Mount Triglav is undoubtedly Slovenia's best-known and most visited mountain. This 3-day, self-guided trek to Mount Triglav combined with the Triglav Lakes combines the best of both worlds. Self-guided, but with remote support where needed!

Mount Triglav has numerous excellent trails from several surrounding valleys leading to the summit. If you choose this trek, your adventure will start in Bled, according to many the most beautiful place in Slovenia. The route to the summit is challenging, so the satisfaction at the top is all the greater. On a clear and sunny day, you can see far across the Julian Alps from Mount Triglav, all the way to the Grossglockner in the northwest and down to the Adriatic in the south. Once you cross the summit, you'll trek to the Triglav Lakes Valley where you'll pass several Triglav lakes. Your adventure ends at Lake Bohinj where transport will be waiting for you to drive back to Bled. Conquer the roof of Slovenia and visit the most beautiful places in the country!

Turn onto a forest path to arrive at Mostnica Gorge after about a kilometre and a half. A beautiful gorge with clear blue water. You cross the Devil's Bridge towards the Voje Valley. There is a nice saga about this bridge, perhaps a Slovenian you meet along the way will tell you more about it. Once crossed, you continue your journey through the Voje Valley to arrive at your accommodation for the night; Dom Planika pod Triglavom (2401m) in the afternoon. After a hike of about 8 hours, you may enjoy a well-deserved rest here.
