> Spend the night at Dom na Kredarica (2515m), the highest mountain hut in the country
Mount Triglav is located in the Triglav National Park, an absolute must for adventure-seekers. During this trek you are accompanied by an experienced English-speaking guide. We start and end the trek at the same point, in the beautiful Krma Valley. We sleep in Triglavski dom na Kredarici (2515m), with 300 seats and ditto beds, this is one of the largest mountain huts in Slovenia.
Don't get too cosy in the evening, as the next morning you will get up early to start the most challenging part of the route. The last 400m to the summit are the most challenging and is along via ferrata. Once at the top, take a picture of the Aljaz Tower from different angles. Don't be told that something special is waiting for you inside! In fact, according to old tradition, at the top you will be treated to some supposed taps to the butt with a rope, that while just poking your head through the door of the tower. You follow the same route back to the valley, where you will be taken back to your accommodation. You've made it!
