3 Days
May - Oct
Mt. Triglav lays in the Julian Alps and it’s the highest peak of Slovenia. With a total altitude of 2.864 meters, that mountain is one of the greatest climbing spot of all the Vrata Valley. In fact, the Vatra Valley is also considered the most stunning alpine valley of the country.
With such scenery around, you have no excuses! Join me in this 3-day via ferrata course in Mt. Triglav.
Then, here below you will find some details of the program:
During the first day I will teach you the basis of via ferrata climbing in a perfect area near the Vrata Valley entrance. You will know how to use the security equipment and all the necessary gear. Besides that, the course will give you some serious practice in different via ferrata routes.
Conforming the course progresses we will be approaching to the breath-taking North wall of Mt. Triglav for the biggest goal. Therefore, on the second day, a harder via ferrata route will lead us to the mountain hut where we’ll spend the night. It is located just at the top of the North side of Mt. Triglav. Now we are closer than ever!
Finally, in our last day you will climb the via ferrata route to the summit of Mt. Triglav, always under my supervision. I will guarantee you can take the best from that experience. Because of that, I’ll put all my climbing knowledge at your service. Once at the top, you will enjoy a incredible landscape and of course, the great satisfaction of having achieved such a big objective!
I have no doubt this 3-day via ferrata course will be really useful. I will teach you all the necessary techniques for future greater climbs.
All you have to do in getting in touch with me now. I will be waiting your message to plan your next climbing adventure in Mt. Triglav!

Mountain Guide
I grew up in Slovenia with Julian Alps as my backyard. Expeditions to Himalaya started when I was 17, started steep skiing at 15, climbing big walls at 13 and it was a natural progression to BASE jump and to become a mountain guide- a job that feeds my soul. I have been to several climbing expeditions to Peru, Kyrgyzstan, Tibet, Nepal and India.
I'm an IFMGA qualified mountain guide as well as an instructor for future guides, ski instructor, certified helicopter operator and a Heli Ski guide. Although my work took me all over the world my favorite place is still in the Julian Alps. Sharing the hidden places in my Home Mountains with my clients, guiding and teaching them to explore on their own is has been my biggest passion for the past few years.
Mountains are my passion. Winter or summer, climbing, flying through the air or skiing, it doesn't matter to me if I am guiding or having fun with friends. I simply get spaced out when I am in the mountains. Guiding for me is not a job - it is a state of mind and a lifestyle.

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.
