Description

The Cop Pillar is the most demanding and impressive climbing route in Mount Triglav’s north face. I invite you to join me on this challenging ascent, climbing an impressive wall in the highest peak in Slovenia in just one day.

Located in the Slovenian Julian Alps, Mount Triglav is the most popular climb in the country, with many ascent routes to the summit, but the Cop Pillar route is definitely the ultimate test to your alpine climbing skills.

Bear in mind this 1-day challenging ascent is only suitable for highly skilled climbers with an excellent fitness level. The climb usually demands a really long day. It takes about 12 hours long roundtrip, with 1500m of ascent and 1500m of descent. Starting and finishing the tour with headlamps is not unusual, but if you’re fit enough you will get an experience to be remembered.

The hardest pitches are at the very end of this famous route. The ascent involves 1000m climbing up to VI+ (6a) with traditional protection. It is recommended a sport climbing level experience of about 6b/6c.

So, if you are up for this amazing climb, just send me a request. Book your trip and come join me for an unforgettable 1-day climbing experience on Triglav’s North Face.

Mountain Guide

I was born in Ljubljana in 1988 and began climbing during high school. In 2010, I became a climbing instructor, after years of spending my free time on the walls of the Alps, both in Slovenia and abroad. I studied Geography at university, but mountaineering, climbing and now mountain guiding have always been my main occupation. I've received multiple awards, including the Piolet D'Or. I'm a fully certified IFMGA guide.

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.
