BOHINJ 2024/2025

If you are experienced enough, have checked the weather forecast, have chosen a safe route, are fit and have good equipment, you may still want to venture into the mountain world. 

We recommend visiting the mountains in small groups and following safety recommendations.

We also ask mountain visitors to go into the mountains with common sense and to limit their hikes to their abilities and the equipment they have.

Movement on the Ožarjeni kamen to Pršivec trail is life-threatening due to the crumbly terrain and rockfall.

Before the tour, let’s ask ourselves:

  • How well prepared am I (mentally and physically)? Is the chosen route suitable for me?
  • What is the weather forecast? Poor weather and visibility can increase walking times by up to 10 times. Do I have clothes that will protect me from strong winds, cold and precipitation? Is there a hut, bivouac, shelter on the way where I can retreat?
  • In what condition is the chosen path? Which direction will I walk (north, south, east, west)? Prepare a route plan. Divide the route into smaller sections, allow for breaks and approximate walking times. Create a picture of the route and walk it in your mind.
  • Do I have all the things I need for today’s tour in my rucksack?
  • How far is it and how long will it take me to complete the whole journey? We are only halfway to the top – our goal is to return safely to the valley and home.
  • How steep is the terrain? Will I have to walk it in the parts, which will take more time (but is less tiring)?
  • What is the terrain like? Are there boulders, scree on the way? Is there a bush on the way that will slow me down, or will I be able to get around it?
  • Are there features on the route that I will have to overcome: switchbacks, rivers, steep jumps? Can I bypass them?
  • What dangers might I encounter on the way: precipices, a grassy world, falling rocks?
  • How to walk?
  • What walking speed should I take? Are there children with you?
  • Plan ahead and plan your trip accordingly.
  • Choose a tour that suits your physical and mental fitness, taking into account your health and the health of the tour participants. Pay particular attention if you have any chronic diseases, allergies or are a heart patient.
