Slovenian Mountain Trail

The Slovenian Mountain Trail (Slovenska planinska pot) is a legendary 600+ km route crossing Slovenia from Maribor to the Adriatic coast. Typically taking 30 to 40 days to complete, it weaves through Pohorje’s forests, the Kamnik-Savinja Alps, the Julian Alps, and the Karst. The trail isn’t just long, it’s demanding, with several via ferrata sections on peaks like Grintovec, Prisojnik, and Triglav, where fixed cables and ladders aid climbers on steep rock faces. Along the way, hikers stay in cozy mountain huts, experience diverse landscapes, and immerse themselves in Slovenia’s alpine culture, making it both a physical challenge and an unforgettable journey.

💰 Money-Saving Tip

Grab a Slovenian Alpine Association “B” membership in Ljubljana for just €36 and slash your mountain hut costs by about 20% to 50%! It works all over Europe and Turkey, plus it includes mountain rescue and accident insurance. A few nights on the trail and it’s already paid for itself.
