Hiking in Slovenia - Julian Alps

We classify the hiking as moderately challenging and quite typical for the Alps. You need good basic fitness and endurance for daily stages of over 20 km and 900 meters of elevation, but several days are considerably calmer. The terrain alternates between forest trails, gravel roads and alpine paths where sure footing is required. Some stages can be shortened with local transport or transfer.

You stay at pleasant 3–4-star hotels as well as a simpler guesthouse on Pokljuka or in Trenta. The style varies between modern alpine hotels and family-run inns. The accommodations are located in small villages or directly in nature. Rooms always have private bathrooms and breakfast is hearty and locally influenced.
