Ski tours on the Triglav with a private mountain guide

Powder and firn away from the mainstream
Level
    Ski tours on the Triglav - not for beginners, as many peaks and slopes are steep and the approaches are often difficult. It is particularly advisable to be accompanied by a mountain guide.
    The cirque below the impressive Triglav north face is like a refrigerator. You can't hope for a ray of sunshine here, but you can hope for preserved, cold snow. A trip to Slovenia is always worthwhile!
    The oversized piton with the carabiner is the clear sign of recognition: Here you are in Slovenia, directly below the impressive north face of the Triglav. With your VIVALPIN mountain guide, it's about 2 hours from here to the start of a fantastic descent.
    In some steep sections, you will have to strap your skis onto your rucksack. You will be rewarded with a long, challenging descent. Ski tour on the Triglav with a VIVALPIN mountain guide.

Recommendation 6 days, 5-8 participants, level 2

Visevnik, Lipanski vrh and Sitna Glava: the ski tour ascents to these 2,000-metre peaks in the Triglav National Park are as fantastic as they are difficult to pronounce. There is plenty of snow, sparse forests and generous slopes. And that's just the beginning. Because these peaks are more of an introduction to the world of Triglav. There, steep cirques between rock faces, mighty firn flanks and often exposed, bold summits dominate. All of these tours, even the easier ones, are full of adventure. This starts with the approach to remote valleys far away from civilization, which can have a massive impact on tour planning depending on road closures.

On the other hand, the rule also applies: the further you have to go, the fewer tracks you will find on the wide slopes above. So at the Luknja Pass below the north face of Triglav, you combine the bad luck of the long valley approach with the good fortune of huge untracked slopes... Speaking of untracked slopes: you'll hardly find them in the Kriz Kar. This tour is not one of the top tours in Slovenia for nothing, thanks to its fridge-snow-preservation character. The cirque is easily accessible and so generously dimensioned that you will almost always find a strip of fresh powder. 

We organize the complete ski touring trip with all our know-how on your desired date and in the best possible bases. You benefit from our experience, the tailor-made offer and the individual guidance in a homogeneous group.

"I went mountain climbing in Slovenia for the first time in 2015 and was more than impressed. The highest point in the country is Mount Triglav. Although it is "only" 2,864 m high, it is wild and inaccessible from all sides. Due to its exposed location in the south-east of the Alps, the entire region is very snowy, and the countless cirques and peaks are perfect for ski tours and exciting mountain experiences in all seasons."
