Triglav 4-day guided splitboarding traverse

Join a guide from the Mitja Šorn Team for 4 days on the only real hut-to-hut splitboarding traverse in Slovenia, around Mount Triglav.

Julian Alps

4 Days

Description

I invite you to join me in the only real hut to hut splitboarding traverse in Slovenia, around Mount Triglav. Many mountain huts are closed during winter. But we will spend two nights in different mountain huts and one in a winter room in Prehodavci, equipped with food, gas and blankets (so we don’t need to carry anything extra).

This trip goes across the Julian Alps, from Bohinj to Mojstrana, at the bottom of the highest mountain in the country: Mount Triglav. We will make the whole traverse off the beaten tracks. In fact, we should not see anybody during the 4 days.

The itinerary goes through the Triglav National Park almost entirely.

You need to have at least some prior splitboarding experience. But you don’t need to be a really good snowboarder to join this tour. We might use crampons and ice axe when going up slopes of 40°. You should be able to go down 30° slopes. Skiers are also welcome.

I know the region and the National Park very well. I will make sure you come back home safely. I will also share with you many stories and information about the area, the local culture, the landscapes and mountains surrounding us during the trip.

So please get in touch with me for any additional information and if you want to book this tour with me.

Or you can also check other trips I guide around this area, like my 1+day splitboarding tour in Kranjska Gora, Slovenia or my Julian Alps 4-day guided tour with splitboard.

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.

Mitja was awesome. I wouldn’t hesitate to use his services again as he is very knowledgeable and capable. He went above and beyond to make the trip as enjoyable as possible and even to help with planning the rest of the vacation around the country. Very personable and friendly. Thank you Mitja for the incredible experience of summiting Mt Triglav.

Fantastic hike with a great guide (Mitja) and beautiful scenery, an experience we will never forget. 🙌🤩

The trip is amazing, Mitja is the best guide ever, his life is dedicated to nature and mountains and he transmits it all the time making you feel a lot of love for Triglav. The accommodations are more than impressive its like a luxury hotel in the middle of nowhere. It was my first mountain climbing ever and he made it possible even for beginners and well... I can't say anything about Triglav but awesome is a beautiful mountain and been at the top is a life experience

Mitja is an awesome guide! I felt his good energy and he patiently answered all questions. Made the hike down very interesting. Besides having 2 great days out in the mountains I also learned about the country and his profession. Highly recommended!

We had a brilliant trip with Mitja climbing Triglav. He is a fantastic guide - extremely knowledgeable about Triglav and the best way to climb it. We did the whole ascent in one day, stopping at the hut for a few hours to have lunch while it rained. We then summitted in the late afternoon where the clouds cleared and we had a beautiful view. We hiked back down from the hut the next day after a lovely evening in the hut. It was a great time of year to go - less crowds and enjoyed hiking in the snow. We thoroughly recommend doing the trip with Mitja or his team, he is very experienced, friendly, considerate and made our trip even better than we had hoped. Thank you again!
