges in the mountains? Devil's Pillar is a classic rock climbing route in the Julian Alps that you should definitely add to your bucket list!
It is a rock tower on the huge north wall of Prisojnik (2547 m), which is a very popular peak inside Triglav National Park.
Devil's Pillar is an interesting and demanding grade V route (in the UIAA grading system). In fact, it's 500 m high. However, all the effort has a reward: at the top, you will enjoy some stunning views of the surrounding peaks.
The starting point for this trip will be Koča na Gozdu mountain hut (1226 m). From there, we'll take the Hanza route (one of the climbing routes to Prisank mountain). Finally, after almost 2 hours of hiking, we'll reach a large snow field at the foot of the pillar.
Once on the rock tower, the total climbing time will be between 5 to 7 hours.
Please contact me if you want to climb the Devil's Pillar. I can assure you it will be an enjoyable experience!
You can also check other trips I offer in the Julian Alps, like rock climbing in the Cop Pillar, in Triglav's north face.

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.
