Latest news May 2010
For summer 2010 we offer 3 scheduled guided trips, starting on 11 July, 8 August and 28 August. Please join us to explore these dramatic mountains.

The Julian Alps are a range of limestone mountains in Slovenia, near the borders with Italy and Austria. The highest point of the range is Triglav at 2,864m.

This trekking holiday approaches the Julian Alps as a mountain range to be explored in depth. Your group immerses itself in the forests, high rocky valleys, ridges and peaks, arriving each night at a new hut. A particular benefit of trekking the Julian Alps with us is that the group's itinerary is very flexible. Our aim is to run this trek in the style of a group of friends, with the freedom to decide which paths to take according to people's wishes.

A large network of huts is spread across the mountains, making the Julian Alps an excellent destination for a multi-day hut tour. The trip begins with a day-walk in the hills above the Bohinj valley. After this introduction to the area, the group sets off on the 5-day trek. Arriving back in the valley we enjoy a celebratory meal in one of the restaurants near Lake Bohinj.

Mountain huts provide the group's accommodation for the 4 nights of the trek. For the first two nights and the last night of the holiday we stay in a friendly family-run 4-star hotel in Bohinj.
