Triglav National Park

Triglav National Park is one of the most im¬portant natural treasures of Slovenia. It is named after the sym¬bolic mountain Triglav (2,864 m) and is one of the oldest parks in Europe. The first protec¬tion attempts date back to the year 1906. Thepark covers nearly 84,000 hectares, almost the entire territory of the eastern Julian Alps. The Triglav National Park (TNP) is the only Slovenian national park. The management of the Triglav National Park is the responsability of the Triglav national Park Public Institution, based in Bled. The national park is a model example of successful harmonisation of different interests focused on a common goal: well-preserved nature, landscape and cultural heritage. The values of a national park are a motive and an attractive goal for visitors who respect the exceptional nature and cultural heritage as well as the peace and quiet of the area.

As a nature lover, Triglav Park was on my activities list during my trip in Slovenia. The park is in the Julian Alps, therefore offers the typical beautiful alpine landscape :) There are different paths and you can find information on the official website and at the "ticket office" at the entrance. My friend and I are quite active and we chose a medium path, which was actually very easy, on the way up, we hiked along a small stream, arriving at a waterfall. We had a packed lunch with us, and on the way back, we stopped for a drink in a typical place, which really added to the visit. The park is very well looked after. Nature and photography lovers are going to love this place :)

Pericnik Waterfall

Reviewed By SimonaSLO

There are two big waterfalls, one over another. The path is good and easy, I recommend trainers. One of the waterfall has a path all around it, which is fantastic that you can stand under the stone and the waterfall falls down.

Triglav

Reviewed By JoonaPaatalo - Turku, Finland

Summiting Triglav doesn’t necessarily require climbing experience before, but it’s relatively easy to climb if you just take some things seriously. The views from the top and all along the route are stunning so you’ll get your reward! We made a 2-day climb from Krma valley (Kovinarska koča). First day we (22yo basic sporty guy and his 48yo not so sporty dad) ascended 1600 meters to Kredarica hut, which took about 6 hours. The trail is easy terrain, just uphill ofc. The next day I summited the last 300 meters, and to there and back took about 3 hours, but only because I couldn’t help but stay up there quite long just taking photos and enjoying the views. Descending from Kredarica hut to Krma valley took about 3,5 hours. The terrain for the final part from Kredarica is much more difficult and there is possinility to even fatal injury if you slip and fall. For this reason there is via ferrara, which you can use to secure yourself. To put it short: terrain on the way to top isn’t so tough you’d climbing gear to get up, but you might feel more secure having harness and a loop with carabiner to attach to via ferrata. Like somebody said in the web, ”whatever you do, take proper shoes”. That’s true and means take shoes that support your ankle. The most of the accidents there happen because of bad shoes. Consider also taking some warm clothes and waterproof jacket even if there would be 25C down the mountain. We climbed in august in such a weather but up there was 0C, snow and cold wind. Usually during july, august and september there is no snow, but at higher altitudes the weather can change in hours. Also remember to take enough water with you! If climbing to the top and spending the night at the mountain, I recommend sleeping at Kredarica. It costs 20+ euros per person and you can also buy food from there. Notice, that you can only pay by cash there! I highly recommed climbing Triglav if you want to have a stunning experience of Slovenia’s beautiful nature. Everyone with basic fitness are able to do it (summertime), but don’t underestimate the mountain, there are people who have died there. With common sense and proper equipment it’s perfectly safe and great experience!
