Triglav North Face
Triglav North face has over 130 established climbing routes. The dificulty of the routes is ranging from beginners to advanced level. The most popular is Slovenian route (grade III), which is very sutable for beginners. Right after the Slovenian route is Short German route (grade IV+) which is a bit more difficult than Slovenian route. German route can be extended into a Long German route that leads right to the top of Triglav and is the longest route in Triglav, covering no less than 1300 m of climbing.
Slovenian route
1 client → 390 €/person | 2 clients → 245 €/person
Slovenian route is the easiest on Triglav's North face. It was climbed for the first time in 1908. All the way from the foot to the top of the wall, the route follows natural passages in the surroundings of the Slovenian gully and avoids major diffuculties. While climbing, we can enjoy wonderful views of the steep slabs and the overhangs on the right side of the face. The Slovenian route ends right at the top of the Slovenian pillar, almost at the height of Kredarica hut. Usually the descent takes us along the path over Prag back to Vrata valley.
The price includes guiding, technical equipment for clients if needed and transport inbetween Kranjska Gora and Bled.
| Technical grade | Lenght | Time car-to-car |
| II/III | 800 m | 7 - 9 h |
Additional tour options (regardless of the number of clients)
- Approach to the top of Triglav via ferata and descent the same day (+ 170 €),

Short German Route
1 client → 430 €/person | 2 clients → 265 €/person
The German route starts at the same point as the Slovenian route. At the top of the first pitch, routes split. The German route turns to the right, towards the central part of the Triglav North face, and climbs over countless pillars to the German pilar, atop which log book can be found. Shortly after this, the Short German Route turns left towards the most difficult but at the same time the most beautiful part of the route, the exit variant Zimmer-Jahn. The top of the exit variant represents junction with the Slovenian route, which brings us to the edge of the face in a few minutes.
The price includes guiding, technical equipment for clients if needed and transport inbetween Kranjska Gora and Bled.

Long German Route (to the top of Triglav)
1 client → 690 €/person | 2 clients → 395 €/person
The Long German route is the only route in Triglav's north wall that leads to the top of Triglav and is the longest on the wall at 1300 meters. This certainly makes it one of the most magnificent and at the same time ambitious goals of such difficulty in our country. After climbing the Short German route to the German pilar, the Long German route, instead of going over Zimmer-Jahn exit, continues to the right.
Next, we climb quite exposed central part of the Triglav North face, where we really feel the majesty of this limestone mass. Soon we reach Kugy's ledge, which marks the end of Triglav's north face. The only thing waiting for us is the very last part of the route - the climb to the top of Triglav, for which there are several variants. Climbing along the NW ridge became the most popular, as the rock in this area is the most compact.
