A rare chance taken. 

What colour will its new coat be? 

Not a painting. 

Videos from four climbs at a relatively quiet but still not too challenging time to make it to the top of Slovenia. 

STA, 20 August 2018 - Mt Triglav, Slovenia's highest peak and a solemn symbol of the Slovenian nation, will be without its landmark tower for the first time after 123 years this autumn. The Aljaž Tower will be taken to the valley for the first time for the much needed repair on the metal construction. 

A place to take a break when going over the Julian Alps. 

Another way to enjoy Slovenia 

In the kingdom of the goldhorn. 

Katja Rogelj is a force of nature, with a ready smile and easy laugh. Wildly enthusiastic about her life and work in the beauty of Triglav National Park, and Soča Valley in particular, I met up with her just as the season was about to begin, and she was kind enough to answer some questions about how she got into the business, what services she offers, and whether it’s all as dangerous as it looks to these eyes.
