Snowshoeing in the Julian Alps, Slovenia
A beginner snowshoe walk through snowy forest and meadows in the Julian Alps, with pickup from Ljubljana or Bled and all gear included.
Snowshoeing is the easiest way into the winter mountains without skis. You walk on wide frames strapped to your boots, which keep you on top of deep snow, so anyone who can hike can do it.
This guided trip starts from Ljubljana or Bled and heads into the snowy forests and meadows of the Julian Alps around Triglav National Park. The guide picks the route on the day to match the snow and the weather, and groups are small, with a maximum of eight people.
It runs from December to March, weather permitting. Snowshoes, poles and transport are included, so you only need warm clothes and waterproof boots.
