Description
Mount Triglav (2864 m) is the highest peak in Slovenia and also a powerful symbol of the country. Join me on this 3-day hiking trip to the top!
I propose to begin our hike in Lepena Valley, a stunning alpine valley inside Triglav National Park. More precisely, our starting point will be Dom dr. Klemena Juga hut.
From there, we'll continue hiking towards Krn Lake, the largest glacial lake in the country. Along the way, we'll see remains of the First World War.
After spending the night at Dom na Komni hut, we'll traverse around the Seven Triglav Lakes Valley.
Finally, the third day we'll reach the top of Mt Triglav. The last hour of hiking will be the most technical and challenging, because some parts of the route are exposed. However, you'll feel safe and can use the help of a still rope.
Then, after reaching the summit of Triglav, we'll descent to Zadnjica valley.
If you want to join me on this 3-day hiking trip to Mt Triglav, please contact me! It will be a pleasure to guide you around some of the most beautiful sceneries in Slovenia.

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.

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.
